In the aftermath of former Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger’s passing at age 99, the Ethereum-based MUNGER token witnessed huge activity. The token was launched within 15 minutes of Munger’s death and it experienced an astonishing 31,000% surge. MUNGER immediately crashed 97.6% in value and is now valued at $0.00000002856.
MUNGER’s rapid descent
The coin’s market capitalization plummeted to a small $18,000, with liquidity evaporating to approximately $13,000. In a stark contrast to its initial hype, market activity dwindled. It saw a drastic drop from a staggering $3.57 million in the first 24 hours to a mere $23,000 in the next day.

The once buzzing coin, characterized by its volatile pump-and-dump nature, experienced a rapid decline. Only 12 transactions were recorded in the last six hours.
MUNGER’s roller-coaster journey mirrors the fate of many meme coins. Such coins are known for their tendency to inflate dramatically based on news or pop culture phenomena, only to collapse swiftly. In this case, it took less than 48 hours for the Munger-inspired meme coin to shed majority of its value.
The rise and fall of MUNGER serves as another cautionary tale. Market participants should exercise caution and recognize the inherent risks associated with meme coins and their susceptibility to news developments and events.
In the words of Charlie Munger, who dismissed crypto as “worthless,” “no good,” “disgusting,” “evil,” and “massively stupid,” perhaps there is a nugget of wisdom to be looked upon. He even compared it to prostitution once.
The wreckage of MUNGER tokend short-lived glory is just proving him right. The allure of quick gains in the crypto wild west is tempting, just like many penny stocks or under the radar bonds which give quick returns.
