🔴 GME meme coin, inspired by GameStop, surged to over $100 million in market cap amid GameStop’s trading frenzy, reaching 2,291% growth in a week. This coincided with GameStop’s shares rallying due to Keith Gill’s return, causing another short squeeze. GameStop’s CEO, Ryan Cohen, saw $1 billion in unrealized capital gains. Cointelegraph article here states Memecoin frenzy extends beyond GME, with Pepe and Dogwifhat memecoins also rallying.

The token, which initially dropped to near-zero, saw its market capitalization reach tens of millions of dollars.

- Mt. Gox is set to distribute 142,000 BTC, 143,000 BCH, and fiat currency to creditors who lost funds in its 2011 hack. The distribution, scheduled for October 31, 2024, follows years of legal proceedings. Some creditors have already received fiat payments, sparking discussions on whether to sell or hold their Bitcoin. Despite market concerns, many creditors plan to hold onto their Bitcoin, believing in its long-term value. More info via Reddit, Inc. https://tinyurl.com/3nd6re5j

❗ In 2011, Mt. Gox fell victim to a hack, losing 850,000 BTC valued at over $51 billion today. Following the incident, the exchange filed for bankruptcy and has been working to gather funds for creditor compensation since then.
