Peanut the Squirrel Price · PNUT

About Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT)

PNUT is named after a pet squirrel seized by New York wildlife officials in November 2024, and the news cycle around it put the token on every Solana terminal within a day. It kept a real market after the story faded.

Trading Peanut the Squirrel on Photon

Paste the PNUT mint into Photon's search and the terminal opens the token with a chart, the pool it routes through and a buy panel already primed with your preset. Photon takes a flat 1% of the transaction on the buy and again on the sell, the same rate whether you trade once or a thousand times. Everything else you pay goes to the network: the Solana base fee, the priority fee that decides your place in the block, and an optional Jito tip. Limit and DCA orders work on PNUT the same as on anything else Photon lists, so you do not have to sit at the screen to get an entry.

Peanut the Squirrel is old enough to sit in a deep, settled pool, which is a different trade from the launches scrolling through Memescope. Slippage here is measured in basis points rather than percent, and the token has survived long enough that its holder base is not one wallet in a trench coat. Verify the mint address below before you buy, because every liquid memecoin on Solana has impostor tokens trading under the same ticker.

How is buying PNUT on Photon different from a centralized exchange?

Buying PNUT on a centralized exchange means the exchange holds the token and shows you a balance, and you get it out by passing a withdrawal check. Buying it on Photon means the swap happens on a Solana DEX pool and the token lands in a wallet whose private key only you hold, seconds later and with no account to approve it. The trade-off runs both ways. A centralized order book gives you a single price and a fee often measured in basis points, while Photon charges a flat 1% and your real cost also includes slippage against pool depth plus whatever priority fee you set to get included. In exchange you are not asking anyone for permission, you can trade PNUT at any hour, and nothing sits between you and the token except the network itself.

What should you check before buying PNUT?

The number that decides your fill is pool liquidity, not the headline price. PNUT quotes here come from the pool shown in the specs table below, and a buy large relative to that pool moves the price against you before it fills, which is slippage rather than a fee. Photon's 1% is charged on both the buy and the sell, so a round trip costs 2% before the market has moved at all. On top of that you pay the Solana base fee and whatever priority fee or Jito tip you set, which is what actually decides whether your transaction lands in a busy block. Set slippage tolerance deliberately: too tight and the trade fails and you pay the network fee anyway, too loose and a sandwich bot has room to work. Peanut the Squirrel is a memecoin, so position size deserves more thought than entry price. It has no cash flow and no floor under it, and its liquidity can thin out fast when attention moves elsewhere.

How to Buy Peanut the Squirrel on Photon in 4 Steps

1. 1Open Photon and save your key. Go to photon-sol.tinyastro.io, connect or let Photon generate a wallet, and write down the private key it shows you once. See getting started.
2. 2Fund it with SOL. Send SOL to the wallet address. It is both what you buy PNUT with and what pays network and priority fees, so leave a little spare.
3. 3Search the PNUT mint. Paste 2qEHjD…1tpump rather than the ticker. Tickers are not unique on Solana; mint addresses are.
4. 4Set slippage, then buy. Pick a preset (S1/S2/S3), check the slippage tolerance and priority fee against how deep the pool is, and send it. Photon takes 1% on the way in and 1% on the way out.
