The listing provided a much-needed boost to the wider memecoin ecosystem, with GOAT experiencing a 9% move to the upside, while PNUT rose by 6% during a 10-minute period following the listing.

Market depth for MOODENG on OKX, which offers the most liquid trading pair, is still relatively thin with just $81,000 in resting orders 2% to the upside.
