A crypto trader that made and then lost more than $1 million on $BALD, a meme coin that exploded to a market cap of $100 million over the weekend before crashing in price due to an apparent rug pull scam is touting a new low cap meme coin on Base called Toshi ($TOSHI).
Base is Coinbase’s Ethereum layer-2 scaling blockchain that is still in its fairly early testing stages, with limited access for the general public.
Toshi is a meme coin that is attempting to become the Dogecoin of the Base network, although it is actually themed on a cat.
As per a tweet from the Toshi team, the token is currently in the process of migrating across to SushiSwap, so trade is paused for now.
Prior to the migration, $TOSHI had close to 3,500 holders and had hit an all-time high price of just under $0.0002, nearly 3,000x up versus its DEX launch price of $0.000000007 on Sunday.
