As $PENGU cements itself as a standout in the meme coin category, Wintermute’s active participation is likely contributing to the token’s liquidity and price stability.

As trading volume and community interest continue to rise, the token’s trajectory will be closely watched by both retail and institutional investors alike.
Wintermute’s role in market-making ensures $PENGU remains liquid and accessible, further solidifying its position as one of the most talked-about meme coins of this cycle.
