On May 5, data from GMGN shows the on-chain meme coin ASTEROID has surged nearly 43% in the past 24 hours, with a market cap hitting $180 million and 24-hour trading volume reaching $23.4 million. Per reports, the meme coin ASTEROID’s origin story traces back to 15-year-old Liv Perrotto. Before her passing, her greatest wish was to meet Elon Musk, and she helped design a Shiba Inu-shaped plush toy named “Asteroid.” Following her death, her mother publicly reached out to Musk, and the story gained traction on Glenn Beck’s show (hosted by the renowned media personality).
