<p>At the end of August, the price of meme coin <a href="https://crypto.news/pepe-coin-loses-20-one-week-amid-rug-pull-concerns/">plummeted</a> by 20%. The reason for the fall was the actions of former team members who withdrew 16 trillion tokens worth about $15m from a multi-signature wallet and sold them on centralized exchanges.</p>
