Uniswap Buys PONS Stake, Token Jumps 40% to New All-Time High

It touched as high as $0.75 earlier in the day, a new price record, before easing back, so the current price sits close to 4% below that peak.

PONS is up more than 1,769% in the last 14 days and over 2,713% for the month, a run that traces back to a low of $0.0033 in mid-July, and it’s also up close to 25% on its pairing with Bitcoin.
