On-chain data from shows the token spiked briefly at launch before collapsing as roughly $50,000 was pulled from liquidity pools.
The event is now circulating as the latest Pump.fun rug pull case study, fueling debate over the dangers of hype-driven meme coins that lean on personality rather than fundamentals.
Launched in late September, $Avishkar was pitched as a social-impact coin blending activism with crypto. Within hours of launch, however, , and the token’s price nuked.

Without new inflows, analysts say recovery is unlikely, leaving early buyers stuck in yet another Solana rug pull cycle.
For many retail traders, $Avishkar episode is déjà vu. Screenshots of the collapse are circulating across crypto Reddit boards () and Instagram reels (,), with traders calling it “a classic rug.” Supporters who once saw Raut as a symbol of change now accuse him of selling out.
The backlash highlights a broader lesson that of meme coins tied to individuals, especially minors or viral figures, that it carries outsized risks because they can move liquidity without oversight.
