- PEPE experiences volatility after hitting ATH, signaling market turbulence.
- Notable Whale profits $4.82M from a $494K investment in less than six months
The popular frog-themed memecoin, PEPE, has experienced a tumultuous period, with its price dropping 3.50% in the past 24 hours and trading volume declining by 5.20%. This volatility follows an impressive surge to an all-time high (ATH) of $0.00001718 just eight days ago. Over the past week, PEPE has seen a 10.21% decrease, reflecting the broader market’s bearish sentiment.
Despite the recent downturn, PEPE demonstrated strong performance in mid-May, consistently hitting new ATHs and securing its place as the third-largest memecoin by market cap. Over a month, the token surged by 65%, underscoring its potential and attracting significant attention from investors and traders alike.
One notable event in the PEPE market is the recent activity of a prominent whale. This investor deposited 365.96 billion PEPE, valued at $5.3 million, into Binance. Remarkably, this whale had withdrawn the same amount of PEPE from MEXC in mid-December 2023, when it was worth $494,000. This transaction highlights an extraordinary profit of $4.82 million and an astonishing ROI of 976% in less than six months.
Meanwhile, Analysts are observing fluctuating weighted sentiment around PEPE on social media platforms, indicating a lack of consistent narrative. The community’s mood has been swinging between bullish and bearish within days, suggesting ongoing volatility in PEPE’s market behavior.
