PEPE Coin Price Rally: Trader Gains $5M in 8 Days as Memecoin Popularity Grows

Pepe (PEPE) is drawing attention as one of the leading meme coins. According to Spot On Chain, a whale recently deposited 52.62 billion PEPE (valued at $10.03 million) into Binance, marking a $5.04 million profit (+97%) in just eight days. Following Coinbase’s listing announcement, PEPE’s price surged by about 61% within 24 hours. Interestingly, if the whale had held a bit longer, their profit could have reached $6.68 million. 

Whale Activity Sparks PEPE Price Rally

Large transactions involving PEPE have skyrocketed, with data from IntoTheBlock showing a jump from 100 to over 1,020 in a week. Whale inflows rose 104% over the past week and 195% over the past month, indicating strong investor confidence. On-chain analyst @ai_9684xtpa noted a whale with a 2.02 trillion PEPE position sent 500 billion tokens ($11.17 million) to Coinbase, positioning for a potential $10.52 million profit. The remaining holdings boast a floating profit of $35.26 million with a return rate of 1,811%.

Analysts and Technical Indicators Signal Potential

Crypto analyst Max suggests PEPE may soon enter a leg-up phase, observing patterns in the PEPE/BTC pair similar to those in early 2024. Technical indicators also hint at possible movement: PEPE’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is over 70, signaling an overbought condition that could either trigger a continued rally due to FOMO or prompt a pullback. While TradingView data shows PEPE trading above both its 10-day EMA of $0.0000112 and its 30-day EMA of $0.0000101, revealing a 60% weekly gain, ranging from $0.00000819 to $0.000013.
