Whales Double Down on PEPE: $4.36M Buy Signals Confidence as Price Jumps to $0.000013

A major cryptocurrency whale has once again loaded up on PEPE, purchasing 500 billion tokens worth $4.36 million — pushing their total holdings to 2 trillion PEPE, now valued at approximately $17.42 million, according to on-chain data from Lookonchain.

PEPE Price Soars 43% in 24 Hours

At the time of writing, PEPE is trading at $0.000013, reflecting an 43% surge over the past 24 hours. The token hit a 24-hour high of $0.000014 with a trading volume of $2.47 billion, and its market cap now sits at $5.59 billion.

This rally follows last week’s massive whale withdrawal of 1.5 trillion PEPE (then worth $13.3 million) from Binance on April 30, 2025 — a clear signal of growing confidence in the meme coin’s potential. Whale accumulation at this scale is often interpreted as bullish conviction, spurring optimism across the market.

Investor Enthusiasm Fuels Meme Coin Momentum

PEPE’s recent breakout from consolidation is gaining momentum, bolstered by both retail and institutional activity. The token has seen gains of 101.6% over the last month and has now added more than 43% just today. This explosive move reflects increased investor appetite as Bitcoin edges closer to the $100,000 mark and altcoins follow suit.

Recent developments such as President Trump’s upcoming private dinner for top TRUMP token holders have also sparked renewed interest in meme coins across the board. PEPE is currently benefiting from this rising tide.

Whale Activity and Wallet Growth Confirm Bullish Outlook

Data from Santiment shows a surge in wallets holding between 10 million and 100 million PEPE tokens — a range typically associated with smart money. As more whales and large players continue to buy in, liquidity and momentum are building, creating conditions for a possible move toward the much-anticipated $0.001 mark.
