Meme Coin Mania: Whale Rakes in $3.39M as PEPE Soars 700%, SHIB Rallies 380%

The meme coin market is experiencing a resurgence, with one smart trader making a whopping $3.39 million profit after selling a portion of their PEPE holdings. According to Spot On Chain, a leading crypto analytics platform, this whale deposited a massive 500 billion PEPE tokens, worth $4.26 million, to Binance within the last ten days. Notably, the trader still holds a significant amount of PEPE, currently valued at over $1 million.

This windfall wasn’t limited to PEPE. The same trader reportedly pocketed an additional $900,000 from FLOKI and SHIB, two meme coins associated with the popular Shiba Inu ecosystem. This buying and selling spree comes amidst a remarkable surge for PEPE, a frog-themed token launched on the Ethereum blockchain in April 2023.

After a lackluster debut and a subsequent bear run lasting nearly nine months, PEPE finally broke free from its long-term resistance on February 26th. This breakout ignited a three-week rally, propelling the meme coin over 700% and exceeding its previous all-time high by a staggering 140%.

Riding this wave of enthusiasm, PEPE has rocketed into the top 30 global cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, according to CoinMarketCap. The market cap itself has ballooned by 14.7%, reaching a noteworthy $4.42 billion. At the time of writing, PEPE is trading at $0.00001045, reflecting a 15% surge in the last 24 hours alone.

This bullish trend isn’t exclusive to PEPE. Data from TradingView suggests that fellow meme coins FLOKI and SHIB have mirrored PEPE’s trajectory, with gains exceeding 750% and 380% respectively over the past three weeks.

While the long-term sustainability of this meme coin rally remains uncertain, one thing is clear: investors with an appetite for risk are diving headfirst into this volatile sector, with some reaping significant rewards.
