- PEPE surged 14% as whales accumulated and exchange supplies shrank.
- Top 100 holders increased their position by 2.3% over the past month.
- Strong support held near $0.000011013, while resistance is forming at $0.000012482.
PEPE just exploded 14% in 24 hours, and it wasn’t just random meme magic this time. Big wallets have been quietly stacking, and a broader crypto market rebound helped light the fuse. The token jumped from $0.000011141 to $0.000012812, feeding fresh momentum into an already buzzing memecoin scene.
As Bitcoin shot past $118K and the overall crypto space caught fire, memecoins followed—with the CoinDesk Memecoin Index (CDMEME) jumping 11.3%. PEPE led the charge, showing once again how quickly things can heat up when whales get involved.
Whale Accumulation Signals Possible Run-Up
Behind PEPE’s sudden surge is a pattern that meme traders know all too well: big players quietly loading up. According to Nansen, the top 100 PEPE addresses added more than 1% to their holdings in just the past day—now totaling 304.1 trillion PEPE.

Over the past month, those same top wallets have increased their stash by 2.3%. Meanwhile, exchange reserves dropped 2.17% to 252.2 trillion PEPE, hinting that tokens are being pulled into cold storage or private wallets—a classic signal of growing confidence and tightening supply.
Technical Setup Looks Bullish
PEPE traded in an 18% range during the latest rally, swinging between $0.000009823 and a high of $0.000013068. Key resistance has formed at $0.000012482, with heavy selling hitting each time price flirts with that level. But dips haven’t lasted long.
Strong support has settled around $0.000011013, where traders seem to be buying up any drop. That combination—firm support, repeated tests of resistance, and steady whale inflows—paints a pretty bullish picture, at least for now.
What’s Next for PEPE?
If PEPE breaks above $0.000012482 with volume, it could be the start of another leg higher. For now, the token’s staying power is being driven by strong community support, thickening whale positions, and a macro tailwind from Bitcoin’s latest rally.
But as always with memecoins, it’s a game of timing. Traders will be watching closely to see whether this breakout sticks—or fizzles into yet another fakeout.
