Pepe the Frog himself originates in 2005 as a character in Matt Furie’s comic series, ‘Boy’s Club,’ and users in places like MySpace, Gaia Online, 4chan, and <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/pepethefrog/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Reddit</a> have widely shared it.<h2 id="header-1">Pepe price analysis</h2>At press time, the price of PEPE might look unimpressive at $0.0000003456 but zoomed out on the larger scale demonstrates a significant upward movement for the newly launched digital asset, which is up 31.45% in the last 24 hours, as per the latest <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/pepe/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">data</a> retrieved by <a href="https://finbold.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Finbold</a> from the crypto monitoring and analysis platform <a href="https://finbold.com/guide/best-crypto-data-websites/#CoinMarketCap" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinMarketCap</a> on April 20.<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/18871162e80f4e819efbb59810b47a85.png" />PEPE 24-hour price chart.
