The PEPE

Despite its recent price decline, the hype surrounding PEPE seems far from over, as crypto whales are still accumulating. 
Its daily trading volume has surpassed that of well-known memecoins such as Dogecoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB) for more than a week.

One of the best performers in the cryptocurrency market in the past several weeks &#8211; Pepe Coin (PEPE) &#8211; recently lost some steam, with its price being 26% down within the last week. Its market capitalization also tumbled significantly: from over $1.6 billion at the beginning of May to less than $700 million as of the moment of writing (according to CoinMarketCap).
However, some crypto whales seem unfazed by the decline and have recently purchased a substantial amount of the asset. One user who previously profited $2.2 million from the memecoin <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://twitter.com/lookonchain/status/1657339024812699648" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-wpel-link="external">spent</a> $2.1 million worth of ETH to buy 1.33T PEPE again. Another investor <a href="https://twitter.com/lookonchain/status/1657990290509283329" data-wpel-link="external" target="_blank">swapped</a><a href="https://twitter.com/lookonchain/status/1657990290509283329" data-wpel-link="external" target="_blank"> </a>397,182 APE for over 748M PEPE.
Besides the engagement from crypto whales, PEPE has been the memecoin with the highest daily trading volume for over a week. Twitter user borovick.eth outlined that PEPE&#8217;s 24h volume has surpassed $350 million, while DOGE is second with $214 million.

The asset, launched in mid-April, quickly garnered massive attention. The initial hype was so high that its price was charting ATHs almost daily. Savvy investors used the opportunity to become millionaires overnight, with one <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://cryptopotato.com/how-someone-turned-27-into-1-million-in-days-with-pepe-but-theres-a-catch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">turning</a> his $27 investment into $1 million in a matter of days.
The PEPE craze continued with full power in May, and many crypto exchanges listed the token. OKX, BitMEX, and even the world&#8217;s largest &#8211; <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://cryptopotato.com/pepes-market-cap-soars-above-1-billion-following-another-60-daily-surge/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">Binance</a> &#8211; are some examples. 
The asset became so popular that even well-known individuals joined its ecosystem. Such was the case with the American rapper DeAndre Cortez Way (better known as Soulja Boy), who <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://twitter.com/souljaboy/status/1653971555456815104" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-wpel-link="external">said</a> he &#8220;done got rich off PEPE.&#8221;
Some traders <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://cryptopotato.com/nft-traders-sell-bayc-below-floor-price-to-buy-pepe/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">sold</a> NFTs part of the Bored Ape Yacht Collection (BAYC) below floor price to invest in the memecoin. 
After peaking on May 5, PEPE&#8217;s price and market capitalization started dropping, casting doubts that the hype was over and that speculative investors might have turned away from it.
Nonetheless, the asset&#8217;s trading volume, the ongoing activity from whales, and the USD <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://cryptopotato.com/pepe-shoots-up-20-daily-bitcoin-flat-at-27k-weekend-watch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">spike</a> during the weekend could indicate that this is not the case. After all, PEPE joined the top 45 largest crypto assets after less than a month (currently standing in 63rd place), surpassing at one point well-known tokens such as SAND, AXS, XTZ, MANA, STX, and more.
