About Pepe (PEPE)

PEPE is a decentralized cryptocurrency, started in 2023 by an anonymous team that was inspired by the popular internet meme, Pepe the Frog. Compatible with the Ethereum network, PEPE, pronounced “Peh-peh,” is an ERC-20 token. You can use PEPE to trade and stake digital currencies, as well as participate in the Ethereum network. 

Ethereum’s ecosystem is powered by technology called smart contracts. A smart contract is a digital agreement written in computer code that lives on Ethereum's blockchain. It automatically does something when certain conditions are met. For example, if you send me 1 PEPE, the smart contract instantly sends you a digital artwork that I created. No human needs to be there to make it work, the smart contract follows the rules it was programmed with.

The Ethereum blockchain network consists of a huge, secure, ever-growing ledger of smart contract transactions, which everyone can see and is immutable. Once a traditional smart contract is created, it can't be altered. These types of smart contracts will always follow the original rules that they were programmed with. Upgradable smart contracts allow for changes to be made, adapting to new requirements, or fixing bugs.

Today, decentralized finance (DeFi) dapps are the most popular use for PEPE. Named after the iconic internet meme, PEPE crypto holders are typically community-led, memecoin traders.

PEPE market moves

Powered by MetaMask Market Insights


24h change: -4.01%. From $0.00000291 to $0.00000279.

  • On-chain data showed large holders increased PEPE supply from 181 trillion to 183.6 trillion tokens around June 14, worth about $7.5 million. This occurred as the token rebounded 17 percent from a June 6 low near $0.00000252. Some whales trimmed positions as prices rose, and trading volume declined after June 12. The activity underscores how major holders engage with meme coins during volatility.
  • Canary Capital filed an S-1 with the SEC in April 2026 for a spot PEPE ETF, the first attempt to create a regulated product for a pure meme coin without utility. The filing notes high concentration with top wallets holding 41 percent of supply as of January 2026. It may hold up to 5 percent in Ethereum for fees. The move tests whether meme coins can gain institutional acceptance through traditional finance vehicles.
  • A US-Iran peace agreement in mid-June 2026 reduced global risk and lifted PEPE along with the broader crypto market. The token rebounded from recent lows with whale buying support. This occurred within a meme coin sector valued around $35 billion. Geopolitical easing provided a tailwind for risk assets including meme tokens like PEPE.

24h change: -0.96%. From $0.00000293 to $0.0000029.

  • On-chain data from mid-June showed whale holdings of PEPE rising from 181 trillion to 183.6 trillion tokens worth about $7.5 million. This buying occurred as the price rebounded 17 percent from its June 6 low around $0.00000252. Some whales later trimmed positions as prices rose and volume showed divergence. Large holder activity remains a key factor for price movements in community-driven tokens like PEPE.
  • Canary Capital filed an S-1 with the SEC in April 2026 for the first spot PEPE ETF tied to a pure memecoin. The proposal would hold PEPE directly with a small amount of ETH for fees. As of early June discussions continued around whether this could open doors for institutional meme coin products. Market reaction has been limited to date highlighting challenges for non-utility assets in traditional wrappers.
  • Analysts observe PEPE trading below key trendlines during an ongoing correction with no clear impulsive advance. Volume has shown bearish divergence after the mid-June rebound and $0.000003 is noted as important resistance. The token maintains gains over the past 30 days amid broader meme coin interest. Views differ on near-term breakout potential versus further tests of support levels.

24h change: -2.14%. From $0.00000299 to $0.00000293.

  • News of a US-Iran peace deal reduced global risk and supported gains in speculative assets including PEPE. The token surged as lower tension appeared to encourage risk-on trades across crypto markets. Whales accumulated approximately $7.5 million in PEPE before trimming some positions during the move higher. This illustrates how macro geopolitical events can rapidly influence meme token pricing and trading volume.
  • PEPE is testing a notable technical resistance level around $0.000003 after recent gains. Chart analysis shows the token in an ascending channel while facing mixed volume signals and bearish divergence on some indicators. Failure to break higher could see support tested near $0.00000268 to $0.0000028. Traders are watching this level closely for signs of continuation or reversal.
  • Recent coverage features PEPE among meme coins to watch in the third week of June 2026. Reports compare its performance against other leading tokens such as DOGE and SHIB amid mixed sector momentum. On-chain observations note ongoing whale interest alongside concentrated holdings. This coverage reflects sustained analyst and community attention on established meme tokens within the broader market.

24h change: -1.79%. From $0.0000036 to $0.00000354.

  • Asset manager Canary Capital filed an S-1 registration statement with the SEC on April 8 2026 for a spot ETF designed to hold actual PEPE tokens. The proposal would give traditional investors regulated exposure to the meme coin through a custodian without needing to hold the token directly. It marks an early attempt to integrate a major meme coin into mainstream financial products and has sparked conversation about the sector's evolution. PEPE price showed limited immediate reaction and has since consolidated.
  • Recent data shows PEPE trading around $0.0000035 after volatility earlier in the year including gains in January. Market capitalization stands near $1.5 billion while 24-hour trading volume has ranged from $150 million to over $200 million. Price action reflects broader meme coin sector dynamics with mixed analyst forecasts for the remainder of 2026. On-chain observations have periodically noted whale accumulation during periods of lower prices.
  • Updates from late May 2026 reference both the institutional step of the PEPE ETF filing and cautions from figures such as Adam Back that some meme coins could go to zero. PEPE continues to maintain a large community focused on its cultural status as a leading meme token. Discussions on X and elsewhere blend optimism about long-term relevance with acknowledgment of the asset's speculative nature. On-chain metrics and holder distribution remain points of interest for participants.
