PEPE has experienced a dramatic surge in trading volume, skyrocketing by an impressive 322%. Over the last 24 hours, its trading volume has hit $2.76 billion, alongside a substantial price increase that pushed PEPE to a new all-time high.

PEPE’s market capitalization has also seen a significant boost, now reaching $4.46 billion. This increase has made PEPE the 23rd largest cryptocurrency by market value, overtaking Uniswap. The heightened trading activity reflects a surge in investor interest and increased market participation surrounding this meme-based digital currency.

Since mid-April, PEPE has been on a steady upward path, with the rally gaining momentum after PEPE surpassed the 50-day moving average at $0.000073. On May 13, PEPE’s price surged further, achieving new all-time highs. Currently, PEPE has risen by 20.50% in the past 24 hours, trading at $0.0000105 and peaking earlier at $0.000011.

Significant interest from large-scale investors, or “whales,” has also been observed. Lookonchain noted that a trader recently invested 1.86 million USDC to buy 195 billion PEPE, realizing an unrealized profit of $236,000. Another whale acquired 406.74 million PEPE from Binance for $4.26 million, having previously made a profit of $3.72 million on their PEPE investments.
