As the story notes, Pepe has experienced some notable peaks in the past.<\/p>\n<p>Its entire market value was $1.6 billion in 2023. It reached an even greater $11 billion in December 2024. These <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmerce.io\/en\/learn\/what-are-whales-bulls-bears\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">whales<\/a> may be feeling more confident as a result of their previous performance.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/IDwsAqIz\/\" alt=\"\" width=\"2315\" height=\"1087\" \/><br \/>\nMore People Are Holding Pepe<\/p>\n<p>The number of people holding the meme coin has also gone up recently. Reports indicate that 542 new Pepe holders appeared in March 2025.<\/p>\n<p>While the number of people holding Pepe for a long time has decreased, the fact that new investors are coming in, combined with the whales&#8217; buying activity, suggests there might be some renewed interest in the coin.<\/p>\n<p>Some believe that this whale buying frenzy may be signaling that the <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/pepe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">price<\/a> of Pepe may rise once more. They recall the way the price skyrocketed earlier, driven by internet hype. The only question is if this is just a temporary rise in price, or if Pepe may again experience a big spike like last time.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s worth remembering that cryptocurrencies, particularly meme coins such as Pepe, can be extremely volatile. What the big investors do may at times provide a clue as to where the market is heading, but it isn&#8217;t a promise.<\/p>\n<p>People need to exercise caution and carry out their own research before doing anything about buying or selling.<\/p>\n<p><em>Featured image from Gemini Imagen, chart from TradingView<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deep pockets, big appetite.
