Despite a brief period of positive momentum for PEPE, the price has since reversed. The bullish trend for PEPE was short-lived. This price drop has also impacted Bitcoin and Ethereum, which have fallen by 9.5% and 13% respectively in the last few days.
Kyle Doane, a trader at digital asset management firm Arca, mentioned in an interview that it is common for traders to leverage some of their BTC and ETH assets to invest in meme coins. He noted that this strategy is often employed with the intention of driving down the prices of BTC and ETH.
Bloomberg also referenced the previous meme coin surge, which was followed by a prolonged decline in Bitcoin prices. Bitcoin, which reached a monthly peak of $30,555, has since dropped to $27,460. According to data from CoinMarketCap, BTC has increased by 1.63% in the last 24 hours. With PEPE trading at $0.000001718, it remains uncertain whether Pepe Coin will experience another significant rise.
