On-chain Metrics and Market Analysis of PEPE

  • On-chain metrics revealed that exchanges have witnessed an inflow of $6.8 million worth of PEPE.
  • PEPE could soar by 40% to reach the next resistance level of $0.000026 if it holds itself above the $0.000018 level.

Pepe (PEPE), the popular and third-largest crypto meme coin, has experienced a significant 20% price decline following the anti-crypto stance taken by the Fed Chair. However, the Chair’s statement not only caused a price decline in PEPE but also triggered a massive sell-off across the cryptocurrency market.

Whale Dumps $2.7 Million Worth of PEPE at Loss

Amid this, a whale appears to have dumped 150 billion PEPE worth $2.72 million onto Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, at a loss of $219,000, according to the blockchain-based transaction tracker Lookonchain.

This substantial sell-off occurred as the market started experiencing a price decline.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Lookonchain noted that this whale withdrew the meme coin on 28th November along with 60 billion Shiba Inu (SHIB) meme coins.

Besides these whales, long-term holders also seem to be dumping their holdings onto exchanges, as reported by the on-chain analytics firm Coinglass.

Data from PEPE spot inflow/outflow revealed that exchanges have witnessed a significant inflow of $6.80 million worth of PEPE.

This substantial inflow indicates the movement of assets from wallets to exchanges, which is a bearish sign for token holders as it potentially suggests a price decline and increased selling pressure.

PEPE Technical Analysis and Key Levels

Despite the notable dump by whales and long-term holders, PEPE has managed to stay above the crucial support level of $0.000018.

According to expert technical analysis, the PEPE price has started rebounding after finding support at this level.

Based on recent price action, if PEPE holds above the $0.000018 level, there is a strong possibility it could soar by 40% to reach the next resistance level of $0.000026 in the future.

On a positive note, PEPE’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently stands near the oversold area, indicating that the price is poised to rebound.
