<p>Since its launch, Pepe coin has shot up by over 7,000%, driven by excitement, retail interest, and speculative trading.

It experienced steady consolidation in October before kicking off a dramatic rally in November, surpassing its previous high.

  The Record-Breaking Surge from $591 Million to $11 Billion
 </figcaption>
</figure> 
<p>&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Starting 2024 with a market cap of $591 million, it briefly surpassed $11 billion by December 5—an 18x increase in under a year. Pepe coin has continued to climb, rising 14.8% in the past 24 hours and 21% over the past week. With a 1,538% increase, it has outpaced Dogecoin’s 370% growth. Now trading at $0.000025, its market cap stands at $10.6 billion, making it the third-largest meme coin, following DOGE and SHIB. At one point, Pepe coin even briefly <a href="https://www.binance.com/en/square/post/17285754500562" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">surpassed Uniswap’s UNI token</a> in market cap. Meanwhile, <a href="https://app.intotheblock.com/coin/PEPE" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">IntoTheBlock</a> data shows that 98% of PEPE holders are in profit, with 25% holding for over a year and 53% for up to a year.</p> 
<h2 id="strong-what-s-fueling-pepe-s-massive-surge-strong"><strong>What’s Fueling PEPE’s Massive Surge?</strong></h2> 
<p>PEPE’s remarkable growth is fueled partly by Ethereum’s recent climb above $4,000, which has injected fresh energy into the market. This upward momentum, combined with the <a href="https://cryptobriefing.com/altcoin-search-trends-2021-highs/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Altcoin Season Index</a> reaching 89— highlights the strong outperformance of altcoins over Bitcoin— significantly boosting trader confidence.</p> 
<p>Adding to this optimism is its increasing accessibility on major U.S. exchanges. Last week, Binance.US began offering PEPE trading, joining platforms like <a href="https://cryptobriefing.com/pepe-token-coinbase-listing-2/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Coinbase</a> and Robinhood, which are typically <a href="https://cryptobriefing.com/coinbase-meme-coin-listings-trump/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">cautious about listing meme coins</a>. These listings have expanded access for retail investors, driving its open interest to $356.79 million, a 30% jump in the past 24 hours, according to <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/currencies/PEPE" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Coinglass</a>.</p> 
<h2 id="strong-a-rising-tide-lifts-all-memes-strong"><strong>A Rising Tide Lifts All Memes </strong></h2> 
<p>PEPE is not the only meme coin basking in the spotlight. <a href="https://thebitjournal.com/will-dogecoin-smash-1-by-year-end-after-a-450-surge/">DOGE</a> surged 450% earlier, and with a market cap of over $65 billion, experts predict it could reach $1 by year-end. According to <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/categories/meme-token" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">CoinGecko,</a> other dog-themed tokens also saw significant gains over the weekend. Baby Doge Coin (BABYDOGE) surged 33% and DOG•GO•TO•THE•MOON (DOG) recorded a 16% jump.</p> 
<p>Meanwhile, even smaller meme coins like Dogwifhat (WIF), Popcat (POPCAT), Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT), and Turbo (TURBO) experienced notable gains. This rally reflects the broader speculative enthusiasm sweeping through the altcoin market.</p>
