PEPE Price Prediction 2024, 2025, 2026, 2030 in INR and USD

Gone are the days when dog-themed cryptocurrencies ruled the meme coin market. But now other animals are making their way into it, and leading them is the stylish prince of the pod himself, PEPE, the frog-themed memecoin.

By increasing 180% in 7 days, PEPE has once again caught the attention of the crypto investors. But is it going for another wild ride to the moon, or is it about to crash like before? We will answer this query in the blog below, which covers PEPE price prediction in INR and USD while also discussing the ultimate question keeping PEPE heads awake at night: Can PEPE reach $1?

Let's first quickly learn about PEPE. 

What is PEPE?

As per its official website, PEPE is the most "memeable" meme coin that has emerged to end the reign of dog-theme meme coins. Launched on April 17, 2023, PEPE is an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain and takes its inspiration from the Pepe Frog Cartoon character designed by Matt Furie in 2005 for the comic, "Boy's Club". However, the PEPE token has no direct relation with Matt as it is created by an unknown developer (or group of developers that chose to stay completely anonymous, like the creator of Bitcoin.

PEPE only serves entertainment purposes, and most of its engagement comes from its pure memetic power; therefore, it has no intrinsic value.

The total supply of PEPE coins is slightly above 420 trillion. The team behind PEPE sent 93% of its supply (approximately 391,790,000,000,000) to the project's liquidity pools and then "burned" their liquidity provider (LP) tokens. The remaining supply has been kept in a multi-sig crypto wallet for the project's future development and listing purposes. The PEPE coin team also declared that they had renounced their ownership of PEPE contracts, meaning they no longer have any control over it and can't change its code.

One stand-out feature of the PEPE coin is that it has a no-tax policy, meaning there exists no hefty fee or commission for investors to buy or sell PEPE. This policy makes it quite feasible for traders to trade HODL PEPE coins.

Despite the lack of use cases, PEPE does have a roadmap for its path ahead. The first phase includes listing PEPE on multiple cryptocurrency exchanges to create its strongest MEME community on social media. This stage has a goal of creating 1000 holders for PEPE.

The second stage in the PEPE roadmap includes

• community partnerships,
• the release of digital newsletters,
• the formation of Discord groups, and
• The extended listing of PEPE on different CEX platforms will create over 10,000 PEPE holders.

The last stage in Pepe's roadmap is to launch Pepe merchandise, Pepe academy and Pepe tools, with PEPE as the native currency for trade and other purposes. This stage will end with listing PEPE on tier-1 exchanges and creating its 1,00,000 holders.

(as of 27th August 2024)

Let's look at the PEPE price history to see how far it has come.

PEPE Coin Price History

PEPE's price history began when it entered the crypto market on April 17, 2023. At that time, the PEPE price was around $0.00000006036401729083.

Too many zeroes, right?

The good news is that the PEPE price did not stay too low for long because, when the PEPE launch spread like fire among the meme coin investors through social media, within the next 15 days, its trading volume began to surge. On May 5, 2023, the PEPE price reached its current all-time high of $0.000004354. The reason was the meme coin rally in the crypto market, where various meme coins like- BONK and FLOKI skyrocketed in the blink of an eye. The timing fitted perfectly for PEPE, with its investors making a 6,000% profit within three days of its launch.

Astonishingly, with the continuous price surges, Q2 became the highest-gaining quarter of PEPE, with around 15.37M% gains in it’s value.

After such a dramatic month in April, the PEPE price took a correction path in the following months. As a result, PEPE lost significant gains and was devalued by more than 60% from its all-time high by July.

However, on August 24, 2023, the compromise of PEPE's multi-sig wallet was a significant blow to the project, causing a theft of around 16 trillion PEPE tokens worth $15 million. The incident occurred due to a fault that reduced the required signature count for the PEPE multi-sig CEX wallet from eight to just two signatures. This episode revealed the ongoing team member conflicts and disagreements that caused delays in the security enhancement processes. As a result, the three former team members resurfaced and executed the wallet theft of 16 trillion tokens, constituting 60% of the total holdings of that multi-sig wallet.

As a direct repercussion of this news, the PEPE price plummeted within 24 hours, shedding $100 million from its market capitalization. The once-promising frog theme meme coin was now on the brink of a decline.

Due to such a steep fall, PEPE fell out of the top 100 cryptocurrencies. In the third week of October 2023, the PEPE team burned $5.5M worth of 6.9 trillion PEPE tokens from their holdings, causing a 31% rise in PEPE price. After this move, PEPE was trading at a two-month high as the burning sent bullish sentiments among the PEPE community.

Another factor that contributed to the PEPE surge in the last quarter of 2023 was the broader rally in the crypto market, particularly Bitcoin and other top altcoins, which strengthened the positive sentiments among PEPE investors, resulting in the PEPE price regains of $0.000001481 level by the end of 2023.

At the beginning of January 2024, the PEPE price dropped significantly, and the frog-theme meme crypto experienced a bearish trend, falling to $0.0000009463 by the end of January 2024. However, this trend wholly reversed in February 2024, when PEPE started gaining upward momentum. Within a month, PEPE price surged nearly 200%, citing various bullish factors.

One of these factors is the broader market recovery led by Bitcoin that recently hit $64,000, as we predicted in our Bitcoin price prediction. This move by the most prominent cryptocurrency has led to the Crypto Fear & Greed Index reaching its highest peak since November 2021, reflecting the 'extreme greed' mood of the market. The increasing visibility of the PEPE coin on social media and its rising adoption also contributed to its recent rally, taking its price to an all-time high of $0.00001718, in May, 2024. At the time of writing PEPE is trading at 0.000009115.

According to various sources, six prominent PEPE wallets transacted nearly 2 trillion PEPE coins out of the market. This market participation by PEPE whales highlighted an increased momentum and interest in its meme power. Pepe coin's on-chain metrics and technical indicators also suggested a surge in daily active addresses and profitability among Pepe coin holders. At the time of writing, PEPE is trading at $0.000002997.

Now let's look at the future PEPE price predictions for 2024, 2025, 2026, 2030 and 2040 to understand where this meme coin is heading.

PEPE Price Prediction 2024 (INR & USD)

Given its current market rebirth and surging popularity, the PEPE price prediction for 2024 looks highly bullish. PEPE has a bullish upper hand after the recent 200% price pump as its investors' trust has returned. The upsurge in PEPE price during this rally has made it reach the crucial resistance levels that were unreachable for it a while ago.

This scenario indicates the possibility of an additional growth in PEPE price in 2024. It also saw a surge of 85% in the number of active wallet addresses in the last week of February, indicating a strong adoption rate among new investors.

As per a technical analyst, Ali, PEPE has recently formed a head-and-shoulders pattern, showing a buy signal.

Considering all these factors, traders will likely take a long position in PEPE this year to make the best of the ongoing bullish rally.

Regarding PEPE price prediction for 2024, let's not forget the upcoming Bitcoin halving event that has already started to create positive sentiments in the crypto market. Multiple crypto analysts, traders and experts have shown certainty that Bitcoin Halving 2024 can kick in a new bull run for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. If that proves true, PEPE can hugely benefit from that upward swing and other meme coins like DOGE, FLOKI, SHIB and BONK.

Our DOGE price prediction mentioned how Bitcoin halving in 2021 led to stellar surges in almost all meme coins. Thus, if history repeats, we can witness the same meteoric rise in the PEPE price by the end of this year.

Thus, our PEPE price prediction for 2024 in USD ranges from $0.000001901 to $0.00003579, with the average price being $0.000004678.

For the same time frame, our PEPE price prediction in INR is: INR 0.00016 (minimum), INR 0.0030 (maximum), and INR 0.00039 (average).

PEPE Price Prediction 2025 (INR & USD)

Our PEPE price prediction for 2025 is tilted heavily towards the bullish side, with the high possibility of a bull run being the key reason. Historical evidence suggests the crypto market repeats its four-year cycle after every Bitcoin halving. As per the three cycles the call has completed so far, the year next to Bitcoin halving year has always proved immensely bullish for the majority of meme coins.

Another reason to believe it is the current price swings in the PEPE, relating directly to the anticipation of Bitcoin's halving event. This current correlation between both cryptocurrencies makes it likely that PEPE price can surge in 2025, the year post-halving year.

In PEPE's case, the growth potential appears significantly higher than that of its competitor coins. This observation is mainly because the PEPE coin currently has a fraction of the number of holders compared to its rivals. For example, PEPE has only 11% of SHIBA holders and 3% of the holders that DOGE has. Its market cap is also just 3.8% of the DOGE market cap and 9% of SHIB's.

Considering these numbers, PEPE might be extremely undervalued, leaving enough room for a jaw-dropping rally in the next bull run. However, the PEPE Price prediction for 2025 does not entirely depend on the run. The meme coin has to maintain its popularity and relevance till then. While other meme coin projects are working on building some use cases, PEPE's popularity has been entirely fueled by memetic power. Thus, sustaining its status and value might be tricky without serving any use cases.

Analyzing all these factors, our PEPE price prediction for 2025 is : $0.00006795 (minimum), $0.000112 (maximum), and $0.0000889 (average).

This same PEPE price prediction for 2025 in INR is: INR 0.0056 (minimum), INR 0.0093 (maximum) and INR 0.0074 (average).

PEPE Price Prediction 2026 (INR & USD)

Since PEPE is a meme coin known for its highly volatile nature, predicting PEPE price for 2026 is quite tricky. However, per the market trends, PEPE price could undergo a severe market correction in 2026 after the bull run ends.

Similar meme coins like DOGE, SHIB and FLOKI are known for undergoing steep market corrections post-bull runs, and PEPE can follow their lead in 2026. However, it can also escape this correction if it stays relevant through new updates or launches.

Thus, our PEPE price prediction for 2026 in USD is - $0.0000987 (maximum), $0.0000223 (minimum), and $0.0000789 (average).

This PEPE price prediction for 2026 in INR becomes INR 0.0082 (maximum), INR 0.0018 (minimum), and INR 0.0065 (average).

PEPE Price Prediction 2030 (INR & USD)

PEPE will fade away like thousands of meme coins or become one of the top by 2030, per its current market performance and volatility. The meme coin market in crypto is highly competitive due to new meme coins coming into play almost daily. However, only a handful of them survive in the long run. So far, PEPE has been doing well, crossing the market cap of $1 billion in less than a year. Thus, it has a reasonable possibility of flourishing further by 2030.

Considering all these possibilities, our PEPE price prediction for 2030 in USD is: $0.00843 (maximum), $0.0006574 (minimum), and $0.000998 (average).

This PEPE price prediction for 2030 in INR is- INR 0.70 (maximum), INR 0.055 (minimum) and INR 0.083 (average).

Here's a cumulative table of PEPE price predictions for 2024, 2025, 2026 and 2030 in USD:

PEPE price prediction for 2024, 2025, 2026, and 2030 in INR is as follows:

Can PEPE Reach $1?

Looking at the current landscape of the crypto market, characterized by ongoing regulatory uncertainties, macroeconomic influences, and other trends, the chances of PEPE reaching $1 anytime soon appear highly improbable.

While PEPE has emerged as a popular alternative to existing dog-themed cryptocurrencies in less than a year, breaking the $1 barrier is a big challenge, even for the most established memecoins. For example, the biggest meme coin, DOGE, has an all-time high of $0.73 despite its widespread popularity and market presence. Thus, for PEPE to achieve this milestone, it must overcome dozens of resistance levels and sustain the bullish momentum without market corrections.

Achieving such sustained growth would require a dramatic increase in adoption and highly favourable market conditions, which are rare in the volatile world of meme coins. Moreover, it has a maximum supply of 420.69 trillion PEPE. For 1 PEPE to hit $1, the market cap of PEPE needs to reach $420.69 trillion, which is exponentially higher than the market cap of the entire crypto market. Thus, it is nearly impossible for PEPE to hit $1.

Can PEPE Reach 1 Rupee?

As of the time of this blog, PEPE is trading at $0.000002954, equivalent to approximately INR 0.00024. To put things into perspective, reaching the 1 rupee mark would need a staggering surge of nearly 416,566%. However, such a monumental increase in PEPE's price seems highly unlikely in the foreseeable future since it does not have any use case as of now.

Moreover, given the current trading dynamics and market conditions, achieving such a substantial uptick would require a seismic shift in sentiment and an unprecedented influx of investment. While PEPE has shown resilience within the memecoin space, the astronomical leap needed to reach the 1 rupee milestone presents a formidable challenge.

How Much will the Pepe Coin be Worth in 2025?

As per our PEPE price prediction for 2025, PEPE can trade between $0.00006795 and $0.000112. We came to this price range, citing factors like Bitcoin halving, historical market cycles, PEPE's performance and other macroeconomic factors. The same PEPE price prediction in INR is- INR 0.0093 in the bullish case and INR 0.0056 in the bearish case.

Is PEPE a Good Investment?

Whether PEPE is a good investment depends on your risk tolerance and investment goals. As a memecoin, PEPE lacks intrinsic value and relies heavily on speculative sentiment and market trends. While it has shown immense price growth and community engagement since its launch, its volatile nature and fluctuations make it a high-risk investment. Additionally, factors such as regulatory uncertainty and competition within the meme coin space add to the inherent risks associated with PEPE. Thus, investors should conduct thorough research, consider their risk appetite, and diversify their portfolio before considering PEPE or other memecoin.
