PEPE Slips as Whale Offloads $4.8M Stake, Still Outperforms Memecoin Sector

Whale-sized selloff rattles PEPE holders as major investor cashes out millions.

Market impact

The token takes a hit but maintains surprising resilience compared to sector peers—trading volume spikes 40% amid the turbulence.

Behind the numbers

That $4.8M exit represents just a fraction of PEPE's liquidity pool, suggesting the dump might've been more dramatic in sentiment than actual market impact.

Outperforming the pack

While memecoins collectively bled 5% last week, PEPE's dip looks almost graceful by comparison—proving once again that in crypto, even 'weakness' is relative.

Final thought

Another day, another whale playing volatility roulette—because nothing says 'sound investment strategy' like timing the market with meme assets.
