Pepe Unchained (PEPU) Is Showing Bullish Strength After Months of Consistent Downside Volatility

Following its May 5th bottom, the frog-themed meme coin has rallied by more than 62%, trading as high as $0.0020

After several months of consistent downside volatility, Pepe Unchained is finally showing bullish strength again—this time with momentum that appears even stronger than ever before.

Following its May 5th bottom, the frog-themed meme coin has rallied by more than 62%, trading as high as $0.0024 on Tuesday.

PEPU’s resurgence is no surprise, considering the broader shift in crypto sentiment, fueled by Bitcoin’s ascent above the monumental $100k mark.

And as market conditions continue to improve, PEPU appears poised to flip key resistance levels and eventually revisit its all-time high of $0.068—achieved in December 2024.

What Exactly is Pepe Unchained?

Pepe Unchained isn’t just a meme coin—it is a Layer-2 solution developed to address all the challenges that have restrained meme coins, particularly the ones on the Ethereum chain from reaching their full potential.

The project entered the market in June 2024 through an ICO that eventually became one of the year’s biggest success stories, raising upwards of $73 million.

Shortly after its DEX debut in December 2024, Pepe Unchained’s Layer-2 ecosystem went live, including its block explorer, Pump Pad, ETH-PEPU bridge, custom decentralized exchange and even a DEX analytics dashboard.

Pump Pad, which happened to be the most-hyped aspect of the ecosystem, has received considerable attention since its launch earlier this year. For those unaware, the product was launched to do for Ethereum what Pump.fun is doing for Solana—allowing people to create their own meme coins in two-click.

While Pump.fun has grown increasingly popular over the past year, generating hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, Pump Pad is gradually taking over—all thanks to its use of Layer-2 technology, which reduces gas fees and increases transaction speed, making it easier and cheaper for users to create tokens.

Pepe Unchained Price History

PEPU went wild immediately after its debut on Uniswap in December 2024, soaring to an all-time high of $553 million in market valuation—a staggering 8x growth in less than a week.

The parabolic surge registered by the frog-themed meme coin may be attributed to the bullish market outlook at that time, but at the same time, it also highlighted the heavy demand that it witnessed during the presale stage.

However, as the market corrected and interest in meme coins waned in early 2025, PEPU lost momentum. From January to May, the meme coin experienced constant downward volatility, with a heavy retracement from its peak of $0.068—almost back to its earliest presale price.

Nonetheless, the recent uptick — over 62% rally over the past week — signals the return of a bullish momentum for PEPU.

A zoomed-out look at the chart shows that the meme coin has already flipped several key resistance levels, oscillating between $0.0018 and $0.0024. If the support zones at $0.0016 and $0.0019 stay intact, a rally towards $0.0024 could be plausible.

PEPU’s RSI—which is currently within the 60 region—further supports this outlook, suggesting there is still room for more upside before the token is considered overbought.

PEPU Price Prediction

Short-Term

As the broader market outlook continues to improve—possibly due to the de-escalation of the US-China trade war—experts are already anticipating a new ATH for Bitcoin.

If that happens, PEPU may rise parabolically. Assuming the bullish momentum stays strong, further growth can be achieved.

All eyes will also be on upcoming exchange listings for PEPU. At the time of writing, the frog-themed meme coin is still not live on any centralized exchange. However, the community believes strongly that Tier-1 CEX listings—particularly on Binance and Coinbase are within reach, considering that both exchanges have been on a meme coin listing spree in the past few months.

The prospect of securing a listing on either Binance, Coinbase, or both will significantly drive up the demand and value of $PEPU. And since only a 90%
