Trader Turns $215 Into $1.06M With Pepe (PEPE) Memecoin Surge

PEPE Memecoin: Early Investors Turn Small Stakes into Millions, but Future Big Gains May Require Larger Bets

  • PEPE reached an all-time high of $0.00002803 in December 2024.
  • An investor turned a $215 investment in PEPE into over $1 million after selling part of their holdings.
  • Another trader made a profit of $1.77 million after buying $2,100 of PEPE tokens and selling a portion at higher prices.
  • PEPE and Shiba Inu (SHIB) both saw significant declines after hitting their peaks.
  • Future large profits in PEPE may require higher initial investments, as massive rallies appear less likely.

PEPE, a memecoin that launched in April 2023, experienced a rapid price surge, attracting investor interest globally. By December 2024, the token’s value peaked at $0.00002803, creating significant gains for early buyers.

A trader identified as dimethyltryptamine.eth purchased 5.9 trillion PEPE coins for 0.125 Ethereum (ETH), worth about $215 at the time, according to a CoinMarketCap community member. The average price per coin was approximately $0.00000000003644. This individual later sold 2 trillion tokens for $1.06 million. Another addressed investor acquired 5.4 trillion coins for 1 ETH (around $2,100) and eventually sold 3.42 trillion coins for 929 ETH, making $1.77 million in profit.

The article notes that memecoins like PEPE and Shiba Inu (SHIB) do not have real-world uses and are highly volatile. It states, “A key factor for making it big with a memecoin is to enter early and sell when prices are high.” After initial rallies, both tokens saw sharp price corrections. SHIB dropped by over 86% from its highest point, while PEPE declined about 67% from its peak.

While some hope PEPE could reclaim previous highs, experts cited in the source believe another dramatic increase may be less likely. The information suggests that future million-dollar profits in PEPE would require greater investment amounts than earlier success stories.
