PEPE is a community-driven Ethereum-based memecoin inspired by "Pepe the Frog," the internet meme created by artist Matt Furie. Launched in April 2023, it markets itself with a no-tax policy and no pretense of underlying utility — positioning itself purely as a community and culture-driven token in the vein of Dogecoin and Shiba Inu. It surged to a market cap of roughly $1.6 billion shortly after launch and helped kick off a broader 2023 "memecoin season." PEPE/USDT is one of its most actively traded pairs, available on major exchanges including Binance, OKX, Gate, and Bitget. The token remains highly volatile and sentiment-driven — currently trading well below its all-time high of $0.0000284 (Dec 2024) but well above its all-time low of ~$0.0000006 (Sept 2023). Price action tends to track broader crypto risk appetite and social media momentum rather than fundamentals. Note: prices vary slightly by exchange and data source — always check your specific trading venue for the live rate before trading.
