PEPE Memecoin Surges by 31% Following $5.5M Token Burn

PEPE Memecoin's price surged by 31% following the burning of 6.9 trillion tokens worth a total of $5.5 million.

  • PEPE's token burn was a response to the unauthorized transfer of $15 million worth of tokens to various crypto exchanges, causing a significant price drop.

  • Token burning (removing tokens from circulation) was used to decrease the token's supply and boost its value.

  • A developer revealed that the project had been plagued by inner strife, with some team members prioritizing ego and greed over the community's well-being.

  • Despite the burn, PEPE still holds 3.79 trillion tokens valued at approximately $3.72 million, with a 24-hour trading volume of about $397 million.

  • Since, the project is seeking new advisors and has moved its communications to Discord.
