Concerns Arise Over Pepe Memecoin's Launch Narrative

Recent analysis has cast a shadow over the Pepe token's reputation, revealing that a large portion of its initial supply was concentrated in the hands of a single entity. As analysts warn in the report, this discovery challenges the project's branding as a 'coin for the people' and raises concerns about its long-term viability.

Concentration of Pepe Token Supply

According to data from blockchain visualization platform Bubblemaps, nearly one-third of the Pepe token supply was held by a single wallet at the time of its launch in April 2023. This concentration has led to significant selling pressure, with the same wallet cluster offloading $2 million worth of PEPE tokens just a day after the launch.

Impact on Market Cap and Price

The implications of this selling activity have been profound, preventing the token from reaching a $12 billion market cap and contributing to a staggering 57% drop in PEPE's price within the last 24 hours. Over the past year, the token has experienced an alarming 81% decline, raising serious questions about the project's integrity and future prospects.

In contrast to the concerns surrounding the Pepe token's supply concentration, the MUTM token is poised for growth through an innovative buyback system. This approach aims to enhance its value and sustainability for investors. Read more.
