PEPE price is still up by 21% in the last 30 days despite registering a dump of 10% over the last 24 hours. Its 24-hour trading volume also took a hit of 34% to stand at $1.18 billion. PEPE is trading at an average price of $0.00000921, at press time.

Will Hayes stand with MOTHER now?

Earlier, Arthur Hayes had stated that “We’re on the brink of a meme coin breakout,” and then he went all-in with some wild choices. Meanwhile, the biggest of the meme coins printed red indexes as Bitcoin (BTC) struggles to regain the $62,000 mark.

Hayes even tweeted at Iggy Azalea, the creator of $MOTHER, asking if she could be his “mother”, a bold show of support for her meme coin. MOTHER price is now down by over 30% in the last 7 days. Its 24-hour trading volume is down by 22% to stand at $15 million.
