A dash for Pepe-themed tokens has emerged following Glauber Contessoto, widely known as the ‘Dogecoin Millionaire,’ predicting that they will be “clear winners” in the 2025 meme coin season.
While he backed Pepe for success, the brazen meme coin trader speculates that the entire “Pepeverse” could see substantial growth.
Pepe Tokens Boom On Dogecoin Millionaire’s Nod Of Approval
Glauber Contessoto made serious money in the 2021 bull run by HODLing Dogecoin – but now he’s turned to Pepe-themed projects.
Contessoto says two standout narratives for the forthcoming 2025 meme coin season are Pepe-themed and Dogecoin-themed cryptos.
However, he believes “The most popular of the two will be anything involving Pepe.”
Market leaders like Brett, Andy, Wolf, and PepeCoin will be in high order, according to Contessoto. However, he says:
“There will be plenty of different tokens made about them on different blockchains with different teams and communities backing them, and clear WINNERS will present themselves.”
There’s an entire category on CoinGecko dedicated to “frog-themed meme coins,” and it experienced a boom this week following Contessoto’s prediction.
Turbo, PepeCoin, and Apu Apustaja are three top-performing mid-caps, up 35%, 25%, and 23%, respectively.
However, many low caps have enjoyed even more substantial gains.
The frog-themed token sector is worth $4.6 billion today. In comparison, CoinGecko data shows the dog-themed sector is worth $28 billion.
That’s a significant discrepancy, considering one of the most renowned meme coin traders expects frog-themed tokens to win this cycle.
Yet, as it stands, there remains a big gap in the Pepeverse: it’s without a utility-centered token.
In the Dogeverse, there are Shiba Inu and Floki, which both offer Play-to-Earn games. Shiba Inu also has a slew of additional utilities. It’s these utilities that have helped distinguish the tokens and garner multi-billion-dollar market caps.
But most Pepe tokens are all competing for the same low-hanging fruit. However, there’s a new project that changes this.
It’s called Pepe Unchained and is building a meme coin-themed Ethereum layer 2 blockchain.
Pepe Unchained Raises $13.6M On L2 Plans – Best Meme Coin to Buy Now?
While tapping into the captivating allure of the Pepe brand, Pepe Unchained offers tangible utility through an Ethereum layer 2 blockchain.
It will be a scalable and accessible network that houses meme coins and related applications.
The project’s presale is ongoing, and it has raised $13.6 million in funding so far. This shows considerable support from investors.
The ‘Pepe Chain’ will be cheaper and 100x faster than Ethereum. It will also offer staking, a block explorer, and a dedicated Ethereum bridge.
Between a huge community and robust fundamentals, the future looks bright for Pepe Unchained.
Analysts have praised $PEPU’s meteoric presale success, pointing to it as an indication of future demand potential once it launches on exchanges.
Austin Hilton labeled it the “biggest meme coin launch” but highlighted that market participants still have an opportunity to buy at presale.
“It’s the biggest meme coin launch I can remember in quite a while,” he said.
Currently, investors can snag Pepe Unchained at presale for $0.0098.
However, this price will rise throughout the campaign, with the next increase in one day. As such, those seeking the most value for money should act quickly.
