Pepe Unchained (PEPU) is one of the most hyped meme coin presales in history, and it has now officially crossed the $40 million mark after raising over $5 million in the previous four days alone.
The presale is showing no sign of slowing down, and if it keeps raising funds at a similar pace, it is likely to surpass $60 million raised. However, its per-token price will keep increasing as the presale draws in more funds, which has investors rushing to secure their share of the token at its current price of $0.01295.
Pepe Unchained Intends to Unite Meme Coin Holders and Developers With Its Upcoming Layer 2 Blockchain
Pepe Unchained aims to join the $113 billion meme coin market as more than just another meme coin. With an Ethereum-based Layer 2 blockchain in the works, it intends to provide meme coin traders with 100x faster transaction speeds than Ethereum while charging lesser gas fees.
Encouraging meme coin traders to stay on the ETH network is also good news for meme coin developers who want to stay in its ecosystem while avoiding its downsides. Plus, PEPU has already launched a developer grants program and a coin launchpad, Pepe’s Pump Pad, which lets anyone launch new meme tokens without any coding knowledge.
With 12.5% of the total 8 billion token supply set aside for project development and chain inventory since the presale’s start, PEPU’s developers have made impressive progress on the project’s Layer 2 ecosystem.
Featuring bridging to the ETH network, a dedicated block explorer, advanced analytics, and other exciting features, PEPU’s Layer 2 is shaping up to become a modern and scalable solution. Plus, its developers shared news of the completion of an audit that confirms no critical issues have been found, with further details to be announced.
According to the update, Pepe Unchained Layer 2 will go live a few days after the PEPU ICO ends, which is scheduled to happen in just 22 days.
PEPU Announces Major Exchange Listings Once the Presale Wraps Up
According to PEPU’s developers, investors have a last chance to secure their share of PEPU before it lists on major exchanges, which the project is yet to reveal. With 40% of the total token supply allocated to the presale, there’s plenty of room for new investors to join before the presale ends in December.
A team of crypto experts with more than 709,000 subscribers on their YouTube channel, 99Bitcoins, believes PEPU will list on a Tier 1 exchange once the presale wraps up, naming Coinbase, Binance, and Robinhood as potential options.
As they anticipate a meme coin supercycle, the team believes PEPU has the potential to soar by 10x on launch, going up to 100,000x depending on its performance and future listings, which would help it outperform other meme coins.
With the presale’s end on the horizon, 99Bitcoins advises their followers to get into the presale while the token’s price is still low.
To bolster investor trust and security, the project also allocated 7.5% of its total token supply to liquidity, which lowers slippage and fosters a safer trading environment, and its smart contract underwent two independent audits. The audits were done by SolidProof and Coinsult, which found no critical errors in the contract’s code, ensuring investor funds are safe.
PEPU Community Takes Off Raising Almost 100,000 Followers
Beyond its memetic appeal and utility, Pepe Unchained offers robust security and has an active community of 91,000-strong follower base across X (Twitter), Facebook, and Telegram, which is often all a meme coin needs to succeed.
Plus, it’s set to join other meme coins in a market that doubled its market cap this month, which demonstrates investor confidence in meme coins and has experts optimistic about PEPU’s future.
To enter the presale, investors can purchase PEPU using BNB, ETH, USDT, or a credit or debit card, and no minimum investment is required. Plus, the presale partnered with Best Wallet, allowing investors to track their PEPU holdings in-app before the launch.
Additionally, investors can grow their PEPU token holdings via staking, which currently offers a 71% APY with more than 2.2 billion PEPU already locked in.
As the ICO’s clock ticks down, the per-token price of PEPU rises, giving an advantage to those who join early.
