Pepe Coin, a prominent meme-based cryptocurrency, has faced a steep 55% price decline since November 2024. This crash aligns with broader trends in the altcoin market, particularly among meme coins like Shiba Inu and Bonk. However, despite the downtrend, on-chain indicators signal that the coin might be gearing up for a bullish reversal.
Data from Coinglass highlights a divergence between Pepe Coin’s price and its futures open interest (OI). While the price dropped, OI has surged to over $400 million, significantly higher than December 2023’s $140 million.

Additionally, spot trading volumes for Pepe Coin remained robust, with $1.07 billion traded on Tuesday—outpacing rival meme coins like Shiba Inu and Floki. This elevated trading activity suggests heightened investor attention and possible market volatility ahead.
The 30-day MVRV indicator has entered the buy zone (-15% to -25%), currently hovering at -23%. Historically, this level signals investor losses, often leading to capitulation by short-term holders and increased buying activity by long-term investors.
If this trend holds, Pepe Coin could be primed for a similar price spike in the coming weeks.
A drop below $0.00000895 would invalidate the bullish trend, signaling further bearish momentum tied to a head-and-shoulders pattern.
Pepe Coin’s current trajectory suggests a critical juncture for investors. With whale activity, robust open interest, and MVRV buy signals, the coin appears poised for a rebound. However, caution is warranted as market volatility remains high. Investors should monitor the key price levels closely as the frog-themed crypto prepares for its next leap.
