Why Is The Meme Coin Rallying?
With Bitcoin (BTC) regaining the $64,000 milestone, the cryptocurrency market may be beginning a recovery phase. This development could explain PEPE’s most recent increase.
One possible reason for the market’s recovery could be the approaching US Presidential Elections. A lot of analysts, including some at Standard Chartered, think that a win by Donald Trump may lead to a rise in the entire market.

PEPE’s rally could also be due to market participants expecting another 25 basis point interest rate cut from the Federal Reserve in November. Rate cuts usually lead to investors taking on more risks, and meme coins are among the most risky assets.
PEPE Predicted To Hit A New All-Time High
The meme coin is currently down by nearly 39% from its all-time high of $0.00001717, which it attained in May 2024.
According to the analysts at CoinCodex, PEPE will continue to rally over the next few weeks. The platform predicts the asset to hit a new all-time high of $0.00003247 on Nov. 11, 2024. Hitting $0.00003247 from current price levels will translate to a rally of about 211.02%.
