BREAKING: Pepe (PEPE) Surges 28% to $0.00000485 on Heavy Volume
BREAKING: Meme cryptocurrency Pepe (PEPE) has exploded 28% in the past 24 hours, reaching $0.00000485 as of February 15, 2026, with massive trading volume indicating strong market interest.
Price Surge Details
PEPE recorded a 24-hour gain of 27.95%, climbing from a low of $0.00000377 to a high of $0.00000499. The token is currently trading at $0.00000485, representing significant momentum for the frog-themed meme coin.
The price surge added approximately $447 million to PEPE’s market capitalization, which now stands at $2.04 billion. This positions the token at rank #41 among all cryptocurrencies by market cap.
Trading Volume Spikes
Trading activity has intensified dramatically, with 24-hour volume reaching $883.6 million. This elevated volume suggests strong buying pressure and active participation from both retail and institutional traders.
The last hour has seen a slight pullback of 1.95%, which analysts often interpret as normal profit-taking following a significant rally.
Weekly and Monthly Performance
The recent surge extends PEPE’s 7-day gains to 25.29%, indicating sustained bullish momentum over the past week. However, the token remains down 17.85% over the past 30 days, suggesting this rally may represent a recovery from recent losses.
PEPE’s fully diluted valuation matches its market cap at $2.04 billion, as all 420.69 trillion tokens are in circulation. The token remains approximately 82.7% below its all-time high of $0.00002803, which was reached on December 9, 2024.
Market Context
The surge comes amid renewed interest in meme cryptocurrencies, though no specific catalyst has been immediately identified for today’s rally. PEPE has gained 8,700% from its all-time low of $0.000000055142, recorded in April 2023.
Traders should note the high volatility typical of meme tokens, with PEPE demonstrating significant price swings in both directions. The current rally’s sustainability will depend on continued volume and broader market conditions.
