Pepe Unchained ($PEPU) has successfully raised $21 million in its presale, coinciding with meme coins reaching a collective market value of $62 billion on Monday.
Fresh off its recent $20 million milestone, the rapidly rising meme coin has attracted over $1.2 million in new contributions in just the past four days.
At its current pace, reaching the $22 million mark this week seems highly achievable, especially as interest in the project has surged following the announcement of grant applications to test its upcoming Layer 2 chain.
The cryptocurrency market has done a complete 180 after a sluggish start to the month, and Pepe Unchained is seizing this momentum to attract even more contributors to its fundraising efforts.
Interested participants can acquire $PEPU at the current price of $0.0112 per token, but time is of the essence. Less than 24 hours remain before the next funding stage raises the price to $0.0115.
Since the $PEPU presale launch, the token price has surged by 40%, and the upcoming round will see a further increase of approximately 3.75%.
Uptober Heats Up: USDT, APE Lead Gains As Pepe Unchained Preps Own Blockchain, Ala ApeChain
The total market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies has surged to a dazzling $2.36 trillion, with Tether ($USDT), the third-largest cryptocurrency, playing a pivotal role by achieving a remarkable $120 billion valuation on Sunday.

Tether’s ascent signals the end of a seven-month downtrend and hints that investors are loading up on the stablecoin to dive into other cryptocurrencies.
Excitement is brewing over a potential push for Bitcoin ($BTC) to reach new all-time highs, especially as the much-anticipated “Uptober” unfolds. According to CoinMarketCap data, market sentiment is shifting back to greed for the first time since July.
Another standout performer is ApeCoin ($APE), which has experienced a stunning 107% increase in just the past week. In fact, it has skyrocketed by 200% from its lowest point this year, reaching a market cap of $1.5 billion.
This impressive surge is primarily fueled by the launch of ApeChain, the token’s very own blockchain network, designed to support minting non-fungible tokens (NFTs), trading, and decentralized applications.
In the meme coin sector, Pepe Unchained is one of the rising tokens. Like ApeCoin, it features its own proprietary blockchain. Remarkably, it has performed spectacularly in just four months of fundraising efforts.
Its latest milestone coincides with the sector reaching a $62 billion market cap, driven by a growing community and increased whale participation.
Whale Buys, Growing Community Fire Up Pepe Unchained Presale
Whale purchases are becoming increasingly common for Pepe Unchained. One whale acquired 5 million $PEPU tokens for approximately $50,000 earlier this month.
Several whale purchases were made in the previous month, each exceeding $50,000.
These whale purchases are significant, as they indicate a movement of smart money; whales are often institutions or investors with insights that surpass those of the average investor.
On Monday, another whale exchanged $53,563 worth of ETH for 4.6 million $PEPU tokens.

This influx of new capital coincides with the rapid growth of the Pepe Unchained community.
On X, the token is quickly gaining followers, now boasting 51,100 – just 17,100 short of the original PepeCoin ($PEPECOIN).
For a token still in presale, the substantial investor capital and the strong backing from a growing community suggest that $ PEPU’s potential is just beginning to unfold, with no telling how massive it could become once it can tap the liquidity of exchanges.
