Pepe Unchained ($PEPU)<\/a> has smashed past $9 million in funds raised in its blistering new presale, only six days after hitting $8 million. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Week-on-week, investors have been flocking into the new Pepe token, which runs on its own proprietary Layer 2 chain on Ethereum.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Between the presale’s rapid $8 million and $9 million milestones, one mysterious whale recently put $3.13 million on Pepe ($PEPE) during the dip, splitting it into two transactions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In a parallel development this week, there was a bustling surge of activity around Ethereum Layer 2 solutions. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Coinbase’s proprietary Base chain hit 3.6 million transactions on Monday. On Tuesday, all Layer 2 protocols collectively handled 12.44 million transactions. This demonstrates the clear growing use of scaling solutions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Timely Pepe fever, alongside the burgeoning Layer 2 activity, are causing several prominent Web3 influencers to buy and tout $PEPU, including Austin Hilton with 273,000 subscribers. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
