Here are some of the top reasons why now could be the best time for crypto traders and investors to buy PEPE.

Coinbase Expands Support For PEPE

Notably, Coinbase, one of the leading CEXs worldwide, recently commenced Pepe perpetual futures contracts trading on its platform, expanding the support offered to the meme token. This perpetual listing event appears to have brought about a remarkable rising price action in PEPE, enabling participants outside the United States to leverage trading the asset. 

Staging as optimistic news for PEPE, this listing event was followed by nearly 50% gains noted by the token. Meanwhile, it’s also worth noting that Coinbase initially planned to commence perpetual trading for the token as of April 11. However, the listing was postponed due to technical hurdles until it was unveiled on April 23.

PEPE Accumulation by Whales & Market Maker Burgeons

Amber Group, a market maker, accumulated a staggering 110 billion PEPE from Binance today, April 25. Moreover, a recent analysis by CoinGape Media further highlighted a 211.6 billion PEPE accumulation by a whale, pouring a flurry of market optimism to the token.

This phenomenon, showcasing colossal accumulations surrounding the frog-themed meme coin, projects a ray of optimism into Pepe coin’s future, underscoring increased confidence in the asset’s cryptographic journey.

PEPE’s open interest surged 4.28%, whereas its derivatives volume spiked 9.66%, portraying a bullish mindset of investors. Aligning with this, substantial new money entered the market as open interest rested at $75.42 million, whereas the derivatives volume stood at $1.13 billion.
