Here’s How Crypto Trader Turned $70 Into $7M

In an impressive crypto trading experience, a crypto investor turned his 0.035 Ethereum into millions of dollars after investing in a PEPE token. The Frog-themed token has been leading the popular meme coins list for years. However, the demand grew even higher in 2024, when it formed multiple ATH peaks, making heavy profits for its holders. It includes this one investor who spent 0.035 ETH ($70.4) to buy 2.61T PEPE worth $58.7M today.

An early buyer who spent only 0.035 $ETH($70.4) to buy 2.61T $PEPE($57.3M currently) deposited the remaining 189.4B $PEPE($4.15M) to #Kraken 50 minutes ago.

However, he sold a portion of these from time to time and managed to turn these $70.4 into $7.06M. The crypto investor’s most recent transaction was the deposition of  189.4B PEPE($4.15M) on Kraken on December 5, 2024.

Regardless, this person has made a 100,000x return over this $70, surprising the crypto trading community.

Similar Crypto Trading Experience In PEPE Token

PEPE is the 20th biggest cryptocurrency in the market thanks to its market capitalization of $10.59B. In the last 12 months alone, its price has increased 1401%, creating the ATH of $0.00002748 just 9 hours ago. However, it has moved 9% away from that currently trading at $0.00002516 with a trading volume of $6.83B. It clearly indicates the high demand for the token. Interestingly, such a profitable investor’s experience is growing its demand further. A memecoin investor turned $26 into $61.5M is another prime example of successful crypto trading in PEPE tokens.

Interestingly, in the last few days alone, Lookonchain has revealed two more crypto investors with high returns. One invested $241.5K and turned that into $7.53M after holding his token for a year. Another trader made $1.31M in profits after selling his 240B PEPE token.

A whale bought 240B $PEPE($3.64M) at a high price on May 29, and the price of $PEPE dropped afterward.

But instead of panic selling, he held on for 6 months.

Just 30 minutes ago, he sold his 240B $PEPE($4.95M), making a profit of $1.31M!https://t.co/PBnbhDLhjf pic.twitter.com/MPyfSkYMWs

What’s In There For You?

Meme coins have become the biggest attraction for the crypto trading industry in 2024. However, some memecoins scams are also equally repelling the new crypto investors, including this Hawk Tuah Girl memecoin controversy, where the Hawk coin pumped and crashed within a few hours, concerning the community over the possibility of a rug pull scam. That is why, investing in any cryptocurrencies, including PEPE tokens, requires intense research and strategies to stay profitable, like this crypto investor who turned $70 into $7M over two years.
