June has been a turbulent month for PEPE, with the popular Ethereum-based memecoin experiencing significant price drops. However, investor confidence and market indicators suggest there might still be room for a turnaround. Will technical analysis, community faith, and external factors like Elon Musk's influence help PEPE regain its footing?
A Difficult Year: PEPE Loses 35% This Month and 25.7% YTD
PEPE has struggled to maintain its bullish momentum in 2025. The memecoin is down:
- 35% this month.
- 10.38% in the past week.
- 25.7% year-to-date losses, wiping out any profitability for 2025 investors.
The current price trajectory places PEPE firmly in bearish territory, with no investor who purchased this year turning a profit. Yet, PEPE retains a notable position, ranking as the third-largest memecoin with a market cap of $3.9 billion, trailing only Shiba Inu ($6.7 billion) and Dogecoin ($24.1 billion).
The consistent decline reflects broader market skepticism about memecoins' sustainability in a bearish environment. PEPE’s inability to sustain its previous rallies highlights a structural issue: reliance on speculative narratives without tangible utility.
Loyal Investors: 37% Hold PEPE for Over a Year
Despite the market downturn, PEPE boasts a core group of steadfast investors:
- 37% of holders have not sold any tokens for over a year.
- 57% of wallets contain between 1 and 12 million tokens, remaining inactive.
- 75% of the supply is controlled by whales, with 46% of all holders still profitable despite the current slump.
This data underscores a dichotomy in the PEPE ecosystem: while whales and long-term holders dominate, smaller investors may face diminishing returns. The inactivity of many wallets raises questions about whether these tokens are genuinely held by “diamond hands” or are simply abandoned.
Elon Musk Sparks Hope with Viral Meme
Elon Musk’s recent sharing of a PEPE-themed meme, viewed over 60 million times, reignited hope in the PEPE Army. This parallels previous instances where Musk's engagement significantly influenced market sentiment, including a December rally that propelled PEPE's market cap to over $10 billion.

Technical Indicators Signal a Possible Reversal:
- RSI at 30.85: This suggests PEPE is oversold, potentially primed for a rebound.
- Key Support Zone: PEPE is consolidating between $0.00000830 and $0.00000872, which historically has led to bullish reversals.
- Trading Volume Recovery: $2.4 billion in daily transactions represents a 5.4% increase, indicating renewed interest.
Musk's involvement often acts as a catalyst, but it may only provide short-term relief. Sustainable recovery requires breaking resistance levels around $0.00002000 and demonstrating long-term growth beyond speculative rallies.
