The Pepe Coin price has surged to $0.00000124 in the past 24 hours, with its 15% rise in the past 24 hours making it the best-performing meme token in the market right now.
Despite this gain, PEPE remains down by 1.5% in the last 7 days and by 15% in the last 30, with the altcoin also having declined by 71% since hitting an all-time high of $0.00000431 in early May.

And it could fall hard even before its technical indicators reach 'overbought' positions, such is the coin's volatility.
A big reason why PEPE has risen and
