PEPE jumps 17% as Bitcoin rally, Technical breakout and Whale Buying Align
The post PEPE jumps 17% as Bitcoin rally, Technical breakout and Whale Buying Align appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Altcoins PEPE surged 17% over the past 24 hours, outperforming most altcoins as bullish momentum from Bitcoin’s all-time high, a key technical breakout, and aggressive whale accumulation drove a wave of memecoin speculation. Bitcoin’s rise to $116,000 on July 10—its highest level since mid-May—sparked renewed interest in high-beta assets.

Despite RSI (7) hitting 79.79, suggesting short-term overbought conditions, the combination of technical breakout, whale accumulation, and Bitcoin-led momentum gives PEPE a strong near-term setup.
