Pepe Coin Whale Dumps Over 1 Tln PEPE To Binance, What’s Next?
A Pepe Coin whale caused a stir across the broader cryptocurrency market on Monday, heavily offloading PEPE to crypto exchange Binance. Recent on-chain data flagged over 1 trillion coins dumped into the mentioned exchange, raising concerns amid the frog-themed meme coin’s bearish run. PEPE price traded down roughly 2% intraday, whereas weekly charts showed a dip of over 10%.
Crypto market enthusiasts speculate over what lies ahead for one of the most renowned meme coin in the market in light of recent events.
Pepe Coin Whale Offloads Over 1 Trillion Coins Raising Market Concerns
One of the latest updates from Whale Alert on October 28 indicated that a Pepe coin whale transferred 1.27 trillion coins, worth $11.51 million, to Binance. As per the data, the unknown address 0x3…dc8 shifted the abovementioned amount to the crypto exchange, raising selloff concerns among market participants.
The loss of large-scale investors’ confidence in the asset’s potential to offer gains, as hinted by the whale dump, has urged a sense of apprehensiveness among market traders and investors. However, it’s also worth mentioning that the address still holds 208.26 billion PEPE, worth $1.87 million, bringing intrigue to the matter.
Meanwhile, other token holdings for the same address included Fantom (FTM), Worldcoin (WLD), and Shiba Inu (SHIB), among 25 others. Overall, the massive dump, bringing additional selling pressure to the asset, has set off bearish waves for the frog-themed meme cryptocurrency across the crypto space.
PEPE Price Continues to Drop
Simultaneously, PEPE price chart showcased a highly volatile movement over the past day, down 0.08% and trading at $0.000009015. The coin’s 24-hour low and peak were $0.000008786 and $0.000009257, respectively. Notably, the weekly chart showcased a 13% drop in value, whereas the monthly chart indicated an 18% dip. The coin’s slumping action has raised bearish investor sentiments, further solidified by the aforementioned massive whale dump.
However, Coinglass data indicated a 5% increase in PEPE futures OI to $130.28 million. Further, the derivatives volume for the token rose 26% to $381 million. This data conversely hinted at slightly increased investor interest in the asset despite the abovementioned bearish factors.
Besides, recent Etherscan data shows that Pepe Coin holders have been on a constant rise in recent days. As per the data, nearly 296K addresses hold the meme token, indicating strong market confidence in the asset. This data has painted a picture quite contrary to the abovementioned whale dump, indicating that the token could see potential gains ahead.
Moreover, a recent Pepe Coin price analysis by CoinGape Media pointed out that the token’s supply on exchanges noted a significant drop, adding to sentiments of a bullish price trajectory looming for the crypto. Market watchers continue to monitor the coin for future price action shifts.

While predictions for Cardano to $1 may seem like a far cry, a cryptocurrency expert has injected new life into the claims. Cardano’s price is headed below 50 cents in search of a new support zone that can serve as a springboard to reach new highs.
Cardano Price Can Still Clinch $1 Despite Price Slump
Market technician Jonathan Carter in an analysis on X predicts that Cardano’s price can reclaim the $1 price point in the coming months. According to Carter, the recent ADA correction will not be a hindrance for Cardano’s price to reach $1.
ADA has lost a jarring 13% over the last week and trades at $0.64 in an unremarkable week for the cryptocurrency. On the daily charts, prices have generally moved sideways, underscoring a lack of investor enthusiasm.
For Carter, Cardano’s recent decline has seen it fail to stay above the $0.65 support level. The analyst opined that a downtrend is the offing for the Cardano price that could see a new support zone of $0.59. Carter says the new $0.59 support zone will hurl Cardano price to reach $1.
“Despite the long correction, the price still has a chance to bounce off this support and rise towards $1,” said Carter. “Otherwise, we will fall to the lower border of the broadening wedge.”
While some investors are eyeing an ADA bounce to $0.70, a plausible play will be a slump below $0.60 before the start of a rally.
A Slew Of Positives For ADA
Despite the pervading negative sentiment around ADA price, the cryptocurrency has a wave of positive fundamentals going for it. Cardano price spiked following Charles Hoskinson’s confirmation of Ripple’s RLUSD on ADA.
Furthermore, Charles Hoskinson reveals that Cardano will play a major role in Bitcoin decentralized finance (DeFi) application. In more positive technicals, Cardano price is forming a cyclical pattern from 2024 that can send prices to astronomical proportions in May.
While the prediction pegged prices at $2.5, optimists say ADA price to $10 is not a crazy hypothesis. The report cites present solid fundamentals and ADA’s over 1,000% spike to set its all-time high back in 2021 as pointers for the seismic rally to $10.

Crypto analyst CasiTrades has provided a roadmap for the XRP price, revealing what could happen before the altcoin reaches a new all-time high (ATH). Based on her analysis, XRP could still witness a price decline before it potentially rallies past its current ATH of $3.4.
XRP Price Could Drop To $1.9 Before Rally To New Highs
In an X post, CasiTrades stated that in the event of a deeper flush, the XRP price could wick down to $1.90, suggesting that the altcoin could visit this low before it rallies to new highs. She believes XRP will ideally hold above this $1.90 and avoid dropping to new lows.
The crypto expert noted that the next move is critical. She claimed that if XRP gets that flush with bullish RSI divergence, it could mark the bottom before the altcoin rockets into Wave 3. However, CasiTrades warned that a break below $1.90 could force a reset of the entire new trend count.
Meanwhile, there is still the possibility that the XRP price might not drop to as low as $1.90. CasiTrades stated that $1.95 is the prime target, with subwaves heavily aligning there and a drop to $1.90 only likely to occur in the event of a deeper flush.
It is worth mentioning that US President Donald Trump recently announced reciprocal tariffs on all countries, a move which is set to ignite a global trade war and is bearish for XRP and the broader crypto market. As such, this development could be what sparks the deeper flush and send the altcoin to as low as $1.90.
A Drop To $1.4 Is Also The Cards
In an X post, crypto analyst Brandon asserted that the XRP price is about to have a massive breakout, to the downside. His accompanying chart showed that XRP could drop to as low as $1.4.
On the other hand, crypto analysts such as Ali Martinez have provided a bullish outlook for the XRP price. In an X post, he stated that XRP could be setting up for a rebound. The analyst further remarked that the altcoin is holding above $2 while the TD Sequential flashes a buy signal.
Crypto analyst Javon Marks also recently predicted that Ripple’s coin could surge 44x and reach as high as $99. He alluded to the 2017 bull run as the reason why he is confident that the altcoin could record such a parabolic rally.

Shiba Inu price is on a strong bearish trend, with price indicators recording losses in all time frames. The highly popular meme token now threatens to add an additional zero to its value if the current bear run continues for much longer. Even with Shibarium, SHIB’s layer-2, reaching the milestone of 1 billion transactions recently, the token’s price has not responded positively to this milestone.
Falling Shiba Inu Price Affects Holder Profitability
According to current data, SHIB is down 4.6% in the past 24 hours, 14.7% over seven days and a substantial 54.9% over the past year.
The current context for the SHIB price appears tough for the majority of investors. Based on on-chain analytics, 62% of SHIB investors are at the moment in a loss, while merely 34% are in profit and 4% are breaking even as per IntoTheBlock data.
SHIB has fallen 85.9% from its all-time high of $0.00008616 on October 28, 2021, over three years ago. This extended period of decline has made many of the investors who bought during the bull run in 2021 underwater on their holdings.
The token reflects a high ownership concentration with 74% of SHIB owned by major holders. The concentration may be behind price volatility. This is due to the fact that the moves by the large holders tend to have disproportionate impacts on the market. Major volume trading in the last week has hit $184.02 million which indicates sustained activity even as the price goes down.
Shibarium Milestone Fails To Reverse Trend
Despite Shiba Inu’s layer-2 scaling solution, Shibarium recently achieved a major milestone of 1 billion transactions. However, this accomplishment has not translated into positive price action for SHIB. This disconnect between ecosystem development and token price shows the current market’s focus on overall trends rather than project-specific achievements.
Shibarium is a key component of the Shiba Inu ecosystem that focuses on reducing transaction fees, increasing processing speed, and enabling more advanced applications within the SHIB ecosystem.
The continued negative price action despite reaching such a substantial transaction milestone raises questions about what catalysts might eventually reverse SHIB’s downward trend.
Will Shiba Inu Token Burns Aid In Price Pump?
The Shiba Inu community has historically highlighted token burns as one possible method of driving scarcity and price support. Recent burn behavior has been spotty and inadequate to have any real effect on the enormous Shiba Inu token supply.
After a recent spike in burn rate of more than 12,000%, the last 24 hours have seen the burn rate decline by 60%. During this period, only 37.6 million SHIB tokens were removed from circulation as per Shibburn data.
Token burns continue to be a mainstay narrative among the SHIB community. However, the volume of burning has to rise in order to have an effect on the token’s supply that can be measured. The 17.88% hike in trading volume in the last 24 hours to $311.14 million gives some indications of market action. This potentially could be being driven by the larger holders stockpiling at lower prices.
