Pepe Coin Price Prediction: Crypto Analysis CEO Says Meme Coins Are “Dead” – But Is This the Exact Moment They Bounce Back?

CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju says the meme coin market is “dead,” casting doubt on a bullish Pepe price prediction as dominance slumps across the sector.

Meme coins now account for just 3.4% of the altcoin market, down from a 10.9% peak in November 2024, near the cycle’s low point.

This largely coincides with fading momentum around the election of the pro-crypto Trump administration. Regulatory shifts have not progressed at the pace expected, prompting corrections as geopolitical and macro FUD reclaim centre stage.

Without fresh liquidity or sustained social momentum, oversaturation, rug pulls, and eroding trust continue to encourage short-term speculative trading over community-driven HODLing.

Still, not everyone is bearish. Some market participants view the collapse in dominance as a potential bottom signal and a classic buy-the-dip opportunity.

Historically, meme coin cycles have seen explosive early-year rallies unwind for the remainder of the year, leaving 2026 as a possible window for the next revival.

Pepe Price Prediction: Is Another Bull Run Coming in 2026?

Pepe could be in for another run as a bullish double bottom evolves into an even stronger triple bottom reversal structure.

But this time, a higher low suggests buyers are stepping in sooner than they did on the previous drops, preventing the price from reaching the original support level at $0.000004.

The setup is highly bullish, and momentum indicators back it.

The RSI continues to form higher highs towards the 50 neutral line, a sign of buy pressure building beneath the surface, while the MACD holds out just above a near-death cross below the signal line.

For it to play out, the pattern neckline at $0.0000049 must flip to support to confirm a sustained upward move.

Fully realised, the pattern targets a measured 75% move to reclaim November Pepe price highs at $0.0000075.

And with supportive market conditions, such as a U.S. Fed adopting a quantitative easing (QE) strategy in 2026, greater risk appetite could support a 280% push to May highs at $0.0000165.

PepeNode: New Crypto Lets Users Mine Meme Coins With No Hardware

Those entering the market now face a decision: sit out and miss out on the next leg up, or enter and risk exposure to potential heavy losses.

PepeNode ($PEPENODE) makes it easy for anyone to get into crypto without stressing about perfect timing, which is where most people slip up.

It’s a fun mine-to-earn game where you can start building and earning with just a few clicks, no expensive hardware or tech skills needed.

Just log in, buy virtual nodes, stack rigs, and you can start mining meme coins, passively.

Momentum is climbing fast. The presale has already passed $2.35 million, while early stakers can still earn up to 554% APY.

And thanks to a built-in deflationary model, where 70% of all $PEPENODE spent on nodes and rigs is burned, scarcity supports long-term token value.

PepeNode offers a more measured way to capture high-upside market exposure, without relying on perfect entries or short-term price swings.

With just 23 days remaining in the presale, access later may come at a higher cost.
