PEPE whales transfer to stock markets
While these whales are making waves in the MKR market, they are also keeping a close eye on the altcoin PEPE, which has been making headlines due to intra-team conflicts and price fluctuations. Wintermute Trading, a leading market making company, recently transferred 8.3 trillion PEPE tokens worth $5.43 million to centralized exchanges. However, a cryptocurrency whale with short wallet address 0x9d5 continued to accumulate significant amounts of PEPE from exchanges. In addition to these movements, a significant number of PEPE tokens were moved to centralized exchanges throughout the day, each with a minimum value exceeding $100,000. Despite these developments, PEPE managed to gain 16% in value in the last 24 hours. cryptokoin.com As we reported, last month, a controversy arose when some of the main developers of the PEPE token sold a significant number of tokens from multisig wallets, which was seen as a betrayal by the main team of the project.
