They now hold 643 billion tokens, a big increase from 258 billion in May this year. Smart money investors have a reputation of executing profitable trades.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>More data shows that Pepe\u2019s demand has been soaring in the futures market. Its futures open interest has jumped in the last seven consecutive days, reaching a high of $720 million, the highest level this month.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The soaring open interest has coincided with a prolonged period of positive funding rate. A positive funding rate is a sign that market participants are hopeful that the future price will be higher than the spot one.<\/p>\n<p>A potential catalyst for Pepe is that Ethereum (ETH) price has gone vertical and is approaching its all-time high. ETH jumped to $4,100 as demand from American investors soared.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It is common for meme coins in a chain to rally when the main token is experiencing a surge. For example, tokens like Dogwifhat (WIF) and Bonk (BONK) often jump when Solana price is rising.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pepe price technical analysis<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3574\" height=\"2038\" src=\"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1754758925_895_Pepe-price-rises-as-whale-accumulation-jumps-amid-ETH-boom.png\" alt=\"Pepe price chart\" class=\"wp-image-14404255\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Pepe price chart | Source: crypto.news<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The daily timeframe chart shows that the Pepe Coin price has been in a strong uptrend in the past few months.
