Despite trailing behind Dogecoin and Shiba Inu in market cap—at $65.54 billion and $18.23 billion, respectively—$PEPE holds its position as the third-largest memecoin, though analysts believe it still faces an uphill battle to overtake $SHIB.

The global crypto market enjoying a strong bull run, largely driven by Bitcoin’s impressive rally—above the $103K zone. Further, Ethereum’s recent price breakout, reclaiming the $4K, has boosted the entire crypto ecosystem. The surge in ETH value has positively impacted Ethereum-based tokens, driving increased interest.

This has sparked optimism across the market, benefiting major altcoins, especially memecoins. Popular meme tokens like Shiba Inu ($SHIB) and Dogwifhat (WIF) have also seen exponential growth.
