CM Profile: Pepe
Cryptominium Profile. What we have established, measured and written about PEPE, and what we have not.
- Measured
- Selling $100,000 on 2 exchange order books lost between 0.13% and 0.50%, on 8 October 2026.
- Its price, recorded by us every day since 9 August 2026.
- Written, with sources
- Not established
- What an on-chain sale would return on BNB Chain and Ethereum. It trades mostly off-chain there, so we do not measure it on-chain.
- 2 of its chains are not among the 3 we read.
- Whether it can be held without a company. We have no sourced answer yet.
- 4 other questions about what it can do have no written answer. Some may not apply to it.

What it actually costs to sell PEPE
Selling $100,000 of PEPE into each exchange’s resting bids, measured against the mid price:
| Exchange | Lost | Got back | Measured |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kraken PEPE/USD | 0.13% | $99,874 | 2026-10-08 |
| Coinbase PEPE/USD | 0.50% | $99,501 | 2026-10-08 |
Exchange figures need an account there (and KYC, a permitted country, the tokens already deposited), are before trading fees, and are never averaged with the on-chain figure. Binance is not included: it refuses requests from the region our servers are in. How this is measured →
Watch this number instead of remembering it. A free account keeps PEPE on a list, records where it stood the day you added it, and emails you if selling it on these exchanges gets materially harder — one message, not a series. The measurement itself stays public; the account is for being told when it moves without you looking.
What Pepe is
Pepe launched in April 2023 as an Ethereum token built around a long-running internet meme, created by an anonymous team. It was unusual for being explicit about what it was: no roadmap, no promised utility, no claim to be building anything. Its own materials stated that it had no intrinsic value and was intended purely for entertainment.
Mechanically it was set up in the way an audience had learned to look for by then — no transfer taxes, liquidity pool tokens burned so the market could not simply be withdrawn, and contract ownership renounced so the rules could not be changed afterwards. Those checks are the reason it was taken more seriously than most tokens of its kind.
What it is not is an investment with a thesis. There is nothing generating value, nothing to analyse and no floor of any kind — the price is a pure function of attention. Holdings were heavily concentrated early on, so a small number of wallets could move it substantially. In August 2023 tokens were moved out of the project's shared wallet amid a public dispute between team members, a reminder that "the team cannot change the contract" is not the same as "the team cannot sell". Falls of seventy percent or more have been routine.

Our own measurement · measured 8 October 2026
PEPE pays nothing for being held. Its own site calls it a meme coin "with no intrinsic value or expectation of financial return".

PEPE can be held and sent, and that is all it does. Its own site says there is no team and no roadmap.

The supply was fixed at 420.69 trillion tokens when PEPE was created, and the project says nobody controls the contract any longer.

Where PEPE lives
On Ethereum, Base and BNB Chain, GoPlus's analysis of each contract is read weekly: whether it has a function to block addresses or pause transfers, and whether an owner holds it. That is GoPlus's reading, not ours. Where a token exists on several chains, one copy's settings say nothing about the original coin.
Always verify a contract address against the project's own site before sending anything. Addresses are shown as published by CoinGecko, not as an endorsement — and identical-looking tokens on other chains are the most common way people lose money here.
