On the hourly price chart, PEPE coin started retracing as buying pressure cooled down for now. Buyers found rejection at the $0.000001430 top twice, resulting in a price pattern suggesting a double top formation on the hourly chart. This could also be due to selling pressure on popular cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. 

At press time, PEPE coin is trading at $0.00000132, while the coin is up 4.3% today. Meanwhile, the trading volume increased by almost 70% to $550 million in the last 24 hours.

Looking at its rising popularity, centralized crypto exchange like OKX has started to list it on their market.
