Although Pepe (PEPE) is a figure that has recently taken the cryptocurrency industry by storm, it should not be forgotten that this is actually one of the most popular figures of the internet. Derived from internet forums, just like Dogecoin‘s mascot Shiba Inu once was, Pepe the Frog, or Pepe the Frog, has managed to turn its popularity into financial gain in a short time. Matt Furie, the creator of the PEPE figure, made an interesting statement.
Pepe’s Creator Doesn’t Know PEPE
Furie, who is not the name behind PEPE, which has attracted all eyes by achieving a record rise recently, but the figure who inspired it, does not actually know PEPE. In a Twitter Spaces broadcast yesterday, Furie stated that he did not know the cryptocurrency PEPE.
Mike Furie gave a DOGE-oriented answer to the PEPE question he was asked about the subject. The famous name stated the following about the subject:
“This is actually the first time I’ve heard of it. I’ve heard of Ethereum (ETH) and Bitcoin (BTC), and I’ve actually heard of Dogecoin. Is this (PEPE) something like that? I’m a Dogecoin maxi.”
The team behind Pepe (PEPE) may have made millions or even billions of dollars from this venture. Furie, who brought this figure to life, is even alleged to have received a share of this, while the famous name has not even heard of it.
PEPE Madness May Continue
Considering the all-time record level of the meme coin, it made an incredible 5,000% rise from the bottom to the top. PEPE, which was then caught in a sharp downward wave with the overall market, still managed to leave its mark on the last period.
Just 23 days ago, PEPE was trading at an all-time low of 0.000000055142 dollars. PEPE, which has fallen 56% from its all-time record in 5 days, is still about 3,000% above the bottom. PEPE, the 60th largest cryptocurrency by total market capitalization, reaches a daily trading volume of over $500 million. While interest in PEPE, which is also listed on many exchanges, is slowly waning, it shouldn’t be expected to disappear overnight. Dogecoin, which Furie is a fan of, went through similar times, but is now a fixture in the market.
