It marks another watershed moment in the vowel frog-themed meme coin’s ecosystem. This adds to its already-established popularity after the novel altcoin recorded incredible numbers following its massive adoption. Despite being in its latency stages, as it only debuted weeks ago (April 15), PEPE boasts a bloated community alongside a burgeoning number of investors.
Thus far, Pepe price has risen significantly, from a floor price of $0.000000001 upon launch to the current $0.00000114. In between, Pepe recorded an all-time high of $0.00000148 on May 1. The astonishing rally earned PEPE a place among CoinGecko’s top 100 cryptocurrencies, at #98 as of press time, with a market capitalization of $482.37 million and a 24-hour trading volume of $209.12 million.
The latest listing on the BitMEX exchange is certainly not the last, with speculations of Coinbase exchange lining up to list PEPE. This possibility sprouts from the idea of the US-based crypto exchange setting up a page on its website titled “How to buy PEPE.”

Pepe price forecast amid new exchanges listings
Pepe (PEPE) price is trading with a bullish bias, consolidating within an ascending triangle chart pattern. This chart pattern occurs in a mid-trend and signals a likely continuation of the overall bullish trend.
An increase in buying pressure could see Pepe price rise toward the upper boundary of the governing pattern at $0.00000138, denoting a 20% upswing. A breakout above this level could set the path for further gains.
The overall outlook of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 60 supports this bullish outlook, forecasting more room for the upside before PEPE is considered overbought.

Conversely, a breakout below the uptrend line of the governing chart pattern could see investors recording losses. Traders should watch for a decisive one-hour candlestick close under $0.000000886, as this support acts as the invalidation level for the bullish outlook.
