The entire cryptocurrency market was painted red over the past 24 hours. The meme coin market, in particular, took a massive hit. Assets like Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), and Pepe Coin (PEPE) took a backseat. PEPE recorded a new all-time high of $0.00002825 just eleven days ago. But now, the meme coin is trading 45% below its peak. Will the asset recover during the weekend and bring in gains for PEPE investors?

PEPE Records Double-Digit Drop
Over the past 24 hours, the meme coin recorded a massive downfall of 20%. At the time of writing, PEPE was trading at $0.00001544. The cryptocurrency was trading at a high of $0.00001960 earlier today.
The latest drop in the asset was related to the overall market downfall. The cryptocurrency market hit resistance levels and was seen taking a break from the recent spike in response to a difficult stretch for US stock markets and the announcement of another Fed rate decrease. It’s important to remember that even PEPE’s setback represents a possible uptick.

The 150 billion PEPE was valued at $2.94 million. This data was recently brought to light by the prominent firm Lookonchain. It seems like the frog-themed cryptocurrency could see more whale activity as the price of the asset has dipped over the past day.
