Pepe Price Hits ATH After Exchange Listings
The recent Pepe listings have reminded us of the instrumental role that centralized exchanges (CEXs) continue to play – especially in bull markets.

The frog-themed meme token has surged 77% today, as well as 125% this week and 1,955% this year.
Its trading volume has also experienced a huge run-up, jumping 197% in the past 24 hours to $19.8 billion. For reference, that makes it the fifth most-traded cryptocurrency.
Coinbase announced they’ll list Pepe on Wednesday, and it went live just a couple of hours later. The listing announcement cautioned that Pepe should only be sent via the Ethereum network.
