DonAlt, a pseudonymous trader has warned his Twitter followers that the memecoin Pepe (PEPE) – a Dogecoin and Shiba Inu rival – is headed towards a total collapse and will eventually be worth nothing.
DonAlt’s prediction comes after Pepe experienced a meteoric rise of 2400% in value in just a matter of weeks, only to plummet soon after. According to DonAlt’s chart, the memecoin’s value is likely to hit zero in three-to-five years, leaving investors with nothing to show for their initial investment.
Why PEPE Price Dumped after the rise?
Sharing similar sentiments others too believe meme coins like PEPE are just hype and will eventually drop to “zero” due to their inability to withstand global crises. Many also view them as a distraction from Bitcoin. Despite early investors making a significant profit of up to 5807.64%, there is no fundamental basis for holding the coin long-term. After Binance’s listing, Pepe’s euphoria led to overvaluation. However, many were unconvinced and dumped.
Bitcoin’s Bleak Outlook
But it’s not just Pepe that DonAlt has his eye on. He also weighed in on Bitcoin’s future value, predicting that the king of cryptocurrencies will continue to dip in the near term. DonAlt cited the US government’s crackdown on cryptocurrency as one of the main factors influencing BTC value.
Furthermore, he is still bullish on Bitcoin’s potential and plans to reinvest once the anti-crypto push dies down.
“At $16,000, we were so deep in that the apocalypse could have struck and we wouldn’t have blinked. However, at $30,000, things change.”
Despite the trader’s warnings, Pepe’s value continues to trade at $0.00000159 as of writing, down 16.1% over the past 24 hours. Meanwhile, Bitcoin is trading at $27,161, down 3.9% during the same time period. Echoing a similar sentiment BTC is also rising slowly and steadily.
It remains to be seen whether DonAlt’s predictions will come to pass, but they have certainly captured the attention of crypto investors worldwide.
