币界网报道：Major altcoin holders have been reallocating capital amid growing hype around a potential Pepe-themed ETF, according to recent on-chain data. Large investors in cryptocurrencies like Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Dogecoin (DOGE) have reportedly started moving funds into Pepe (PEPE) tokens over the past week, driving a 40% price surge for the meme coin. Analysts attribute this shift to speculation that asset managers may file for a Pepe ETF following the success of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Blockchain analytics firm Nansen noted unusual accumulation patterns, with several "whale" wallets purchasing over $2 million worth of PEPE within 48 hours. Meanwhile, trading volumes for PEPE across major exchanges have tripled compared to monthly averages, reaching $800 million daily. Some market participants remain skeptical, pointing out that no traditional financial institution has yet confirmed plans for such a product. The Pepe token, originally created as an internet meme cryptocurrency in 2023, currently holds a $1.5 billion market capitalization, ranking it among the top 50 cryptocurrencies. This capital rotation comes as broader altcoin markets show signs of recovery, with the total crypto market cap climbing back above $2.3 trillion. Industry observers suggest the meme coin sector could see increased institutional interest if ETF rumors materialize, though regulators might scrutinize such products more heavily than Bitcoin ETFs due to their speculative nature.
