PEPE Price Leads Meme Coin Surge as Capital Rotates to Risk Assets

Pepe coin, the frog-themed meme cryptocurrency jumped over 8% during Thursday’s U.S. market hours to hit $0.000004 high. This upswing follows the broader recovery in the meme coin market as capital rotates to higher-risk assets, supported by stable market sentiment. However, a stagnant trend in $PEPE’s open interest indicator suggests a lack of speculative force in the market. Can $PEPE price manage to reclaim the $0.000005 barrier?

Meme Coin Market Climbs 12% Amid Risk-On Sentiment Shift

In the last 24-hours, the meme coin sector witnessed a significant surge of over 12% to reach a market cap of $39.8 billion, according to Coingecko data. The buying pressure followed a sudden capital rotation to these volatile assets, as the escalation of the middle-east war has triggered a risk on sentiment.

Hopes for an extended U.S.–Iran ceasefire has stabilized markets, with Bitcoin reclaiming the $75,000 mark. The Fear and Greed Index of the cryptocurrency was at 56 as of April 16, 2026, which is squarely in the neutral zone. It is a level of equilibrium in the market sentiment and investors are not really scared or greedy.

Meme coins saw noticeable price increases during the day. $PEPE price climbed 9% to $0.000004, leading the segment. DOGEgained 3.07%, reaching $0.09601, while SHIB rose 3.41% to $0.00000606. These stable conditions showed positive price action in the meme sector in general.

However, the Pepe Open Interest (OI), projecting the outstanding value of outstanding futures and options contracts, averages around $194 million on Thursday. According to coinglass, the OI value has remained stagnant since early February, indicating a wait-and-see approach from institutions and traders. It suggests that while existing positions aren’t being aggressively closed, no significant “new money” is ente

⚡ Ethereum Approaching Breakout Zone

Ethereum is currently showing strong signs of momentum as it approaches a key resistance level. Over the past 24 hours, ETH has maintained stability while slowly pushing upward, indicating controlled buying pressure. This kind of movement often signals that a breakout could be forming soon.

Market sentiment around Ethereum is improving, especially as investors shift focus back to fundamentally strong assets. Unlike meme coins, ETH benefits from real-world use cases including DeFi, NFTs, and smart contracts, which continue to drive long-term demand.

Another important factor is the steady increase in network activity. More users interacting with decentralized applications means higher demand for ETH, which supports price growth over time.

If Ethereum successfully breaks above resistance, it could trigger a strong rally not only for ETH but also for the broader altcoin market.
