PEPE May Crash Another 20% if This Support Breaks
TL;DR
Price Holds at Key Support Level
PEPE was priced at $0.0000096 at the time of writing, down 1% in the past 24 hours and 6% over the last seven days. On a daily chart, the asset sits near the lower border of a Symmetrical Triangle. This region has acted as support, although recent action suggests growing pressure from the upper side of the range.
Notably, the market has shown a pattern of lower highs, which signals ongoing selling pressure. Buyers have managed to hold the support so far, but the current structure leaves little room. According to a post by Alpha Crypto Signal,
Trading Volume and Liquidation Trends
Data shows a 15% decrease in trading volume, now at $980 million. Open interest is also down by 4%, sitting at $535 million. These drops suggest fewer active positions in the market, often a sign of reduced participation before a larger move.
On the liquidation side, long positions have taken the brunt of recent moves. Long liquidations totaled over $326K, while shorts accounted for only $9,900. OKX was the exchange with the highest long liquidations at $288,300.

On-Chain Activity Continues to Decline
As of August 3, PEPE recorded 2,599 active addresses, continuing a broader downward trend in such activity that began in late 2024.
Daily active addresses reached a high of nearly 27,500 in November 2024 during a price rally. Since then, both the address count and price have dropped. Throughout 2025, active wallets have remained below the zone of 5,000, essentially witnessing a decline in user activity on the network.

The next area to watch will be around $0.0000085 and $0.0000080 if the price breaks through the support line at $0.0000095, followed by strong volume. A recovery above $0.0000115 is needed to change the current setup.
Until then, trading volume, liquidation data, and on-chain usage continue to promote a cautious outlook for the token.
