The crypto world is no stranger to unexpected contenders.

But Pepe Unchained (PEPU), the meme-turned-blockchain phenomenon, continues to defy expectations.

Its presale has already passed the $8 million mark – and many early backers believe PEPU could be the next big thing in the Layer-2 space.

Presale Demand Soars as Pepe Unchained Passes $8M Milestone

Pepe Unchained is going viral in its presale.

It’s raked in $8.2 million so far, with PEPU tokens going for just over $0.009 each.

But that price won’t last long, since it’ll jump up again in one day when the next presale stage kicks off.

The team accepts purchases made using ETH, USDT, BNB, or even credit/debit cards for those ready to dive in.

And there’s no word yet on a hard cap or when the presale will end – which has everyone buzzing with theories.

Talk in the Pepe Unchained Telegram channel is that a DEX listing is in the works post-presale.

Uniswap seems the likeliest destination since PEPU is an ERC-20 token.

Pepe Unchained’s whitepaper outlines that 10% of the token supply will be used for liquidity, which should allow for smoother trading once PEPU goes live.

Another 20% is earmarked for marketing.

Then there’s a 10% chunk for “Project Finance” to ensure the entire Pepe Unchained project works as it should.

Clearly the developers have their sights set on the long term.

Pepe Unchained Reveals Ambitious Layer-2 Plans

Pepe Unchained isn’t just another random token.

It’s aiming to build a brand-new Layer-2 network.

And not just any Layer-2 – one that’s specifically designed for meme coins.
