The cryptocurrency market remained resilient on Sunday despite a modest pullback in overall market capitalization.
The global crypto market cap stood at $2.98 trillion, down 0.73% over the past 24 hours.
Bitcoin held steady above the $95,000 mark, while Ethereum hovered above $1,800.
In this market, investors are increasingly focused on two projects with the potential for a sharp move.
XRP is flashing bullish signals amid renewed whale accumulation and growing optimism over a potential spot ETF approval.
Meanwhile, meme coin Bitcoin Pepe continues to garner investor attention.
XRP price can rally
Ripple’s XRP is showing signs of renewed strength as large holders ramp up accumulation ahead of key catalysts.
On-chain data from Santiment indicates that wallets holding between 10 million and 100 million XRP added over 200 million tokens last week.
The accumulation, interpreted by analysts as institutional positioning, comes amid heightened expectations of an XRP spot ETF approval.
Polymarket odds for such an approval have surged to 80%, while the anticipated launch of ProShares’ XRP ETF on May 14 is fueling bullish sentiment.
Currently trading around $2.20, XRP has bounced back from a brief dip to $2.15 on April 30, which triggered nearly $13.9 million in long liquidations.
Despite that volatility, analysts such as Javon Marks remain optimistic. “With lower timeframes confirming bull signals, another upside move can be in the works for XRP,” he said.
Something was indeed brewing just as synchronicities hinted at and it was a major, >530% upside move from the $0.53s to $3.30+! With lower timeframes confirming Bull Signals, another upside move can be in the works for $XRP…
The recent uptick in whale accumulation and ETF-linked optimism could serve as key drivers for XRP as it eyes a potential reclaim of the $3 mark.
Why Bitcoin Pepe is grabbing eyeballs
Bitcoin Pepe is positioning itself as the first project to unite two of crypto’s most powerful market forces—Bitcoin’s credibility and meme coin virality. As the team puts it:
“The opportunity isn’t subtle. Meme coins hit $100B without Bitcoin. Bitcoin sits at $2T without memes. We’re the first to merge them.”
Momentum behind the project is intensifying.
The Bitcoin Pepe presale has raised more than $7.6 million, with demand continuing to build ahead of the transition to stage 10, which begins once contributions cross $7.78 million.
The project introduces the PEP-20 token standard, which enables deployment of meme coins on the Bitcoin blockchain—a first-of-its-kind infrastructure innovation.
Presale stages feature roughly 5% price increases per round. BPEP has already climbed from $0.021 in its opening round to $0.031 in stage 9—a gain of over 40% for early participants.
If the current trajectory holds, the token is expected to reach $0.0864 by the final stage, offering early backers potential triple-digit returns.
Bitcoin Pepe isn’t shy about its mission:
“We’re building the infrastructure that makes number go up forever, combining Bitcoin’s immortality with the pure, unfiltered power of memes.”
With a presale structure that mirrors rising interest and a clear effort to build foundational tools for meme-based speculation, Bitcoin Pepe is shaping up to be more than just another viral play—it’s a platform built to scale with the next wave of crypto mania.
