The meme coin market saw a major shake-up in the last 24 hours as a huge transfer of Pepe Coin (PEPE) took place. As on-chain data from Lookonchain revealed, a high-profile investor sold a whopping 500 billion PEPE, valued at around $4 million, directly to Kraken, a top U.S.-based crypto exchange.

The transfer of half a trillion frog-themed meme coins was completed in just 15 minutes. Before this sudden move, the same whale had already built up a big position of 750.38 billion PEPE, worth around $8.34 million, through purchases on Kraken.

The latest divestment, however, leaves the holder with a much smaller position of 250.33 billion PEPE, currently valued at $2.02 million. As things stand, this big sell-off cost the whale over $2.3 million.

Thus, the price of PEPE first soared by 6%, where it met a resistance at around $0.0000085. After that, meme coin quotes dipped to $0.0000077, where they found support.
