On Friday, founder of Gokhshtein Media, active supporter of meme cryptocurrencies, David Gokhshtein, posted several tweets about the Pepe (PEPE) meme coin as it exploded in price before and after being listed by the leading Binance exchange together with FLOKI.
"People flooring their NFTs to get into PEPE"
Gokhshtein mentioned in a recent tweet that people are rushing to sell their NFTs cheaply and fast in order to buy the PEPE meme coin with that money. This provides a great chance for somebody to snatch "some really good quality blue chip NFTs," he added.
People are literally flooring their #NFTs to get into $PEPE.

This also presents a great opportunity for someone to snipe some really good quality blue chip #NFTs.
"PEPE can attract more people than Cardano and Polkadot"
Furthermore, Gokhshtein has repeated for PEPE what he had said about Dogecoin and Shiba Inu meme coins in the past — these coins, per the influencer, can bring a lot of new retail investors into the crypto space.
A lot of the crypto industry is now occupied by memes, he said, and many people have difficulty understanding the "meme economy." This is why PEPE can bring a lot more people over than Cardano and Polkadot. Their teams and leaders "can't explain the tech to the average normie," Gokhshtein stated.
