Similarly, Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ: HOOD) revealed that its customers can now trade Pepe alongside other crypto assets. The announcement sparked a major FOMO for Pepe, especially involving whale traders seeking to monetize the volatility.
Earlier today, a major crypto whale accumulated 751 billion worth of Pepe coins, worth nearly $18 million from different exchanges.
