PEPE price has witnessed a meteoric rise over the weekend hitting an all-time high of $0.00002717 on Monday morning before taking a small breather to $0.00002569 at press time. 

While this price surge is good news to those who invested early in PEPE, those who missed the boat are wondering if there’s still an opportunity to catch the next big wave.

But there is no need to despair for those who missed to catch PEPE’s rise as it started. A new player, iDEGEN, which is currently in the midst of a dynamic presale model, could be the next big opportunity in the crypto market going by its innovative approach and AI integration.

PEPE has flipped Uniswap (UNI) and Litecoin (LTC)

PEPE’s surge has pushed its market cap above $10 billion, making it overtake giants like Uniswap (UNI) and Litecoin (LTC) to clinch position twenty by market cap.

Over the past month, the PEPE price has climbed by over 135% with a year-to-date surge of 1,900% year-to-date, fueled by whale activity and increased accessibility through platforms like MoonPay, which recently enabled PEPE purchases through Apple Pay and Venmo.

Ali Martinez, a renowned crypto analyst, on December 8 reported that Whales increased their PEPE holdings by $1.14 billion over the weekend. Historically, whales lay the foundation for bullish momentums by signalling an increased demand, which could be likely what caused PEPE to hit a new all-time high on Monday morning.

Notably, PEPE’s success underscores the growing influence of meme coins in the market, fueled by community engagement and innovative platforms like Pump.fun, allowing users to create free tokens.

However, with PEPE already enjoying a high market cap and wide visibility, the question arises: Is there still room for significant gains, or is it time to look for the next big opportunity?

iDEGEN is projected to be the next big opportunity

For those who missed out on PEPE and still looking for an opportunity for significant gains, iDEGEN could be that crypto project. 

Launched in November 2024, iDEGEN is quietly making waves with its unique blend of meme culture and cutting-edge AI technology. Unlike other cryptocurrencies, iDEGEN is designed to evolve based on community engagement on X, allowing its AI to learn and adapt from every interaction. 

This dynamic approach positions iDEGEN as more than just another memecoin—it’s a living, breathing project shaped by its community.

Currently, iDEGEN is in the midst of the presale of its native token, $IDGN, which offers a good opportunity for early investors to mirror PEPE’s gains. 

So far, the iDEGEN presale has already raised over $3.4 million, with more than 655 million $IDGN tokens sold. Its innovative dynamic pricing model adjusts token prices every five minutes based on purchase activity, creating an exciting environment for investors. 

If a single purchase is made within five minutes, the price remains unchanged for the next five minutes. However, if subsequent purchases are made, the price rises by 5% and if no purchase is made the price drops by 5%.

With the presale set to end on January 1, 2025, and a planned listing price 10% higher than the final presale price, iDEGEN offers early investors a unique opportunity to capitalize on its future growth.

PEPE vs. iDEGEN: Which is the better bet at the moment? 

Investing in PEPE now offers limited upside potential compared to its earlier days, as the token has already achieved significant market penetration and a high valuation. 

While PEPE’s price predictions indicate moderate growth—potentially rising by 280% rises from its current level to $0.0001 before Christmas —the gains may pale in comparison to those achievable through iDEGEN, which is still in its early stages.

While PEPE may have set the stage, iDEGEN could very well steal the spotlight, with the current AI boom positioning $IDGN as a token with tremendous growth potential, possibly achieving tenfold or even hundredfold returns once it goes public.

iDEGEN stands out as a promising candidate, combining the viral appeal of meme coins with cutting-edge AI technology and a community-first approach and the presale offers a unique opportunity to buy in at a ground level.
