One savvy cryptocurrency investor recently gained impressive gains after buying into the popular meme-inspired token, Pepe ($PEPE), to the tune of nearly 38,675% profit! Lookonchain, a blockchain analysis firm, reported that the trader purchased four trillion units of Pepe ($PEPE) for 2.1 Ethereum (ETH), which was equivalent to $4,410 at the time of the purchase.

The trader subsequently sold off a portion of their Pepe ($PEPE) token holdings, amassing an enormous amount of paper and realized profits of nearly $1.71 million! Of course, it didn't stop there - this investor also traded in two other lesser-known meme coins for a triple-digit profit.

Pepe ($PEPE) was introduced to the cryptocurrency market earlier this year in April and quickly gained recognition, features on multiple centralized exchanges, and landed in the top 100 most valuable digital assets around. This rise in popularity was met with some noted concerns such as the fact that the contract owner had the ability to modify transaction taxes or blacklist certain functions.

Despite this, this one set of savvy investor got in ($PEPE) at the right time and realized immense gains, as well as another anonymous investor who turned a meager 0.125 ETH into an outstanding $1.14 million with their timing too.

Meme coins have always been an interesting segment in the world of cryptocurrency and digital finance. The phenomenon began with the well-known Dogecoin $DOGE and picked up with the launch of Shiba Inu ($SHIB), Fabregas ($FAB), Wojak ($WOJAK) and ArbDoge.

These cryptocurrencies have all offered investors phenomenal opportunities and the temptation of potentially lucrative returns, as is seen through the instance of the Pepe ($PEPE) token mentioned before. However, the higher risk entails volatility which can result in losses and investors, especially the novice ones, need to be extremely cautious.
