PepeX is entering the meme coin space with a different strategy. The AI-powered platform launches its 30-stage PEPX token presale on March 24, 2025. At each stage, the token price will rise by around 5%, allowing early-stage participants to secure potential returns of over 300% before the token hits the open market. In total, 45% of the 5 billion PEPX supply will be sold during the presale. The remaining tokens are allocated across ecosystem development, liquidity provision, and platform operations. Unlike other meme coin platforms, PepeX caps token creator holdings at just 5% in an attempt to eliminate insider front-running and the use of communities as exit liquidity. AI handles everything PepeX aims to remove the barriers typically associated with memecoin launches by replacing developer involvement with AI. From smart contract generation to token ticker selection and branding, the platform handles everything automatically. Built-in bots manage Telegram and X (formerly Twitter) communities, while marketing campaigns are instantly deployed to drive engagement. With its anti-sniping protections, automatic liquidity locks, and fully transparent bubble maps, the platform focuses on creating what it calls a truly “fair launch” system. These features may resonate strongly with investors, especially following disappointing outcomes on Pump.fun in recent months. Pump.fun’s revenue tanks Pump.fun’s revenue has plummeted to a four-month low as its token graduation rate continues to decline. DefiLlama data shows that the platform’s protocol fee revenue stood at $791,500 on March 17, marking a 94% drop from its January 25 peak of $15.38 million. This is the lowest single-day revenue recorded since November. The slowdown in Pump.fun’s meme coin activity is further highlighted by the sharp decline in its graduation rate—the percentage of tokens successfully migrating to Solana decentralized exchanges after meeting liquidity and trading criteria. According to Dune Analytics, this rate currently sits at 0.98%, down from 1.62% on January 20, and has remained below 1% since February 17. The decline in both revenue and token graduations signals waning interest in Solana-based meme coins. Matrixport reports that the bursting of the meme coin bubble, which peaked in January, has contributed to a $1 trillion drop in the total crypto market cap—from $3.6 trillion to around $2.6 trillion. The downturn follows a series of high-profile pump-and-dump incidents, including the LIBRA meme coin controversy involving Argentina’s president and the volatility surrounding Trump-linked tokens TRUMP and MELANIA. PepeX looks set to grow As PepeX gears up for launch, interest in trustworthy meme coins continues to grow, fuelled by viral trends and fast-paced community engagement. While the space has seen explosive potential, participation has often been limited by technical complexity and insider-driven launches that disadvantage everyday traders. This environment has created a clear demand for platforms that simplify token creation while enforcing fairness and transparency. With built-in anti-sniping protections, failure accountability, AI-generated marketing support, and liquidity locks, PepeX is positioning itself as a user-first platform designed to support broader, safer, and more sustainable retail participation in the meme coin market. After the presale, PepeX is expected to secure listings on major exchanges ahead of the launch of its AI-powered launchpad in the third quarter. Positioning itself as a next-generation meme coin platform, PepeX is banking on its AI-driven ecosystem to differentiate itself from established players and drive rapid adoption.
