Ethereum Gains as Bitcoin Dips; Whales Load Up on Pepe & Remittix

Bitcoins taking a breather, but elsewhere, things are heating up. Ethereum is ripping higher after a wave of upgrades and ETF inflows.

Meme-fuelled PEPE flashes bullish signals, and fresh whale activity is back in play. Meanwhile, a new player, Remittix, is building a crypto-to-fiat off-ramp designed for mass adoption. Here‘s what’s moving, and why it matters.

Ethereum continues its breakout

Ethereum has recently continued to move from strength to strength. After starting in May at nearly $1,750, Ethereums price has climbed over 48% in the last 30 days.

It has hit highs of $2,788 and held strong above $2,600, at $2,712 on May 29th. It‘s outperforming BTC over the last week, up 2.3% vs Bitcoin’s -2%.

Big upgrades are driving the run. The Pectra update dropped on May 7, doubling layer-2 capacity and letting wallets pay gas without smart contracts. Staking limits jumped too—from 32 ETH to 2,048—and made large-scale staking much easier.

Spot ETH ETFs show real momentum behind the price. It brought in $287 million between May 19 and 27, according to Finance Magnates. Whales are stacking again, holding more ETH than ever since early 2023.

Finance Magnates analysts are eyeing a break past $2,800. From there, $3,000 opens up. Some even see Ethereums price finishing the year between $4,000 and $5,900. That could lift Ethereum-based tokens like Pepe and Remittix much higher.

Pepe Coin technical patterns point to a rally ahead

PEPE surged from its April low to reach $0.00001596 before stabilizing around $0.0000143 on May 29th. Its market cap now hovers near $6 billion. Its the second-largest Ethereum-based meme coin, and one of the most actively traded.

On May 27 alone, whales shuffled over 11.7 trillion PEPE. This includes a $27.8 million transfer from Bybit to a private wallet. Futures open interest has hit $600 million, and traders are watching a key resistance level at $0.0000148.

If that breaks, a prospective cup-and-handle and “golden cross” could push prices toward $0.0000238, as per BraveNewCoin. While PEPE whale holdings have dipped since February, these new moves suggest theyre positioning for the next big push.

Remittix is the bridge between crypto and banks

Remittix is one of the most practical crypto projects in the game right now. It allows users to convert over 100 cryptocurrencies into fiat currency effortlessly.

The funds can be sent to bank accounts worldwide instantly. Transactions are processed with a flat fee and without unnecessary complications. It works with local banking rails, with Remittixs blockchain tech doing the heavy lifting in the background.

For freelancers, startups, and migrants, theres a compelling use case. However, businesses are in the picture too: the Remittix Pay API lets them accept crypto and settle directly in fiat.

Merchant accounts provide control over cashing out with flexibility in timing and methods. They support 50+ trading pairs and 30+ fiat currencies.

Behind the scenes, the teams been busy. Ethereum-based smart contracts are live, legal frameworks are locked in, and wallet development is underway.

The first wallet preview just dropped, and its sleek, non-custodial, and built for real-world use. Beta testing begins in Q3 2025, with full app launches to follow.

Its moving fast, with nearly 20,000 investors and several whales buying into the RTX token presale. They have invested over $15.4 million, gaining an early foothold in the market. This could become the strongest bridge between crypto and fiat yet.

Keep an eye on ETH, PEPE, and RTX

While Bitcoin dips, Ethereum is gaining. ETH tokens like Pepe and Remittix are some of the best opportunities.

They are both ready to break out in the coming weeks and months. Stay tuned to the Remittix presale—tokens are flying off the shelves and quickly rising with each stage that sells out.
