Pepe’s (PEPE) price hovers at around $0.0000073 at the time of writing on Wednesday after being rejected from the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) earlier this week. Lookonchain data shows that five wallets, possibly linked to a hacker, bought 611 billion PEPE tokens worth $4.28 million on Wednesday. Moreover, the frog-themed meme coin’s technical outlook suggests indecisiveness among traders as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) hovers around neutral levels.

Are hackers buying PEPE memecoin?

Lookonchain data shows that five wallets spent $4.28 million on Wednesday to buy 611 billion Pepe tokens. The data also mentions that these wallets could be linked to a hacker, as their previous transactions had withdrawn Ethereum (ETH) from Tornado Cash. 

Tornado Cash, an Ethereum-based tumbler that obscures crypto transaction trails using zero-knowledge proofs and generally compromised funds, is usually channeled through this platform (a decentralized mixer linked to money laundering).

Pepe Price Forecast: PEPE momentum indicator shows indecisiveness 

Pepe price broke above the descending trendline (drawn by joining multiple highs since early December) on April 9, corrected and found support on this trendline the next day, and rallied 11% until Saturday. However, it was rejected around the 50-day EMA level of $0.0000078 on Sunday and declined by 6% until Tuesday. At the time of writing on Wednesday, it hovers at around $0.0000070.

If PEPE continues its decline and closes below $0.0000064 on a daily basis, it could extend the decline to retest the March 11 low of $0.0000052.

The RSI on the daily chart is consolidating around the neutral line of 50, indicating indecisiveness among investors. Pepe’s price would fall sharply if the RSI moved below its neutral level.
