The recent viral discussion about PEPE's surge has evolved into a collective celebration. Opening various communities, you'll see slogans like "Certified to work in 2026" and "Buy and then relax to get rich quickly," which makes many people envious, feeling they've missed out on a major opportunity. However, before jumping on the bandwagon and shouting slogans, it's wise to calm down and analyze with numbers and logic: Are these seemingly crazy goals truly worthwhile opportunities, or are they carefully crafted illusions of harvest?
Let's first lay out the current market situation. PEPE's current price is $0.00000390, and to reach $1, it needs to increase by 256,410 times. From another perspective, if you invest 1,000 yuan today, to achieve this goal, your account would need to grow to 256 million. At first glance, this seems more exciting than winning the lottery. But trading is never gambling; we need to clarify two fundamental questions: Is this goal logically feasible? And what signals does the current market environment send?
On the data front, PEPE's total supply is close to 420.7 billion tokens. If it truly reaches $1, the market cap would be $420.7 billion. Currently, the entire meme coin sector has a total market cap of around $60 billion, which means PEPE would need to dominate the entire sector with a market cap equivalent to seven times the entire market. Looking at the top of the entire crypto market—Bitcoin's market cap is around $1.2 trillion—if PEPE hits $1, its market cap would rank among the top three cryptocurrencies globally. This doesn't even account for potential market fluctuations in 2026; industry predictions suggest a new adjustment cycle could occur in the first half of next year. From this perspective, claims of "guaranteed profit" start to look quite suspicious.

256,410 times? Wake up, everyone. This is not a dream, it's an illusion.

256410x? Wake up everyone, this is just a dream.
---
A supply of 420.7 billion coins equals a market cap of 420.7 billion. Who can't do this math? Still in the top three? Laugh out loud.
---
Opening group chats full of "lying flat and getting rich," I just know they're trying to trap people.
---
1000 yuan turning into 256 million? Have you ever thought about the paradox here?
---
Wait, the meme coin track is worth 60 billion, and PEPE is swallowing seven tracks, how does that logic hold?
---
Does anyone really listen when someone says the adjustment cycle will be next year?
---
Bitcoin is only 1.2 trillion, PEPE in the top three? Uh... I'm a bit confused.
---
The phrase "guaranteed profit" should be immediately blocked, no exceptions.

It's always like this—crazy → harvest → huge losses, I'm really tired.

256,410 times? Why are so many people still dreaming? Do they really think PEPE is a money tree?

256,410 times... It sounds more outrageous than buying a lottery ticket, but I still can't help but want to go all in. I'm really sick.

Damn, 256,410 times? Why not just say you’re buying a lottery ticket, the odds are about the same haha
Everyone’s hyping it up, but who’s really done the math? The key issue is still the supply issue
Getting certified to work in 2026, I think it’s more like getting certified to go to jail...
PEPE surpassing BTC in the top three? Dream on, everyone
Another round of harvesting, just watch the show, don’t put your money in
A thousand bucks inflating to 256 million, just hearing it feels great, but actually doing it would make you cry
The entire market is only 60 billion, PEPE taking over seven? That math was taught by a PE teacher
If I keep hearing this, I might start to believe it, but I definitely won’t touch it
