The cryptocurrency markets are heating up, with the overall market cap surging 3% in the past day. Solana (SOL) is among the top performers, already up 14% this week, and analysis suggests that the $180 barrier is the next target. However, that’s not the only asset making headlines today. Meme coin fans are buzzing as Little Pepe ($LILPEPE), the first Layer 2 chain built exclusively for memes, has just raised $200,000 in presale contributions within its first 24 hours.
Solana Eyes $180 as Bulls Regain Momentum
Solana continues to impress with its resilient price action. SOL trades at $168, up more than 7% this week due to market optimism, higher liquidity, and prospects for broader adoption. The recent surge in daily trading volume to $3.1 billion has increased excitement in the Solana ecosystem. The rising SOL OI-weighted financing rate is good news for futures traders. Meanwhile, liquidation volumes have dipped, indicating reduced volatility and room for upside momentum. Analysts believe that if SOL maintains its current support level near $160, the path to $180 is well within reach.

From a technical standpoint, Solana is currently trading within an expanding channel pattern and has bounced off the lower trendline. MACD readings are leaning toward bullish convergence, while Bollinger Bands hint at increased volatility to the upside. If buying pressure continues, SOL could target $180–$200 before the end of the week.
Little Pepe ($LILPEPE) Presale Blasts Past $200K in 24 Hours
The frog is back, and he’s bigger than ever. Little Pepe ($LILPEPE) stormed onto the scene with a presale that raised $200,000 on Day 1, signaling massive interest from meme coin investors and degens hunting the next 100x alt. The token launched its Pregnancy Phase on June 10 and is selling at a starting price of $0.0015, with the first stage capped at 500 million tokens. Once filled, the price will jump to $0.0025 in Stage 2.
This kind of explosive start isn’t just hype.
The project is backed by strong fundamentals and a mission that extends beyond the realm of memes. "Little Pepe isn’t just another meme coin—it’s a fully built Layer 2 chain where memes are the main event," said one Telegram community moderator. The presale offers early adopters a rare opportunity to enter a utility-driven meme coin before mainstream attention catches on. With a sniper-bot-proof architecture, ultra-fast finality, and zero tax on trades, $LILPEPE is already winning favor with crypto-native investors tired of gas burns and sketchy launches. It’s no surprise the project blew past six figures on its first day.
The Meme Chain of the Future: Built Different with Layer 2 Power
"This isn’t just a token—it’s a Layer 2 designed for memes, by memes, and with memes," one early backer said on X. Little Pepe is Ethereum-based but completely optimized for low-cost, high-speed activity. Transactions are near-instant, fees are almost nonexistent, and—critically—it’s immune to sniper bots that plague early token launches. The chain has its native meme Launchpad, Pepe’s Pump Pad. This incubator allows creators to deploy rug-proof meme tokens in minutes. Every new launch includes auto-locked liquidity, making it safer than the average meme coin fair launch. Whether you’re launching a frog, dog, or goblin token, Little Pepe’s tech stack is the only Layer 2 tailored for meme coin developers.
The team has also confirmed that $LILPEPE will debut on two top-tier centralized exchanges post-presale, with plans to list on the world's largest exchange shortly after. While names remain confidential, the team claims these deals are already structured and secured.
Backed by Meme OGs: Roadmap, Vision, and Zero-Tax Culture
Little Pepe isn’t flying solo. The project is backed by a collective of anonymous meme coin veterans: figures responsible for helping build some of the most explosive tokens in recent years. This network brings real marketing firepower, liquidity expertise, and launchpad savvy to $LILPEPE.
The roadmap is clear:
- Pregnancy Phase: Presale launch, big-name meme collaborations, and viral community growth.
- Birth Phase: Launch on Uniswap and CEXs, with a $1B market cap target in view.
- Growth Phase: Full Layer 2 chain rollout, Launchpad activation, and a Top 100 CMC push.
Tokenomics are tailored for long-term participation, with allocations of 26.5% for the presale, 30% for chain reserves, 13.5% for staking, 10% each for liquidity and marketing, and 10% for DEX listings, along with a 0% tax. No gimmicks. Just memes, speed, and scale.
Is $LILPEPE the Next 100x? Here's How to Get In
With utility, narrative, and day-one momentum, Little Pepe checks every box for a potential 100x breakout. The market sees something special in this frog: nostalgia and infrastructure. It’s what DOGE never had. It’s what SHIB tried to build. And it’s happening now.

Final Thoughts: While Solana Climbs, the Frog Just Leaped
Solana may be pushing toward $180, but this week's real action is happening in the swamps of meme land. Little Pepe isn’t just another token—it’s a whole Layer 2 universe built for meme creators, traders, and degens looking for something fresh, fast, and fair.
