TL:DR;
PEPE vs SHIB
CryptoPotatoreportedyesterday PEPE’s impressive run. After a few weeks of sideways trading and even retracements from itsNovember 13 peak, the meme coin went on an impressive run that resulted in tapping a new high of over $0.000026.
Although it has lost some traction since then, PEPE is still well above $0.000025, and its market cap is just shy of $11 billion. This is still far from SHIB’s $19 billion, but PEPE has continuously outperformed in the past month with gains of 135% compared to Shiba Inu’s more modest 70%.
This has led the community to speculate on whether it is a question of when and not if PEPE will surpass SHIB and become the second-largest meme coin by market cap.

What Does ChatGPT Say?
While the community is highly bullish now for PEPE, perhaps driven by the hype from the latest ATH, we decided to ask the popular AI chatbot about its opinion on the matter. It admitted that PEPE has “demonstrated significant growth potential in 2024,” adding that it has “frequently outperformed Shiba Inu (SHIB) in various timeframes.”
It noted that PEPE has attracted substantial whale activity and high trading volumes, but Shiba Inu’s ecosystem, including the Layer-2 network, “provides it with more tangible utility than PEPE, which primarily relies on community momentum and market hype.”
Consequently, ChatGPT concluded that such a flippening is ‘unlikely,’ at least in this timeframe.
“While analysts expect strong gains for PEPE, Shiba Inu’s entrenched position as a larger and more established meme coin makes a complete flip unlikely in the short term unless a significant shift occurs in their respective ecosystems.”
