Based on the current price of 0.00000508, PEPE needs to surge 570 times to reach 0.0029. According to the most aggressive institutional forecast models, this path will not be completed by 2025, generally extending into the end of 2026 or even 2027. Moreover, three conditions must be met simultaneously: sustained Meme hype, Bitcoin maintaining an upward trend, and PEPE's continuous deflationary mechanism online.

I have pulled data from several mainstream forecasting institutions, along with their update dates for comparison:

【PricePrediction.net (August 2025 update)】
2026 range forecast: $0.000022 - $0.0036. Note that this is the first time the upper limit has been set above 0.0029 after multiple updates. Theoretically, as long as market sentiment explodes in a certain month of 2026, the target could be reached.

【Cryptopolitan (December 27, 2025)】
Provides a 2026 high of $0.0058—more than double 0.0029. But the average price for the year is only $0.0050. This suggests a possible trend: surge near 0.0029 in the first half of 2026, then fall back, with the high point likely in Q2-Q3 of 2026.

【CoinDataFlow (December 3, 2025)】
This model is relatively conservative, predicting a top of only $0.00044 in 2026. According to this path, reaching 0.0029 would have to wait until the next bull market window in 2029.

【A major exchange's comprehensive model (March 2025)】
Highest forecast for 2026 is $0.0041, with an annual average of $0.0034. This data indicates that reaching 0.0029 in the first half of the year is statistically feasible, but requires overall market cooperation.

Combining these four forecast paths:
- Most optimistic scenario: approaching 0.0029 by Q2 2026 (supported by the first two institutions)
- Most conservative scenario: only after 2029 (CoinDataFlow)
- Moderate judgment: from H2 2026 to H1 2027, corresponding to the next Bitcoin halving bubble cycle

So, if you ask how long it might take, the summary is: fastest 6-12 months, normal 1-2 years, slow beyond 3 years. Whether it can happen depends on whether the overall crypto market next year will give Meme tokens a super cycle space.

If you want to participate, it’s recommended to plan your take-profit and partial positions in advance, and set your retracement levels beforehand. Don’t let the 570x expectation turn into a 50% correction risk.
