Little Pepe (LILPEPE), an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible Layer 2 meme token, has completed the third stage of its presale, raising over $2.33 million at a price of $0.0012 per token. The project has now entered Stage 4 of its presale, with the token price set to increase to $0.0014 in the upcoming Stage 5.
Unlike typical meme coins, Little Pepe aims to combine meme culture with functional on-chain utility. Built on a Layer 2 blockchain emphasizing fast transactions and low fees, it offers advantages such as microtransactions, NFT trading, gaming rewards, and staking. This infrastructure differentiates it from other meme cryptocurrencies that rely solely on speculation.
The presale progress reflects strong investor interest, with Stage 1 priced at $0.001 raising $500,000, Stage 2 at $0.0011 raising $1.325 million, and Stage 3 raising over $2.3 million. To date, the project has raised approximately $2.54 million. Alongside the presale, Little Pepe has launched a $777,000 giveaway campaign rewarding the top 10 participants with $77,000 worth of LILPEPE tokens each, incentivizing community engagement.
Little Pepe’s presale mechanics and tokenomics include no buy or sell tax and a well-allocated token distribution to presale participants, liquidity, and reserves. The developers aim to list the token on Uniswap and major centralized exchanges after the presale, with plans to launch a meme coin creation platform on its Layer 2 chain, further expanding its ecosystem.
The token has generated attention as a fresh contender in the meme coin sector, potentially challenging long-standing players like Dogecoin (DOGE). Its technical advantages—such as ultra-low fees and fast confirmations—combined with an active and engaged community, position it as a project moving beyond mere hype toward sustainable utility.
