Bitcoin Sprints Toward $80K as AlphaPepe Prepares for Potential Big Move

Bitcoin's price has surged roughly 23% over the past week, pushing toward the $78,000 region and forcing traders to reconsider how quickly the market could challenge $100,000. The next major battleground is around $80,000, where a clean breakout above that area could reopen the path toward higher psychological targets.

However, AlphaPepe (ALPE) https://www.alphapepe.io, which has raised over $2.46 million and crossed 11,000 holders with Stage 20 now live, is sitting at a completely different point in its cycle. The presale token has yet to experience its first major public-market pump, giving retail buyers an earlier entry than chasing BTC after a double-digit weekly rally.

The project's roadmap and exchange announcements are scheduled for August 26 and August 31, respectively, with the reveal of its fourth CEX on August 31 sparking market speculation around potential Tier-1 exchange exposure. AlphaPepe has also launched a limited Bonus Drop, offering an extra reward to participants who accumulate ALPE before later stages arrive.
