Pepe Price Prediction: Just Like DOGE, PEPE Buyers Are Absent – Is Layer Brett’s Testnet A Game Changer?

PEPE has been showing signs of weakness lately, and this slowdown is making subsequent Pepe price predictions more uncertain. Moreover, traders who once backed fellow meme coin DOGE are staying on the sidelines.

With all this happening, a new Ethereum Layer 2 project, Layer Brett, is stealing the spotlight with its upcoming Testnet. Could this be the moment to look beyond Pepe coin and meme token DOGE? Let’s dive in.

PEPE price prediction: bearish trend signals a 12% decline

PEPE has, in the past month, slid about 30% with PEPE coin trading at $0.0000047 at the time of writing. Experts say buyers are stepping back because of large token transfers, repeated rejections at resistance, and weakening on-chain demand.

Consequently, this has put a gloomy short-term Pepe price prediction on the table. Further, Changelly analytics forecast a further drop in PEPE’s price to $0.0000042 by the end of Q4 2025, registering a 12% decline on its current price.

With Pepe coin losing its steam as one of the most popular meme coins, some investors are eyeing alternatives like Layer Brett. With the project’s Layer-2 speed low-fee promise, $LBRETT could be a more attractive play right now.

DOGE drops 16% as whale selling rises

In the last month, DOGE has dropped about 16%, losing momentum just like fellow meme token PEPE. At the time of press, Dogecoin was valued at $0.16, with crypto insiders citing that the main reasons for declining DOGE buyers are large holders selling off and a fading meme coin hype.

Because of this, DOGE could slide further but a recent forecast from CoinCheckup suggests a slight push to the upside to $0.18 by the end of 2025, which would mark a 12% rise.

Although Dogecoin is exhibiting a better outlook compared to the Pepe price prediction, LBRETT appears to have an upper hand.  This new meme token rewards its community for creating and sharing memes, something that most users will find easy to do.

Layer Brett’s testnet puts it ahead of PEPE and DOGE

Layer Brett has drawn attention among newer market participants due to its emphasis on providing an L2 environment with lower fees and faster settlement –  offering more than the usual hype that surrounds PEPE,  and the slow recovery attempts seen in DOGE.

While  Pepe coin and Dogecoin rely heavily on trends and community buzz, this Ethereum Layer 2 project positions itself as more utility-focused than traditional meme tokens by offering staking and ecosystem features.  What makes LBRETT even more appealing is its upcoming Testnet – a key development is the upcoming testnet, which will allow users to explore core functions without risk prior to the mainnet release

It will let users try out the platform before the full launch, giving them a chance to explore its features without risk. This is a great way to get comfortable with super-fast, low-fee transactions and see how the ecosystem works in real time. Early testing will provide additional community feedback on performance, usability, and potential improvements.

Other standout advantages include:

  • Real utility beyond memes, with staking and built-in ecosystem features
  • Staking rewards that get to almost 600%, which neither PEPE nor DOGE provides. The distribution of LBRETT token rewards will occur at a rate of 385.8 LBRETT tokens per ETH block.
    these rewards will be disbursed over 2 years. 
  • No KYC, making it simple and open to everyone

From its initial $0.004 price, the LBRETT price has climbed 45% to $0.0058 through its presale stages. This early movement has led some observers to speculate about its potential to develop alongside major meme-coin names such as PEPE and DOGE

Tokenized Assets Shift From Wrappers to Building Blocks in DeFi

Tokenized Assets Shift From Wrappers to Building Blocks in DeFi

The post Tokenized Assets Shift From Wrappers to Building Blocks in DeFi appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. RWAs are rapidly moving on-chain, unlocking new opportunities for investors and DeFi protocols, according to a new report from Dune and RWAxyz. Tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) are moving beyond digital versions of traditional securities to become key building blocks of decentralized finance (DeFi), according to the 2025 RWA Report from Dune and RWAxyz. The report notes that Treasuries, bonds, credit, and equities are now being used in DeFi as collateral, trading instruments, and yield products. This marks tokenization’s “real breakthrough” – composability, or the ability to combine and reuse assets across different protocols. Projects are already showing how this works in practice. Asset manager Maple Finance’s syrupUSDC, for example, has grown to $2.5 billion, with more than 30% placed in DeFi apps like Spark ($570 million). Centrifuge’s new deJAAA token, a wrapper for Janus Henderson’s AAA CLO fund, is already trading on Aerodrome, Coinbase and other exchanges, with Stellar planned next. Meanwhile, Aave’s Horizon RWA Market now lets institutional users post tokenized Treasuries and CLOs as collateral. This trend underscores a bigger shift: RWAs are no longer just copies of traditional assets; instead, they are becoming core parts of on-chain finance, powering lending, liquidity, and yield, and helping to close the gap between traditional finance (TradFi) and DeFi. “RWAs have crossed the chasm from experimentation to execution,” Sid Powell, CEO of Maple Finance, says in the report. “Our growth to $3.5B AUM reflects a broader shift: traditional financial services are adopting crypto assets while institutions seek exposure to on-chain markets.” Investor demand for higher returns and more diversified options is mainly driving this growth. Tokenized Treasuries proved there is strong demand, with $7.3 billion issued by September 2025 – up 85% year-to-date. The growth was led by BlackRock, WisdomTree, Ondo, and Centrifuge’s JTRSY (Janus Henderson Anemoy Treasury Fund). Spark’s $1…
