PEPE Battles Website Hack as Chart Signals Rare Rebound Against DOGE

PEPE faces a website hack even as its chart shows a rare rebound against Dogecoin. This mix of security risk and price recovery puts the memecoin under fresh scrutiny from traders. PEPE Website Redirects Users to Malicious Pages After Confirmed Breach The official PEPE website suffered a confirmed security breach that redirected visitors to malicious links, according to cybersecurity firm Blockaid. The company said attackers injected harmful code into the site’s front end, causing users to land on phishing pages designed to drain digital wallets. The firm identified the code as part of the Inferno Drainer toolkit, which has appeared in several recent phishing incidents across the sector. The issue surfaced after exchanges and analytics platforms warned users to avoid the site until the problem is resolved. Several industry monitors reported identical redirect behavior, confirming that the website no longer sends visitors to its legitimate destination. The alerts spread quickly as communities flagged unusual activity and urged caution while the team investigates. The project has not yet provided a detailed explanation of the breach. However, analysts note that the incident highlights recurring vulnerabilities in web-front designs used by token projects. The attack remains active at the time of writing, prompting continued warnings for users to stay off the website until developers secure the domain and restore normal access. PEPE Posts Rare Second Green Week Against DOGE on Weekly Chart PEPE is on track for a second straight green weekly candle versus Dogecoin, marking its first two-week rebound since June, according to the PEPE/DOGE pair on TradingView. The move comes after the pair slid back to a long-term support zone near the bottom of its rising channel, where buyers have stepped in before. PEPEUSD DOGEUSD weekly chart. Source: TradingView / X The chart shows PEPE still trading far below the mid-range and prior peak levels set during its early 2024 rally. However, the current bounce lifts price off the recent lows and breaks the short downtrend line that guided the latest selloff. As a result, momentum shifts slightly toward the upside while PEPE attempts to stabilize its performance relative to DOGE . If the pair can hold this recovery and push toward the horizontal resistance area highlighted on the chart, traders may treat it as an early sign that PEPE is trying to build a larger relief phase against Dogecoin. If it fails and slips back under support instead, the broader downtrend would remain intact and signal that the recent green candles were only a brief pause in the decline.
