Grauber Contesoto, also recognized as the ‘Doge Coin Millionaire‘, recently shared that he has transitioned to becoming a PEPE millionaire, with his holdings now surpassing $1.11 million.
Contesoto gained fame in the 2021 crypto bull market when his investment in DOGE reached seven figures, but he failed to take profits, causing him to lose that status during the bear market.

Formerly known as a Doge Coin Millionaire, Contesoto now holds PEPE across six distinct wallets, with his total amount exceeding $1 million. Additionally, he continues to retain five million DOGE coins, currently valued at $990,000.
Grauber made the decision to convert his Ethereum holdings to PEPE in February of this year after a prolonged decline of Ethereum’s value, which dropped from $3,800 to $1,555. He remarked on his choice to invest heavily in PEPE:
“I believe Pepe is one of the few memes that can compare to Doge in terms of recognition.”In contrast to DOGE, which he describes as more playful, he finds that PEPE embodies a deeper and darker aspect of internet culture. Contesoto admits that he failed to secure adequate profits in the previous cycle, stating that while buying is easy, selling is the real challenge. He is planning to offload at least half of his DOGE holdings by the end of 2025.
As a newly minted PEPE millionaire, he is diversifying his investment strategy by putting $100,000 into other prominent meme coins, including BRETT ($BRETT) and Floki ($FLOKI), seeking to amplify his success across multiple tokens.
The Memecoin Landscape
Despite his previous missteps, Contesoto has started to see gains from PEPE, DOGE and other coins, indicating a fresh approach during this bullish phase.
Currently, PEPE, DOGE, BRETT, and FLOKI are experiencing positive movements of 4.6%, 2.1%, 1.9%, and 6% respectively. Many anticipate that the current bull market may help DOGE achieve its much-discussed target of reaching $1, significantly up from its present value of $0.2.
