AlphaPepe said in an X post on August 27 that its ALPE presale is scheduled to close in Q1 2027, with the token also set to launch on PancakeSwap and the project’s AlphaSwap platform at what the team called a minimum launch price of $0.08.
The team added that the presale could end earlier if its remaining allocation sells out. AlphaPepe said this week that Stage 20 was live at $0.02817 per ALPE, with $2.5 million raised and more than 11,100 holders. At that price, the stated $0.08 launch level would be 184% higher than the current presale price.
AlphaPepe Presale Could Last Nearly 21 Months
The Q1 2027 timeline would make AlphaPepe an unusually long-running crypto presale.
The sale dates back to early July 2025. AlphaPepe said in a July 7, 2025 announcement that it had raised more than $33,000 during its first 24 hours. If the presale remains open until sometime between January and March 2027, its total duration would reach between 18 and 21 months.
ALPE Price Has Risen 463% Since the Presale Began
AlphaPepe’s original presale price was $0.005. The Stage 20 price of $0.02817 means the token’s fixed presale price has increased 463% from its initial level.
The project has used recurring price increases throughout the sale, adjusting pricing on 72-hour cycles alongside stage progression based on the amount of capital raised.
A launch at the newly stated $0.08 minimum would put ALPE at 2.84 times its current presale price and 16 times its original $0.005 price.
Before the planned Q1 launch, AlphaPepe has another announcement scheduled for August 31, when the team says it will reveal its fourth centralized exchange partnership.
