Pepeto announced on July 4, 2026, that it had completed a security upgrade for its planned decentralized exchange while reporting that its ongoing token presale had raised more than $10.38 million. The project disclosed the updates in three GlobeNewswire press releases published on the same day, stating that the presale is nearing a sellout.
According to Pepeto, the security upgrade introduces additional protections for its planned exchange, which is being developed to support meme coin trading, cross-chain transactions, and staking within the project's ecosystem. The project added that proceeds from the presale will fund continued ecosystem development, including the exchange and related infrastructure.
While each of the three press releases centered on different cryptocurrency market topics, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and broader market developments, one highlighted the completed security upgrade, another reported that the presale had surpassed $10.38 million, and a third said the token sale is nearing a sellout.
Pepeto did not announce a launch date for the exchange or provide independent verification of the reported fundraising total.
