AlphaPepe raises $2.61 million in presale and announces AI DEX update

AlphaPepe has raised $2.61 million through its presale, surpassing 11,500 holders despite recent market volatility. The project is currently in Stage 20, which is nearing a sellout, with a planned DEX launch and presale closure scheduled for Q1 2027. The planned listing price is set to start from $0.08.

As part of its technical roadmap, AlphaPepe announced an update for AlphaSwap, its AI-powered decentralized exchange (DEX). The update focuses on the development of a proprietary router designed to execute trades faster than existing platforms like Uniswap and PancakeSwap. The AlphaSwap router aims to integrate AI features, including pre-trade checks, risk signals, and trend signals, to assist traders in decision-making.

Additionally, AlphaPepe has established its fourth centralized exchange partnership with Latoken Exchange.
