Pepe (PEPE)

The internet\

What is Pepe?

PEPE is a meme token inspired by the Pepe the Frog internet meme, launched in April 2023. It quickly became one of the largest meme coins by market cap, driven by viral social media engagement and a community that embraces internet culture. PEPE has no utility beyond being a cultural token — and its community considers that the point.

The token rocketed to a multi-billion dollar market cap within weeks of launch, making it one of the fastest-growing tokens in crypto history. It demonstrated that meme tokens remain a significant force in crypto markets, driven by community sentiment and cultural momentum rather than technical innovation.

PEPE is an ERC-20 token on Ethereum with no team allocation, no presale, and a redistributive tax that was later removed. Its simplicity — a meme token with no pretensions — is what attracted its following.

How Pepe Works

PEPE is a straightforward ERC-20 token on Ethereum. There is no complex mechanism or novel technology — it is a token that derives its value from community adoption and cultural relevance. The original supply was 420.69 trillion tokens (the numbers themselves a meme reference). A portion of the supply was burned at launch. Trading PEPE works like trading any other ERC-20 token on decentralized or centralized exchanges.

Team & Development

PEPE was launched by an anonymous team in April 2023. There is no known company or foundation behind the project. The token contract was deployed on Ethereum and the project spread virally through social media. The anonymity and simplicity are part of its appeal — there are no promises of roadmaps or utility, just a meme.
