PEP is not PEPE
Pepecoin (PEP) runs on its own blockchain and is merge-mined with Litecoin and Dogecoin. It is separate from Pepe (PEPE), the Ethereum token from 2023, and PepeCoin (PEPECOIN), the project from 2016 that moved to Ethereum in 2023.

Mine PEP in four steps
- Step 1
Get a Scrypt ASIC
The same machines that mine Litecoin and Dogecoin, such as the Antminer L9.
- Step 2
Join a pool that merge-mines PEP
ViaBTC, F2Pool, Binance Pool and others pay PEP on top of LTC and DOGE.
- Step 3
Add a PEP payout address
An address that starts with P. An Ethereum 0x address will not work.
- Step 4
Point the miner at the pool
Use the pool's Scrypt address. PEP arrives with your LTC and DOGE.
