Meme edition0% premineMined, not minted

Pepecoin (PEP). The frog with its own blockchain.

Not Pepe. Not a token on Ethereum. PEP is a proof-of-work coin with its own chain, mined together with Litecoin and Dogecoin. The memes are for fun. The numbers come with receipts.

Every number here has a source. I checked, fren.

Three frogs, one name

Wait. Which frog?

Three different assets go by some version of “Pepecoin”. Only one has its own blockchain. Kraken lists all three, so check the ticker.

Mined, not minted

One machine. Three coins.

Litecoin, Dogecoin and Pepecoin can be mined together on the same Scrypt work, through merged mining (AuxPoW). Same machine, same electricity, three payouts.

  • A Scrypt ASIC on a pool that merge-mines PEP earns all three
  • No validators, no staking, no contract owner
  • Nobody can freeze an address at the chain level

  2. Withdraw to your own walletSend your PEP to an address that starts with P. Not your keys, not your frog.
  3. Get a Tangem, if you likeA hardware card that keeps PEP offline. The official Pepecoin Shop sells a co-branded one.

Meme coin. Serious facts.

The frog’s four rules

  1. Every number links to its source.If it can’t be checked, it isn’t here.
  2. No price predictions.“×100” is arithmetic, not a promise. The frog does not know wen moon.
  3. We never hold your coins.This site never asks for a seed phrase or a password. Nobody legit ever will.
  4. Mistakes get fixed in public.Spot one, tell us, and the correction stays on record.
