Coins vs Tokens
There are two basic types of cryptocurrencies, coins and tokens. Tokens exist as smart contracts on a parent network like Ethereum or Solana. Coins, on the other hand, have their own blockchain. Some blockchains use Proof-of-Work (e.g. Bitcoin) while others use Proof-of-Stake (e.g. Ethereum). Ethereum is a coin, Tether is a token (created via a smart contract) on Ethereum.
Pepecoin is a coin with its own blockchain. It uses Proof-of-Work just like Bitcoin. You can think of Pepecoin as “Bitcoin with a frog logo”.
Why was Pepecoin created?
There are many Pepe cryptocurrencies. Nearly all of them are tokens. While some of these tokens have seen massive success, to make a truly great cryptocurrency, having your own blockchain is a must. Quite simply, Pepecoin was created because we have a much bigger vision for a Pepe cryptocurrency. A vision that can only be achieved by having Pepe be on his own blockchain.
We believe cryptocurrencies should be more than a price on a chart. Pepecoin transaction fees are extremely low, often fractions of a penny. This makes it the best choice for sending money to friends and family, donating to your favorite charity, or buying a cup of coffee.
Twitch streamers, YouTubers, influencers, and anyone with a social media following can accept Pepecoin donations from anyone all over the world by simply sharing their address with their followers.
We think that’s pretty cool.
Do I have to trust the devs?
No! Pepecoin is trustless. No one owns or controls Pepecoin. It is completely decentralized just like Bitcoin.
Is Pepecoin Core safe to use?
Yes!
All Pepecoin Core releases are cryptographically proven to be built from source. Prior to each release, the Pepecoin Core binaries are deterministically built by multiple developers from the community. The binaries are then “fingerprinted” using a hashing function. The fingerprints from each developer are then compared to make sure they match. If a developer makes a change to the code, even a single character, their fingerprint will not match those of the other developers. Only after all developers’ fingerprints match, are the binaries for Pepecoin Core released.
This process ensures no tampering has taken place and that users are safe to download and install the next release.

What do you mean by community-focused?
The Doge meme has a single coin and community on Reddit. We believe the Pepe meme should also have a single coin and community just like Doge on Reddit.
From the start we have set out to build the best coin possible and bring everyone together into one massive community for Pepe.
