AI Summary

PepeCoin's creators explain why they built a dedicated proof-of-work blockchain for the meme coin, how it stands out from thousands of other meme tokens, and why mining ensures fairer distribution than staking. - PepeCoin was created because no dedicated blockchain existed for the "Pepe" meme culture—most meme tokens are made on platforms like Pump.fun or Ethereum and lack their own ecosystem. - The team chose proof-of-work mining over proof-of-stake because PoW rewards those who secure the network (miners) rather than the largest holders, enabling fairer coin distribution. - PepeCoin uses merged mining, the same technology that secures Dogecoin, making it an attractive and proven security model. - On CoinMarketCap, only about 50 proof-of-work coins have verified market caps; PepeCoin ranks as the second-largest PoW meme coin after Dogecoin. - Most PoW chains are "ghost chains" with little active mining, while PepeCoin maintains a live, operational network. - The project positions itself as "community first," prioritizing people and culture alongside real blockchain infrastructure. - The vast majority of meme coins are purely tradable tokens with no utility or ecosystem, whereas PepeCoin offers a full standalone chain. For anyone interested in mining or meme coins, PepeCoin's proof-of-work approach provides a rare opportunity to earn coins through hashrate rather than capital, and the project's unique position as a top-tier PoW meme coin makes it worth watching.

Transcript

Can everyone hear me okay? Oh yeah, oh yeah everything is fine. I was going can you hear me? Yeah, yeah, yeah Okay, that's everything. I mean, I think my mic my mic wasn't working so I mean it was a small introduction from my side Habit connect guys as he is taking so everything works well from my side Good to connect good to see you that's our first meeting probably and you know I have lots of things to discuss, right? We're a little bit late, but I think everything is is going really well right now So who's behind the PFP of peppercoin? How is going and I mean what's up? What's new? Yeah, not much just What we've been doing is we've Don't work it on a merch store. So that's mostly where my time has been going How about you? I mean pretty well pretty well Let me I don't know what's going on with my microphone I hope you can hear me now, but yeah, I mean I'm doing pretty well I've been waiting for the space for a few days for sure from the from the end of the previous week So have you to help it to be here because again as I said we have lots of things to discuss I think our community is also super interested in all more about you especially about mining side of it because yeah I mean I think we could start right I think Maria could probably join our stage feel free to send you send me a request and You know I'm you yourself, but I think we could start right so I would love to start with just you know kind of a small introduction from your side so why was the Pappacoin created and why you choose Papp as a symbol because you know It's like a cultural identity like kind of cultural symbol especially on the crypto field and I would love to learn more like why you've chosen it and Why you're still with Pappacan Right, yeah, so when it comes to cryptocurrencies, I I'm kind of like old school. I like the blockchains Yeah, like dogecoin like like coin Bitcoin And as far as I'm concerned there is no Pappacoin you know you there's no You know before this project there was no blockchain that you could actually that was dedicated for Pappa so Essentially it just didn't exist You know a lot of people make token tokens like all the time like they're you know making tokens on pump up on or You know a theorem or whatever But they just they you know they're they're tradable you can trade them But you can't really use them in the way that you can use you can't develop an ecosystem around them In the way that you can with something that's on its own chain and so that was what really Sparked the interest in creating a Pappacoin That was on its own blockchain The good one and another quick question from you why Why mining why not staking so in this year of you know kind of more Let's say sustainable chains why you've chosen the the mining side of the crypto I believe in proof of work. I think the proof of work is much better well There's a There's a different a big difference in the distribution of coins when it comes to proof of work versus proof of stake proof of stake tends to Help the bigger holders So the larger the larger bag that you have the larger that your your bag is going to grow And so that does Doesn't do a great job of distributing the coins Whereas with mining you have the people who are essentially securing the network the most with mining and hash rate Those people are the ones that are being rewarded and not necessarily the people who have the biggest holders So anybody can go out Buy an asick miner and start mining on the network and they can earn more coins than even the largest holders of the coin and I think that that's That's something that was very attractive to us and plus You know on top of that the The fact that merged mining was something that you know doge coin is secured with that was also enticing to Secure Pepe coin with that same technology Definitely and just a quick addition. I think I mean to be honest right now is the best time to joining like any mining Side of the crypts of field because we see especially on the mining sector of the of the any any pools you'll take It's kind of a small pilot right into the Adderly into the infrastructure and I mean to be honest from my side The mining even a bit coin is falling the mining is growing in case of a special in case of like fundamental product You're providing for the users for the companies. I mean, and that's why we're making this space It's right. So I mean amazing answers. I think we could switch to let's say more kind of uh, you know kind of an exposure from your side because that's kind of you know an average question that Usually, I mean especially me asking any any projects that we're talking with On the sessions and the chats everywhere. So I would love to learn more what makes Epic coin different from other meme coins because usually I mean from my experience when I'm searching I mean, I mean when I open like let's say coin Goi-maki cap right to the meme coin section. I'm scrolling. I'm checking. I mean that's amazing. Luke's dope The artwork is is great. I mean, but on the other hand, there is like nothing special from from Most of the projects on the meme on the meme side especially. So yeah, that's the first question And the second one is how does peppercoin combine this kind of meme culture and the real blockchain technology and especially mining because it's not like an average saying when you're a dropping a meme coin and you're like I'm also going to be on the mining side of it. So I would love to know more about this type of Top of questions from yes, I Yeah, so to go to coin market cap So if you actually go on coin market cap right now and you sort by you know meme coins, there are you know Thousands and thousands of coins. I think probably probably tens of thousands of coins or Actually, you know, that's interesting that you say I think I saw stats from pump.fun that they had created something around 13 million tokens since 2023 and I think that that was quoted in 2025 um, so It's it's it's more probably in the millions of tokens though they might not all be listed on coin market cap Um, but the point is is that on coin market cap they have you know, there's tons and tons of tokens out there But on coin market cap there is a proof of work section That you could open up and if you go onto that section there are under 200 coins proof of work coins on coin market cap and of those 200 coins I think only about 50 of them have verified market caps. They're actually alive And if you drill into each one of those you'll see probably I would say that Most of those chains are ghost chains not very many people are if any are mining them Of those 25 Pepe coins sits in the top or of those 50 pepe coins sits in the top 25 and of those 25 there are I believe there are two meme coins now this this data might be out of date. I'm going off top of my head um, but um There is you know, at the top 25 there is doge coin which sits in the number one proof of work meme coin and pepe coin is number two So pepe coin is the number two proof of work meme coin Um, and so there really is no other meme coin like pepe coin other than doge Um, there are a few other script chains that have popped up recently They're doing uh fairly well They're all merge minaboo as well But in terms of the vast majority of meme coins there is really nothing like pepe coin so um Yeah, I think we're we're doing something that's very unique And what was your second question if you could repeat that please? Oh, oh, yeah sure So I mean the second one was uh, how you're combining the meme culture The blockchain technology and I think especially mining because again It's not like an average thing when you're launching a mean token and you're like connecting it to the mind like it's really interesting concept to be honest Yeah, yeah, so um What we do like everything we do at pepe coin is People first so so we say that we're a community first coin and what that means is basically Our focus is on people So it's it's on uh, you know relationships with people You know real connections I you know a lot of people in crypto that try to you know kind of creative uh, you know Community of bots make themselves look like they're that they've grown a lot Um, I think there's some music playing Can anyone listen is it only me who's listening to what's I can I can hear some music Wait, let me check it out this pretty strange Uh, okay All right, um So like I was saying you know, we're uh, community first and our focus really is on people. That's what that means um, and so What we're trying to do is we're trying to create a place where people can come And you know, we have a lot of people that are brand new in crypto and never just like pepe coin is their first coin ever um, and What pepe coin What we're trying to do a pepe coin is be like a safe place for people to learn about blockchain blockchain technology Uh, learn how to you know manage their coins in a safe way And basically just ask questions and get to know people in the community And I think you know, I saw a message in our discord just this morning I forget exactly who it was to set up, but they were um, you know, they're basically saying that You know They were gonna stick around and and they were Um, like no matter what happens with the coin they you know, they're the friendships and the people they have gotten to know and the community is the main reason why they um Would are sticking around and and dedicating themselves and I think that that's really important because um, when you create real relationships with people when they come in they see the same faces and they talk to the same people every day And they get to know the people that are actually in the community uh, that creates real human connection And that's something that you really can't fake and it's something that I think that gives Pepe coin at strength And I think that will make the long term will make our community extremely resilient to any kind of market conditions Um, and I think that that is That's our strength is our focus on people And that's that's the approach that we've uh, went with and I think We're doing a really good job with that I mean, that's for sure remember because I mean again coming back to your stats about the fond fun There is another stats. I don't remember the actual number but from this mean token is that you've been Talking about this kind of millions of tokens. I think more than 80 maybe 90% of them being just dumped right was kind of a Ponzi seeing I mean low cap projects overall no community just kind of great dark zone right and that's really great to to see the project They're like combining not only this kind of Neme narrative and only community side of it but also kind of a technology So I mean, that's that's probably why we're just you know decided to connect and you know just to continue our amazing collapse So yeah, I mean, that's great And I just want to like slightly move to the To another member of EMCD Maria. I hope you were with us. So would love to Also, how is going first of all and secondly feel free to unmute yourself and continue the discussion here Hi everyone team. Thank you for the introduction. I hope everyone is doing great and I think that we can continue um as previously uh you mentioned about um script Merch mining so I would love to speak a little bit about technology behind peppy coin Maybe you can explain a little bit what exactly is merge mining and how does it work because actually Previously, I didn't know about that And let's say what advantages does merge mining provide compared
