[ANN] PepChain - An Ethereum compatible DPOS sidechain

[CryptoPepes]

Since the launch of Ethereum (genesis block in august 2015), Ethereum has experienced exponential growth. At the peak in january 2018 it processed more than 1.3 million transactions on 1 day.

PepChain is build upon the Parity codebase with a modified Aura consensus protocol to enable DPOS. The number of validators is liquid and is voted on by the active validators. This allows for bigger blocks and a 5 second block time offering a far more scalable network.

The native token of the PepChain is called PEP. The PEP tokens will be distributed during the proof of work period of 3 months of a game called CryptoPepes, you can read more about that here:

this looks nice!
I'm in!

[oioioi]

seeing this coin uses the same codebase as ethereum, I'm sure this will be very good for very fast development, but, even so, the influence of prices also determines the condition of this coin in the future, hopefully it will be more stable than ethereum, incidentally ethereum is quite stable even though the price is not good lately

Project sound good!  How do I be validator?

[TouGhiE]

Nice, another Blockchain game!

[TiN SoldieR]

How much of the game is developed atm?

Hello devs, what type of protocol is used for Pepchain?

[Garag]

 Is it ERC-721 or ERC-20?

[BlacK CrowN]

Is it ERC-721 or ERC-20?

  If I’m not mistaken it’s ERC20

[BERgAMOT_BEHgEMOT]

Is it ERC-721 or ERC-20?

  If I’m not mistaken it’s ERC20

  So, Pepes are made on ERC721?

[Razhabov]

It’s really interesting

[IWYXYM]

This is the first time I see ERC721 alive

[Fett11]

This is the first time I see ERC721 alive

Yeah, it’s rare nowadays

[PISTON_1]

But I personally think that this protocol is more advantageous than older one, uniqueness of every token is what could be used in the nearest future I guess

Maybe you are right, but let’s look at situation that we have now - it is used only for fun. Remember those kitties that had blown Ethereum network, they are made on the same ERC721

Hey team, it’s really cool idea with those Pepes, one of my favorite memes  What type of Pepes will be available and what differences between every generation?

Yeah, interesting question, don’t know why devs haven’t written a word about the game itself

The game is available, just try it by yourself, I bet you’ll get all info about it

For real? I’ve thought that they are developing sidechain now... Well, I’ll try it soon

 What is DPOS? Is it like getting a masternode for holding some amount of tokens?
