We have four trading pairs at our disposal, so we are ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) spoiled for choice. For staking, liquidity pools are available. They've also got a live promo running with a chance to earn some NKYC, https://discord.gg/gTsgt6y7 BitxonexThe Bitxonex website is no longer supported by PEPEPOW; use at your own risk. Block rewardsHappy halving! The first reduction in rewards since the reboot. DAOOver the next four weeks, we will be adding a minimum of eight new members to the team, this includes a moderator role and voting rights within the DAO. These new members will be nominated and voted for by you, so please check-in regularly for further instructions. It is time to focus our efforts on establishing internal policies, which will include funding allocations, voting rules/criteria, and a chain of command.

Alert!
Unfortunately, there has been a breach. Several users have reported that their wallets have been emptied.
The cause, has been traced to malware found in the new Fulminare wallet.
This scam is not new, scans report the use of a keylogger, the wallet file is then uploaded to the hacker. It may already be in their possession, along with recent passwords entered via a keyboard.
Windows users in particular, who have interacted with this wallet. To protect you from future losses we recommend, you create brand new wallets for any coins on the compromised PC.

NewsGuess who just got added to CoinGecko? https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/pepepowAdd it to your watchlist, share the page, sieze the day! Also, we released V1 of the whitepaper, a couple days ago, which is linked on the website under "documentation." HackFollowing the events of the stolen coins, from the initial theft and report, to the watchful eyes of the community and a little bit of luck. The stolen funds, on their way to the markets, have been successfully recovered by the Xeggex exchange. Claims will be processed by our developers, to verify the ownership of the wallet, these will go on record until funds are released by Xeggex, most likely to new wallets. To minimize impersonation attempts, all claims must be completed within 72 hours of this announcement. Any coins not claimed after this expiration, will be burned or donated to the PEPEPOW DAO. Pending confirmation of legality, of course, and a few other conditions, but this decision will be put to a community vote.

I wrote a small story to explain what happened with this coin, as there was some confusion! Working on getting it translated to multiple languages (if you speak a language other than English natively, please leave a comment there may be a bounty available for you!) The PEPE POW story is about decentralization and the utility of code as law. Find out how the PEPEW network freed itself of central authority.
PEPE POW layer 1 blockchain core originated in early May 2023 in the form of a cryptocurrency code fork (DASH) produced by an unknown developer. Likely using AI-assisted tools and hoping to capitalize on the popularity of the PEPE Ethereum token which was growing (at the time) - a frog-themed dash fork was produced which claimed to one day rival doge-coin as the “second best” proof of work meme coin.
In the post ETH-merge mining environment of 2023, the few miners left who had not yet sold their cards or shut down their operations were desperate for something to believe in. They checked mining pool stats and Bitcoin talk forum every morning to find the newest coins – as the competition was so fierce and the rewards so sparsely distributed.
PEPE POW billed itself as a community coin which would align itself with the greats among decentralized meme coins. As the miners began to discover this new coin, the community grew and began to form a life of its own. A tipping point came when multiple commercial mining software developers released new mining software that supported the PEPE Pow algorithm “memehash” for GPUs.
Though the project was PEPE “Proof of Work” it included additional features borrowed from DASH, such as a proof of stake governance layer (which rewards masternode owners with part of the block rewards) and of course, a developer fee. With the availability of commercial mining software, more pools and more miners became interested.
Though there was a developer fee on a “community coin” – the network participants were still motivated and interest grew rapidly, at a point doing so exponentially. As more and more miners began to onboard, the network hash rate grew and soon PEPE POW was on the top of the hashrate no charts as a top-performing proof of work asset for home graphics cards.
As the joy from the peaks subsided, real issues began to emerge. The code was botched, resulting in issues maintaining consensus. As the need for development rose, the original developer became more quiet until eventually disappearing altogether, unable or unwilling to fix the issues of the chain, likely already selling everything he had earned.
Leaving the chain for dead, the community however refused to die. A band of organized community members, including a willing developer who was motivated to help, began the process of slowly taking over the chain. Exchanges and pool owners were notified of the change and more than once it seemed that there was no hope.
Like rescuing a patient from a certain death, many members rushed to the aid of the coin – proving that there was much more value in the meme cryptocurrency protocol than what was dumped on the market. With the proper work being done correctly (including the help of many contributors) the community was able to fork PEPE POW into a new master branch.
The original developer fee was removed and the chain managed to survive. PEPE POW now exists as a testament to the effectiveness of decentralization, specifically in the context of using computer code to solve the “Byzantine general” problem. PEPEW is able to survive with competing interests all existing together cohesively, “trustlessly.” (operating confidently with trust, without actually trusting any individual to be honest)
PEPEW has shown that open-source systems such as Bitcoin can be used by individuals to establish and maintain trustless decentralized networks without the need for a central authority, or a developer to skim from the top. Using the governance feature of smart nodes to incentivize node holders, as well as the ability to mine and earn using a home computer – PEPE Proof of Work is set to become the next best Proof of Work Memecoin!

Tip of the day!Did you know that after the community takeover pepew is the only masternode project without a dev fee that i can think off ... the first thing we did from a community vote we have removed the 15% non sense dev fee You may find the whitepaper from here https://pepepow.org/A block is found every 20 seconds, these new coins are split between master nodes and miners at, 35% and 65% respectively.
