As BTC stopped falling, the Meme sector, which had been silent for a while, finally couldn't hold back and began to rebound. The first to be hit was the top Memecoin $Pepe. However, this time, many "family members" also rebounded along with $Pepe.

The popularity of Memecoin has continued to spread this year, and Pepe alone can no longer meet the market's hype needs. As a result, various small frogs that had not been subdivided before and were collectively called Pepe were also picked out by the market and transformed into various new Memecoins.

TechFlow has taken stock of the popular Pepe family tokens with the same name in the current market, giving you an in-depth understanding of the native frog Meme cultural system.

Keep this Pepe family tree, just in case the "frog boom" comes one day.

PS: Since the market has not yet reached a consensus on the image of the Pepe family, this article introduces the Twitter accounts of the most popular projects for each Meme image.

As the most classic character in frog meme culture, $Pepe is also the first frog memecoin to become popular in the cryptocurrency circle. To be honest, it is even more popular than most people expected. There is no need to elaborate on the wealth story of Pepecoin. From the background of meme culture, Pepe is the earliest character image of the frog family. He was created by cartoonist Matt Furie. Pepe first appeared in Furie’s comic "Boy’s Club" in 2005. After that, he was loved by users of the 4chan forum and gradually became a widely spread meme on 4chan.

Now, Pepe has become a well-known IP that cannot be ignored in the crypto world. It took less than a year for $Pepe, which has attracted much attention from the market, to become the dominant Memecoin.

The coin with the same name Pepecoin

In addition, after $Pepe became popular last year, many tokens with the same name appeared. Among them, $Pepecoin does not seem to be a simple popularity. In its official article, it is mentioned that the team planned to launch a virtual currency with the same name in the image of Pepe as early as 2016, but failed to implement it successfully for various reasons. It was not until 2023 that $Pepe's popularity rekindled the team's enthusiasm. After $Pepe became popular, the team also followed suit to issue coins. There seems to be controversy over the "legitimacy" of the "Frog Pepe" IP coin issuance rights.

According to the editor's investigation, the $Pepecoin pool is relatively large. When $Pepe skyrocketed at the beginning of the year, $Pepecoin also skyrocketed. It has not returned to zero until now (but it has been halved).

However, it is clear that the market is no longer satisfied with hyping a single frog meme. The wealth effect and IP influence brought by $Pepe have spread to other frog meme images.

Smug Pepe

It is worth mentioning that since the penetration of frog meme culture cannot keep up with the hype of the Crypto market, Sumg Pepe has always been used as the icon of the $Pepe token. Until now, the avatar used by Pepecoin’s official Twitter account is still Sumg Pepe, which also reflects that most people are not so concerned about the subdivided frog culture. Details such as which frog is in the chart are not the main points that the hype market cares about.

After searching around, the editor found that there is no unified consensus in the market on the hype of the Smug Pepe image. The existing Smug Pepe-related Twitter accounts are diverse. The Memecoin pool is shallow and lacks liquidity, and the risk of participation is relatively high. Interested readers can learn more and stay tuned.

MonkaS was first created by Twitch TV as an emoticon based on the image of Pepe. Its meaning is "Shocked and sweaty Pepe" and it is often used in tense moments during game live broadcasts.

As the image closest to Pepe, MonkaS was also picked out as an independent IP for hype very early on. It was only when I saw someone CX MonkaS that I realized that it was not the same image as the original Pepe in terms of Meme culture. (It can also be regarded as a reflection of Memecoin's promotion of Meme culture)

Apustaja, a young frog with a sloppy drawing style, is also one of the popular frog meme images. It has been extremely popular since its debut in 2016 (I like it too). Many meme images of Apustaja have gradually emerged on the Internet. People are happy to project their real-world lives onto the image of Apustaja, and Apustaja is often seen appearing in various real-world life scenes. Many crypto projects also favor the creation of memes with Apustaja as the theme.

Currently $Apu is listed on Bybit exchange.

Ashbie

When talking about Apu, we have to introduce Apu's girlfriend Ashbie. At some point, netizens arranged a cute girlfriend Ashbie for the popular character Apu. Various meme pictures of Apu and Ashbie dating gradually began to appear on the Internet. This slightly contrasting combination did not make people feel uncomfortable, but surprisingly suitable? Apu and Ashbie were also once used by netizens as the representative image of the pure love meme "This could be us".

It is worth mentioning that before the launch of the $Ashbie token, Dev gave free airdrops to users who had previously left messages on Twitter. When the token price was at its highest point, the airdrop value for a single account was close to US$2,500.

Peepo

Peepo is also a young frog in the Pepe family. Most people’s knowledge of Peepo may come from the various emoticons in WeChat (?)

As a member of the Frog IP, $Peepo token has been popular in the community since its launch, and the project team is also relatively active on Twitter.

Currently $Peepo has been listed on the Bitget exchange.

Groyper

The image of Groyper first appeared on the 4chan forum, and the specific reason and reference are still unknown (it just became popular after being spread around). It is worth mentioning that this image of a frog with its chin in its hand is rarely used to express "wisdom", but is more often used as a profile picture by extreme right-wing and new right-wing groups or individuals on social networks.

Although speculation is good, protecting the principal is more important

After clarifying the differences between the Pepe family members, you will no longer have the confusing feeling of "they don't feel like they are the same but you can't tell exactly where they are different" when it comes to various Pepe emoticons.

However, most of the Pepe family concept tokens are still in the initial wild growth hype stage, with insufficient consensus and poor liquidity. There is a certain possibility of Rug, so please participate with caution.

Perhaps there are more frog family Memecoins that have yet to be discovered
