About PEPEPOW
A Journey of Resilience and Growth
PEPEPOW launched on May 12, 2023, as a blockchain innovation built on the unique memehash algorithm, which combines eight distinct calculation algorithms. Forked from DASH (X11) and refined from AXE, PEPEPOW operates on a hybrid Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS) system. Rewards are distributed with 65% to PoW miners, 35% to PoS stakers, and 5% to developers to fund ongoing growth. With a block time of just 20 seconds, PEPEPOW’s maximum supply is set at 90 billion coins, of which approximately 38 billion are already in circulation (2024.12.14).
The Journey So Far:
PEPEPOW’s early days were marked by strong community interest and activity. However, challenges arose when the chain temporarily broke, and the original developer ceased maintenance. Instead of fading away, dedicated community members stepped in, reviving the project and restoring its momentum. Despite facing additional hurdles, such as a Discord server hack due to cookie hijacking, PEPEPOW has grown into a resilient and focused community, determined to continue developing and expanding.
Looking Ahead:
The future of PEPEPOW is brighter than ever. With the development of applying Xelish2-pepew algorithm by Foztor, the project is set to enhance its technology and security. Plans are also underway to build bridges to other blockchain networks and secure listings on decentralized exchanges (DEX), creating new opportunities for growth and accessibility.

A1: PepePow is a decentralized blockchain project that leverages the Pepe meme culture to create a platform for community collaboration, skill development, and global connections.
A2: PepePow uses the XelisV2-pepew proof-of-work algorithm, which is designed to be optimized for CPU mining.
A3: PepePow uses a dual reward system where 65% of the block reward goes to miners and 35% goes to masternode operators.
A4: The total supply of PepePow is capped at 90 billion coins.
A5: Superblocks are special blocks that occur every 1000 blocks and offer 2-5 times higher rewards than standard blocks.
A6: After the 90 billion supply cap is reached, only superblocks will provide block rewards to help replenish lost coins and dead wallets.
A7: PepePow will initially be governed by an intermediary organization that is obligated to fulfill prescribed objectives based on decentralization principles. Masternode holders can participate in governance through voting.
A8: Masternodes help govern the network, vote on proposals, and receive a share of the block rewards for their services.
A9: PepePow aims to drive adoption through strategic partnerships, marketing, and a bounty reward system based on the PEPEW coin.
A10: PepePow seeks to fill a gap by providing guidance and resources to promising ideas, enabling them to move from conception to implementation. It aims to create a collaborative ecosystem that outlives any single participant.
A1: The document serves as a guideline for the current representatives of the organization, outlining the DAO’s objectives, management strategies, and operational policies.
A2: The main objectives are ensuring fair practices, operational transparency, maintaining network security, upholding the vision outlined in the PEPEPOW whitepaper, and actively encouraging community growth.
A3: The DAO aims to minimize overheads by employing automated governance techniques, which can reduce human error, offer administrative redundancy, discourage the centralization of power, and improve operational sustainability.
A4: Votes must allocate sufficient time before expiration, be clear and concise, avoid ambiguous language, address new subjects descriptively, and accommodate simple majority outcomes by presenting topics with various options.
A5: Expenditures will be funded entirely by community members’ donations, either through direct funding or indirect initiatives such as partnerships or mining to the official community pool.
A6: The main categories are Grants (10%), Network Infrastructure (20%), Reserve Fund (30%), and Marketing (40%).
A7: The Grants category is aimed at funding collaborations and projects that broaden the PEPEPOW ecosystem, such as social media initiatives, layer 2 protocols, DEX integrations, and business-level infrastructure.
A8: The Network Infrastructure category covers costs associated with fair compensation for work done by immediate DAO members and community members who actively contribute to the project, including administration, paid bounties, core development, and project-related service providers.
A9: The Reserve Fund is aimed at project rescue, emergencies, and providing a hedge against capital losses or total abandonment. It can be implemented through alternate asset accumulation or allocating funds to a PEPEPOW masternode.
A10: Until further notice, votes will only be accepted for consideration via direct participation on the official Discord server.
