The Pepu community continues to show incredible support, and September was proof of what we can achieve together. From global merch shipments to new products and dev tools, we’ve built momentum that sets the stage for October. This month is about rewarding our community, expanding visibility, and unlocking the next chapter of Pepe Unchained.
Resolving the L2 token issue remained our top priority. While we anticipated this being wrapped up in September, the full chain snapshot proved more complex than expected due to its massive size.
To speed things up, we’ve brought in additional support from data analysts, and the dev team is actively working on it. Although timelines shifted, getting this right is essential for long-term stability. Updates will be shared the moment progress is made.
September saw the launch of the Pepu Merch Store, featuring the limited-edition Genesis Collection. These high-quality items capture the culture of Pepe Unchained, with all proceeds directed toward community seasonal rewards.
Merch has already started shipping across the globe, connecting Pepu holders everywhere.
Two major upgrades went live in September:
PepuSwap: Now supports bonded tokens, adding trading flexibility and strengthening Pepu’s ecosystem functionality.
PumpPad: Tokens can now be bonded for a fee. Buy Before Launch: Pay 1,250,000 $PEPU to bond immediately. This gives projects faster access to bonding, while contributing to deeper ecosystem growth.
The Pepu Stats API was built and deployed in September. It’s already in use by community developers, powering tools and dApps across Pepu L2.
To further support builders, we’ll soon launch a Dev Showcase on the main site, making it easier for new users to discover Pepu-powered projects.
October marks the launch of our Seasonal Rewards program, powered by Galxe.
Quests Live Now: Season 1 will focus on onboarding new users with once-off quests.
Evolving System: Later seasons will integrate on-chain activity as a key factor in point accumulation.
Rewards: Seasonal prizes will be distributed in $PEPU, with additional rewards under consideration.
Growth Goal: By leveraging Galxe, we aim for 40–50k unique organic hits daily, exposing Pepe Unchained to a far wider audience.
Our community-driven Meet the Dev series relaunches on October 6. These articles will highlight the projects, dApps, and developers building on Pepu L2.
