The past few weeks have been full of momentum, progress, and steady community support. While some challenges remain, the ecosystem keeps moving forward with exciting developments across products, partnerships, and community initiatives.
L2 Snapshot Analysis – In Progress
At the beginning of September, we shared that resolving the L2 token issue was our top priority. While we anticipated closing this out quickly, the snapshot analysis has taken longer than expected.
The devs are actively working through this, and although timelines have shifted, clearing this properly is essential for long-term stability. We’ll keep you updated as progress continues.
Pepu Merch Store – IS LIVE
We’re excited to announce that the Pepu Merch Store is now live!
The Pepu Genesis Collection features limited-edition, high quality, premium items designed with the culture of Pepe Unchained in mind. Each piece has been created with durability, detail, and style at its core.
All proceeds from the merch store will go directly toward future community seasonal rewards, starting this October.

Seasonal Rewards – Starting October
Beginning in October, we’ll launch seasonal rewards to recognize and engage our community.
-
Powered by Galxe: We’ll use Galxe.com as the backbone of our rewards program, not only to track points and seasonal quests, but also as a powerful tool for onboarding new members into the Pepu ecosystem.
-
Growth Expectations: By leveraging Galxe, we anticipate generating 40–50k organic unique hits per day, exposing Pepe Unchained to a much wider audience.
-
Rewards: Seasonal prizes and community benefits will be funded through merch proceeds and ecosystem growth.
More details on quests, points, and prizes will be shared soon.
PepuSwap – Now with Bonded Tokens
We’ve updated PepuSwap, our native DEX, to now include bonded tokens. This upgrade improves trading flexibility and deepens functionality within the Pepu ecosystem.
Pepu Stats API – Keeping Metrics Fresh
Over the last month, we built and deployed the Pepu Stats API, ensuring accurate and up-to-date supply metrics. This will help synchronize Pepu data across 3rd party platforms. We’ve already reached out to listing sites and are awaiting their approvals.
