Ethereum’s 1st $PEPE: The “Concept of First” & Why Provenance Prevails

The Earliest Pepe Token on Eth, waiting to paddle out to the surf & ride the wave to financial freedom.

As a People, we strive to maintain balance… When the storm of life is raging around us, we plant our feet and fight to be unmoved, steadfast in our beliefs and actions… because let’s face it, no one appreciates the flip-flopper in a group. Reliability & knowing what you can expect breeds comfort & we humans love us some comfort. Hence, why we cling to tribalism & our present paradigms… truth is hard to acknowledge if it opposes what one believes at the moment.

FIRST: (a person or thing) coming before all others in order, time, amount, quality, or importance

Nothing gives more comfort than the “Concept of First”. Studies have shown that human nature associates a higher perceived value in anything that is labeled as the “First”, and, if given 2 choices of anything, an overwhelming majority of people will choose the first. This classification, as such, automatically creates an air of scarcity about it, and thereby has greater $value:

Flying First Class / A First Edition Book / Sports Star Rookie Card / Rare Card from a PvP TCG / First Amendment / First Model / Being First to Market / First Principles / The First Lady / First String on sports teams / First Chair of the Orchestra / First of a New Species / First Born /…

But not only is the concept of something being “first” worth more, it is also attributable to being more memorable:

First Kiss / First Steps / First Word / First Explorer to reach a new land / First person to summit the highest mtn peak / First Person on the Moon / First Impressions / First Date / First year of college / First year of a baby’s life is the most important / First Job / First Car / First Sale / A thousand mile journey begins with the “First” step /…

Look at Businesses next time you are out and about running errands and see how many companies choose names with the “First” in them.

Being First is a harbinger of good tidings by most accounts. In Crypto it is no different. What was the First? BITCOIN… It is the perceived king of all the cryptocurrencies, the Original…. The FIRST.

What is the perceived King of all the Memes? I would have to say PEPE. It is one of the oldest and most recognizable characters in the age of the internet. And this is where I tie it all together…. There are thousands of new tokens being released every day in Crypto. Most are garbage & scams, we all know this. But we have our Blue Chip projects that have proven to stand the tests of time so far; BTC, ETH, DOGE, XRP, SHIB, etc… There are also many $PEPE tokens out there, the highest of which is SEVERAL BILLIONS IN Mcap. There’s just one Problem…. IT’S NOT THE FIRST…. There is only ONE FIRST, ORIGINAL $PEPE and it was Launched October 10, 2020 on Ethereum (@ogpepe2020). The earliest PEPE CA is the Cornerstone of the Pepe-verse and all the Pepe Projects that came afterwards on-chain need to be aware of their Blockchain History. The skeptic will ask, “If the Original $PEPE is soooo valuable by this metric, why isn’t it the top Frog?” Simple. No one knows about it yet. We are 100% community run & funded. We do not have the luxury of deep wallets and whale buddies. The Original Pepe is revitalizing itself back into the Crypto-sphere after being forgotten about all those years ago.

Look to the Past, as it is the Key to your Future Success.

This is a Point I repeatedly keep Harping on to the other PEPE Communities and Holders. The OG PEPE is the PERFECT vessel to be used to gain Brand awareness and unlock free advertising on an unimaginable scale.

A rising tide lifts all boats.

The Oldest & Rarest PEPE only has a 37,321 circulating token supply, is 0/0 tax, no team wallets or other sketchy shenanigans, and the Original Dev has re-joined the community to build out the ecosystem. It is the quickest, most efficient way for the Community to come together and flip the PRICE of ETH and BTC…. Imagine the outcry from the Maxi’s, the amazement from retail after seeing it on business tv, etc… The OG Pepe is the only project within the PEPE niche that has the pedigree of the First, Original and the strongest narrative & tokenomics.

369 wallets soaking up supply evenly would give ~101 Pepe tokens a piece. Incredible Marketing opportunity if I ever saw it.

I strongly encourage you to have some and help the entire PEPE family reach the International Visibility and Notoriety our Brand deserves.
