by But I’m not gonna walk you through in some complicated, technical jargon way, no — we’re doing this proper plain English style. Imagine this: one day scrolling through Twitter, a green frog with laser eyes appears. Out of this chaos, you can see a gigantic neon sign flashing in your face that says “BUY PEPE COIN” And, well, who the hell could blame you? You might not know your Dex from Cex You almost certainly don’t know your ‘meta’ from meme (those are entirely different) But never fear, for we shall banish these mists. Visit homepage for more information!
WHERE to get Pepe Coin first of all. Spoiler alert: it’s not lounging on Coinbase like the respectable blue-chip asset that Bitcoin is. Be prepared to start navigating the madness (and joy) that is decentralized exchanges, such as Uniswap or PancakeSwap. Not unlike the digital simulation of a flea market, where you barter for a Pepe The Frog that will surely purchase your pizza 10 years hence … or maybe a paper hat.
So Where are you going to keep Pepe? Typically, this appears to be MetaMask — a digital piggy bank veneered to the grand blockchain smorgasbord. Download it and, for the love of g-d/frogs, copy your secret recovery phrase into a place you keep safe. Care to ink it into your forearm? Your call.
You, too, will need some ETH (Ethereum) next. Go to any crypto exchange (like Kraken or Binance), get your ETH and send it to your MetaMask. Verify that wallet address three times, because if you so much as enter it with one character off your money slinks into a dark hole faster than you can croak “ribbit.”
Now for the main event. Do this for the Pepecoin smart contract address on Uniswap. 9. Open uniswap and connect to MetaMask, then paste in the Pepe Coin smart contract address Beware, there are fake contracts everywhere, jumping out of the woodwork like when frogs arrive by masses after monsoon rain. Select the amount of ETH you want to exchange, but keep in mind about transaction fees! There’s nothing quite like watching the “transaction failed” message come in, but still using your gas money to pay for it.
Hit “Exchange.” It is either immediate, or you feel that it has been going on in the background for a hundred years while they sweat and bleed. If it worked — congratulations, you now have Pepe Coin! If not, um… someone on Twitter has since made your same problem a meme.
Realistically speaking: Pepe Coin is basically FOMO research hormone/trading morale. So like a frog on a trampoline, prices bounce up and down — and nobody knows the next plot twist. Please do not put your life savings into a green meme coin unless you are ready to justify that at every family dinner for the rest of eternity.
But the best part is —half of the thrill is not knowing how it all ends. think of it as running around with no shoes on trying to catch the ice cream truck…it may be gone when you finally get there…but it was fun chasing. Who knows, maybe even it will be that Pepe never buys you a Lamborghini, then it will surely be a good story to tell in this crazzy online bar-of-the-weird slippery realm of crypto.
