When I first saw $PEPE, it seemed like just another joke in a world where memes had become currency. A frog with a story, a community with fire, and a chart that jumped as if Pepe himself were tugging at the candles by their whiskers.
I got in. Not because I believed — but because curiosity turned out to be stronger than skepticism.
At first, there was growth: profit, FOMO on Twitter, art, "memes are eternal."
Then silence. Then a fall. Then "why was it worth so much in the first place?"
