Pepe (PEPE) is the largest meme coin on Ethereum, inspired by the iconic internet meme “Pepe the Frog.” Launched in April 2023, PEPE rapidly became one of the biggest meme coins by market cap, surpassing $10 billion at its 2024 peak. Unlike many meme coins, PEPE has no utility — its value is driven purely by community, culture, and speculative demand. Despite high Ethereum gas fees, PEPE remains one of the most actively traded tokens globally. African investors can buy and sell PEPE on Bitget and Bybit using local currencies.
In Senegal, buying Pepe (PEPE) is possible using Orange Money or Wave via P2P on Bitget and Bybit. This guide explains the full process from XOF to PEPE.
