Hi,
I recently was juggling with PEPE since it showed
nicer numbers than ETH. 1 PEPE is currently 0.0000001 ETH.
So instead of buying grocery with 0.0001 ETH (ca. 3.5 USD),
I used 1000 PEPE, which felt like 1000 cent?
You can do the same with FLOKI.
Can Bitcoin do that?
The PEPE meme coin, like many other meme coins, operates as a token on a blockchain. Specifically, PEPE runs on the Ethereum (ETH) network as an ERC-20 token.
Key Points about PEPE:
ERC-20 Token: PEPE is created as an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, which follows the ERC-20 standard. This means it inherits the Ethereum blockchain's properties, including its security, decentralization, and compatibility with Ethereum-based wallets, decentralized exchanges (DEXs), and other tools.
Meme Coin Nature: PEPE is a meme coin inspired by the popular "Pepe the Frog" meme, similar to other meme coins like Dogecoin or Shiba Inu. While its value is largely driven by community engagement, meme culture, and speculative interest, it still functions as a token within the Ethereum ecosystem.
Smart Contract: As an ERC-20 token, PEPE is governed by a smart contract, which defines its total supply, how transactions are processed, and other technical parameters. These smart contracts are executed on the Ethereum network, ensuring that transactions with PEPE are transparent, secure, and decentralized.
In summary, PEPE is an ERC-20 meme coin running on the Ethereum blockchain, leveraging its infrastructure to provide token functionality while being part of the broader meme coin phenomenon.
A Bitcoin piggybacked meme coin typically refers to a meme coin that is either inspired by Bitcoin or uses Bitcoin's name, branding, or principles but operates on a different blockchain. These coins might not necessarily share Bitcoin's underlying technology but are often created to capitalize on Bitcoin's popularity or mimic its model.
For example:
Bitcoin-inspired meme coins: These meme coins may adopt Bitcoin's name or branding (like "Bitcoin Cash" or "Bitcoin SV"), but they are separate cryptocurrencies with their own blockchains and technical features.
Tokens on Bitcoin-based platforms: There are platforms like Stacks that allow for the creation of smart contracts and tokens on top of the Bitcoin network. Meme coins built using this type of technology could be seen as "piggybacking" off Bitcoin's security and popularity but are actually functioning on different protocols designed to enable smart contracts and token creation.
However, most meme coins (e.g., Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, PEPE) generally don't directly run on Bitcoin’s blockchain. Instead, they operate on platforms like Ethereum, Solana, or Binance Smart Chain, which allow for the creation of custom tokens.
In summary, while there are coins inspired by Bitcoin, many meme coins run on different blockchain platforms and don’t technically "piggyback" off Bitcoin itself, but may use its name or appeal to capitalize on its fame.

Hi,
The good thing is that Muricas have
no Braincells. They might really try to
establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve,
basically not understanding what Crypto
means and how limited Bitcoin will be
in the future, Bitcoin will basically dissolve
in a few years, and be replaced by
other Coins that are faster and unlimited.
Bye
P.S.: Even China is laughing at Muricas:
JUST IN: 🇨🇳 China Central TV reports that
“Trump has promised to make the US the
world's #Bitcoin and crypto capital and
establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve.”

But you find the idea also formulate by Muricas.
