What creators say this is about

3 creators linked a source, but no two-fifths of them agree on one — no shared origin.

What they are calling it

  • Pepe le Pew3 creators
  • HIPPO NAMED PEPE!!!!!!!2 creators
  • Pepe2 creators
  • MogCat1 creator
  • pepe1 creator

These links and names come from the token metadata each creator wrote themselves. The Trench Desk observed that independent creators cite the same source — it has not verified what that source says, and a creator can link anything.

Is real money behind it?

  • 65 of 600 tokens under this ticker have any observed trade activity at all.
  • 9 have migrated to a live market.
  • 387 wallets bought into more than one token under this ticker — the same buyers reappearing across siblings.

What the creators put in

576.32 SOL committed across 600 launches, a median of 0.052 SOL each and a largest single buy of 38.12 SOL.

This is what the creators spent on their own tokens, not what anyone else did — it is skin in the game, never demand. Worth knowing that The Trench Desk’s own record shows the figure does not predict reaching a live market: across 59,000 launches, tokens with no dev buy at all migrated slightly more often (2.4%) than those with 1–3 SOL behind them (1.2%).

Trade evidence is counted only from what The Trench Desk has observed. Absence of trades means absence of observation, not proof that none occurred.

Who is launching it

Creator counts can be one actor operating many wallets — The Trench Desk cannot distinguish that from genuine independent adoption.

Who got here first

Wallet #1625 launched the earliest token The Trench Desk observed under this ticker, 41d ago.

From a batch origination snapshot (unknown confidence), not a live calculation — it may lag very recent activity.

Every time this name has been tried

Runs are separated by at least 6 quiet hours, over the last 30 days. Counts are a floor: they include only launches The Trench Desk was watching for, so this name has been launched at least this many times — never fewer. A run with no migration marked is one where none was observed, which is not the same as none occurring.
