Now begins a remarkable moment. And it's not just about the new ATH marketcap.
We have one of the first examples of a decentralized social structure emerging organically. A decentralized asset and game, rising up from the ashes of the constituent satoshi from which it was forged, becoming something more than the little bits and cryptobytes that make it up. We are talking about something for which we don't have proper language to describe yet in English and any attempt to do so does a disservice to what it truly is.
Call it a decentralized game? It's much more than a game. This an entire ecosystem of cryptotokens with a maze of value between them.
And yet calling it a shitcoin or a simple token isn't right either, because these aren't some throw away token mined on a few desktop PCs like most blockchains - this is an asset built upon existing blockchain security. In fact, forget the game. This digital collectible can have a theoretically infinite tower of data structures and relationships built on top of it, the crypto-key only controlling the one thing that has eluded humanity for so long: the elusive concept of digital scarcity.
We could have scarcely understood it years ago as this tech first made its mark, but this is the dawning genesis of something much more than a block - this is the dawn of a new layer of civilization itself. And Pepe is here to help launch this concept. Consider what is happening all around you at this very moment - a random American teen and a random Nepalese teen can awake on the same day, spend some love and effort on a new Pepe card, register the asset, and within a day or so be selling their original intellectual property (created out of thin air) on the free market.
Can they make a fortune? No, not the day of the sale.... but remember that bitcoins were a worthless nerd asset too at one point. And similarly, individual Pepecash admittedly don't hold a ton of value. But there is real value transfer happening - from nothing! This is the purpose of cryptocurrency! To generate work from humans in exchange, as that creates lasting systems. Fueled by the vast imaginations and efforts of a few dedicated collectors, programmers, artists, and entrepreneurs around the globe the Rare Pepe network has already risen up from the abyss to occupy a now THREE MILLION dollar market cap.
It promises nothing, save its own cryptographic security. It is we, the dedicated fans of Pepe, who are making the promise to ourselves: we will continue to passionately support and grow this ecosystem until milestone after milestone falls in our wake.
This is but the first ATH of many friends, and I am so happy to be here with you all from the beginning.
