Pepe the Frog was created by artist Matt Furie in his 2005 comic "Boy's Club." The character's "feels good man" expression was adopted by the internet and evolved into countless variations. Despite controversies around its misuse, Pepe remains one of the most enduring and adaptable memes ever created. In crypto, Pepe spawned dozens of tokens, with the original PEPE token reaching billions in market cap.
