About
Pepecoin is a decentralized, open-source peer-to-peer digital currency and Proof-of-Work blockchain network based on the Bitcoin codebase. Operating as a dedicated Layer-1 blockchain for digital payments and tipping, the network achieves consensus without smart contracts and uses a Scrypt hashing algorithm that allows merged mining alongside Litecoin and Dogecoin. Transactions on the network are validated by independent nodes through a simple rule set and confirmed within a few minutes with minimal fees. The network relies on a global distributed ledger to facilitate secure, trustless transfer of digital value across borders.
