what's DJPEPE?
DJPEPE is a seminal non-fungible token (NFT) from the Rare Pepe collection, launched in 2016 on the Counterparty protocol built atop the Bitcoin blockchain. As Series 4, Card 29, it features a DJ-themed iteration of the iconic Pepe the Frog meme, embodying early crypto art and meme culture. With 169 tokens originally issued and none burned, DJPEPE represents a fixed-supply digital collectible that pioneered the intersection of memes, art, and blockchain technology, allowing ownership and trading via the XCP standard without relying on later platforms like Ethereum. The project gained prominence in crypto communities for its role in experimental uses, including the first music NFT implementations where holders accessed exclusive audio content and events. DJPEPE's lore portrays it as a turntablist frog symbolizing organic, alpha crypto culture, often featured in discussions around decentralized art, Counterparty assets, and the evolution of NFTs. It remains a cultural artifact in the Rare Pepe ecosystem, tradable on compatible wallets and marketplaces supporting legacy Bitcoin NFTs.
