Pepe Unchained says it is navigating a “challenging period” after MEXC decided to delist PEPU despite what the team described as continued market-making efforts.

MEXC had placed PEPU under an ST risk warning on August 11 and listed September 17 as its estimated delisting date. MEXC did not specify why $PEPU was selected for removal. Its notice said deposits and trading would stop after delisting, while withdrawals would remain available for 30 days.

The Pepe Unchained team also disclosed that 500 million PEPU remains unclaimed under its L2 compensation program. Eligible holders have until October 19 to claim. After the deadline, unclaimed tokens will be redirected toward project growth and community initiatives.

Developers also missed that week’s deliverables because of unforeseen delays. The team did not identify the affected work and said deliveries were expected to begin the following week.
Pepe Unchained launched in December 2024 after a presale that the team said raised $73 million. Five months later, it announced a chain migration from Optimism-based infrastructure to an Arbitrum-powered chain.

Holders were offered a 1 to 1 token swap, while total PEPU supply increased from 8 billion to 16 billion. The team said the additional tokens would support expanded staking rewards.

The L2 compensation program uses an April 24, 2025 snapshot and pays allocations in PEPU over six months.

Pepe Unchained ( $PEPU ) announced its Phase 2 developer toolkit on October 19, introducing Google and email login, session permissions, and sponsored transaction fees on mainnet.

Wallets are created in the background. Users can authorize an app within set limits instead of approving every action, and revoke access at any time. Developers can fund fees with PEPU, while the project covers a free daily allowance for its own apps.

The toolkit includes six app templates, a software development kit, a command-line setup tool, and tools for AI coding assistants. It integrates Privy for login and wallets, and ZeroDev Kernel for smart accounts and permissions. A live demo combines the features.

Phase 2 was scheduled for Q3 under the revised consumer-app roadmap. The October release follows September development delays and PEPU’s MEXC delisting.

Pepe Unchained reported raising $73 million before its December 2024 token launch. A May 2025 migration to an Arbitrum-powered chain introduced a replacement token and doubled supply from 8 billion to 16 billion PEPU for staking rewards.

Compensation for selected former-ecosystem token holders was paid over six months rather than restoring affected liquidity pools. The claim deadline is now October 30, 2026, extended from October 19. The project says remaining funds will be reassigned after that date.

Pepe Unchained ($PEPU) has updated its 2026 roadmap with a consumer first blockchain strategy.

According to the July 23 roadmap update, the project reviewed several possible directions, including AI, gaming, SocialFi, memecoins, DeFi, and a general-purpose rollup. The team said AI applications can still exist on PEPU, but it does not want the blockchain to depend on one market narrative. It also said gaming ecosystems such as Immutable and Ronin already have years of relationships with studios and developers.

Instead, Pepe Unchained said it will focus on consumer applications where users can trade memes, play games, collect items, earn rewards and use products, while the blockchain itself moves into the background.

Phase 1 includes simpler onboarding, social logins, account abstraction where possible, gas sponsorship, improved developer documentation, SDKs and templates, improved APIs, stronger explorers and analytics, and easier deployment and testing.

The July 23 update follows an earlier 2026 roadmap announcement in which Pepe Unchained said it needed a clearer long-term identity instead of remaining "just another rollup." That roadmap introduced a three-phase plan beginning with research into underserved crypto markets, consumer demand and builder feedback. The latest update concludes that process by positioning Pepu as a consumer-first blockchain before later phases focused on technical improvements, builder support and ecosystem growth.

Pepe Unchained raised more than $73 million during its token presale before launching its Ethereum Layer 2 network and PEPU token in December 2024. The project migrated to a new Layer 2 infrastructure and introduced a new PEPU token in May 2025.
