The Origin of Pepe

佩佩的由來

Created in 2005 by Matt Furie, Pepe the Frog initially gained popularity as an internet meme and later became a symbol in the cryptocurrency space.

Pepe the Frog 由 Matt Furie 於 2005 年創建，最初作為網路迷因而廣受歡迎，後來成為加密貨幣領域的象徵。

Pepe's depiction as a "peaceful frog-dude" shifted during the 2016 US election, as alt-right groups began using it. Despite this, the Anti-Defamation League has emphasized that "the majority of uses of Pepe the Frog have been, and continue to be, non-bigoted."

佩佩對「和平青蛙」的描述在 2016 年美國大選期間發生了變化，另類右翼團體開始使用它。儘管如此，反誹謗聯盟強調，“佩佩青蛙的大多數用途一直是、並將繼續是不偏執的。”
