The Origin of Pepe

佩佩的由来

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 于 2005 年创建，最初作为互联网迷因而广受欢迎，后来成为加密货币领域的象征。

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."

佩佩对​​“和平青蛙”的描述在 2016 年美国大选期间发生了变化，另类右翼团体开始使用它。尽管如此，反诽谤联盟强调，“佩佩青蛙的大多数用途一直是、并将继续是不偏执的。”
