These will be the first tokens and dApps to roll out on the PEPU layer 2. To apply, developers will just need to build and submit a project, and the Pepe council will vote on if they’ll be selected for a grant. It’s essential that we equip developers with all the necessary tools—comprehensive guides and financial support—to build outstanding dApps. In Q4, we’ll officially open grant applications…
