Today, July 26th, marks our monthly MEME and PEPE power-up day. It's a wonderful opportunity to strengthen some of your Hive-Engine token holdings and contribute to the vibrant meme and creative culture here on Hive by staking MEME and PEPE tokens today. Please be sure to also check out @pepetoken's post about the possibility of receiving PEPE delegation for powering up MEME and PEPE tokens today.
But while we are powering up MEME and PEPE tokens, we have to ask, "Where in the world is Pepe the Frog today?"
It turns out Pepe is also celebrating power today—the power of the steam engine.

It was an event of gears, goggles, and Victorian-inspired fashion. The convention, held in the heart of the city, was abuzz with steampunk fiction enthusiasts showcasing their intricate costumes and elaborate inventions. But amid the sea of top hats and corsets, one unexpected character stole the show: Pepe the Frog. Known for his ever-changing persona and meme status, Pepe's appearance at the steampunk convention was both surprising and delightful. But for today's cosplay you can call him "Cogsworth Croak."
Steampunk is a genre which blends science fiction with the aesthetics and technology of the Victorian era, roughly spanning the late 19th to early 20th century. Imagine living in a world where steam power remains the dominant form of energy, powering fantastical inventions and druving intricate machinery. This alternative history often features a mix of historical and speculative elements, where airships soar through the skies, and automatons and gadgets abound.
Steampunk conventions are a celebration of creativity, imagination, individuality and the blending of different influences and styles. Steampunk Pepe is a perfect representation of this ethos, reminding everyone of the joy in merging different aspects of culture and imagination.
The steampunk community is known for its creativity and acceptance of unique interpretations within the genre, and Steampunk Pepe is no exception.
