# The Book of Kek

## What is the Book of Kek?

The **Book Of Kek** is an open repository that aims to tell the fascinating story of Pepe the Frog. While Pepe was at first a simple cartoon character created by the artist [Matt Furie](https://wiki.pepe.wtf/chapter-1-historical-lore/the-creator-matt-furie), the versatile frog quickly took over the internet, adopting a life of its own, before becoming **the universal meme** that he is today. 

In this book we aggregated as much information, links and tutorials as possible, with the goal to present not only Pepe's history, but also the lore surrounding [Rare Pepes](https://wiki.pepe.wtf/chapter-2-the-rare-pepe-project/the-rare-pepe-blockchain-project), [Fake Rares and Dank Rares](https://wiki.pepe.wtf/chapter-2-the-rare-pepe-project/fake-rares-and-dank-rares) (NFT trading cards on the [Counterparty](https://wiki.pepe.wtf/chapter-3-blockchain-counterparty-how-to/counterparty-what-is-it) Blockchain), as well as the [latest news](https://wiki.pepe.wtf/pepe-news-outlet) from the wider Pepe community. 

We invite you to take a deep dive down the Pepe frog hole... 🐸
