Sending crypto isn’t like mailing a letter—it’s more like launching a spaceship with multiple verification stages. In this guide, we’ll dissect a PEPE coin transaction to reveal how cryptocurrencies move securely without banks.

Section 1: Anatomy of a Crypto Transaction
Visual Breakdown:

Private Key Amount + Fees Nodes Immutable Record
Key Components:
- Input: Source wallet (your PEPE balance)
- Output: Recipient’s address
- Gas Fee: Network processing cost
- Nonce: Unique transaction ID
Section 2: The 5-Step Journey of a PEPE Transfer
Step 1 – Initiation
You enter:
- Recipient’s address: pepe_amigo123
- Amount: 50 PEPE
- Gas fee: 2 PEPE (priority speed)
Common Error Alert:
❌ Copying addresses manually → Use QR codes to avoid typos!
Step 2 – Digital Signing
Your wallet:
- Creates a transaction hash (digital fingerprint)
- Signs it with your private key
- Output: A cryptographic proof like:
- Copy
- Signature: 7a3b…f9c2
Real-World Analogy:
Sealing an envelope with a wax stamp only you can create.
Step 3 – Broadcasting
Your transaction joins the mempool—a waiting room for unconfirmed transactions.
Bitcoin vs Ethereum Mempools:
Aspect | Bitcoin | Ethereum |
Avg Wait Time | 10 minutes per block | 12 seconds per block |
Capacity | 1MB per block | Dynamic gas limits |
Step 4 – Validation
Miners/validators check:
- Sufficient balance
- Valid signature
- Correct format
PEPE TAP Example:
When you earn 100 PEPE in-game, validation ensures no double-spending.
Step 5 – Confirmation
Transaction is added to a block. Confirmations = # of subsequent blocks.
Confirmations | Security Level |
1 | Risky (small amounts) |
6+ | Secure (large amounts) |
Section 3: Transaction Speed & Fees Explained
Bitcoin (Lightning Network):
- Fee: $0.001
- Speed: Instant (off-chain)
Ethereum (Post-Merge):
- Fee:
- 0.50−
- 0.50−5 (varies with network load)
- Speed: 5-15 seconds
Pro Tip: PEPE TAP uses low-fee networks so you keep more earnings!
Section 4: Tracking Your Transaction
- Block Explorer Search:
- Enter your TXID (e.g., 7a3b…f9c2) on PepeScan.org
- Status Interpretation:
- Pending: Still in mempool
- Confirmed: Added to blockchain

Debunking Myths
Myth: “Crypto transactions are untraceable.”
Truth: All transactions are public. Tools like Chainalysis track flows for exchanges.
