Pepe the Vampire
The sticker Durov actually would have picked. A gothic Pepe risen on TON — real artist, real name-check, real receipts.
Contract dropping at launch
It's already trading. Not a promise — a price.
Every wallet, every bag — live. See the coven for yourself.
Every other Pepe swears it's the one. This one has a paper trail — a Durov name-check, a real artist, and a vampire theme TON already treats as premium.
$PEPE turned a 2005 comic frog into one of crypto's biggest memecoins (~$1.15B). $BRETT did it with a secondary Boy's Club character (~$51M). Internet art becomes a cultural asset — and $VAMPEPE has the one thing they never did.
On Halloween, Pavel Durov told millions his favorites were HalloweenUtya and ShadowKitty — "but only because the creator of PepeVampire didn't come up with enough stickers to get featured." Blocked by a technicality, not by preference.
Durov's Pepe link isn't a one-off joke. He bought a Plush Pepe NFT for $52,500 and joined the holders' Telegram group. Real capital, ongoing participation, tied to a Pepe collectible on TON. That's a pattern.
The pack was drawn by RM, who also made Boy's Club — a direct homage to Matt Furie, the creator of Pepe himself. The connective tissue between $VAMPEPE and the original Pepe canon isn't a stretch. It's the same hand.
This pack didn't vanish. TgSticker (~800K subs) resurfaced it in 2020, 2021 and 2022. A character featured across three straight Halloweens by Telegram's biggest curation channels has staying power the average one-and-done drop never gets.
Public receipts. A real artist. Durov's own words and wallet, already tied to Pepe on TON.
Join the coven“…but only because the creator of PepeVampire didn't come up with enough stickers to get featured.”
— Pavel Durov, on his favorite stickers of the season
Read that logically: PepeVampire would have been his pick — if it had simply had more stickers. That's the founder of Telegram, unprompted, telling millions a Pepe-vampire pack was effectively his real favorite.
A Russian illustrator who drew "Pepe the Vampire" for Halloween 2020 — later renamed The Vampire Frog, the 15-sticker pack that still lives on Telegram today.
His portfolio runs deep: Boy's Club (30 stickers, an open tribute to Matt Furie), Harry Gorilla (a Telegram animator-contest entry), and a Bloody Font emoji set — the dripping typeface whose DNA you're reading across this whole page.
“As a huge fan of Matt Furie's work, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to create a sticker pack featuring Pepe's friends.”
🖤 RM is not affiliated with $VAMPEPE and hasn't endorsed it. He's a busy working artist who'd rather not be pulled into memecoin noise — and we respect that completely. No spam, no tags, no pressure. We're here to admire the craft and give full credit, nothing more.
Across TON's gift ecosystem, the Dracula / “Bloody” model is a recurring rare tier — one of the most sought-after variants in collection after collection. $VAMPEPE isn't importing a foreign aesthetic. It's built from a theme the platform already treats as premium.
In 2020, Durov shared his “7 principles to look younger” — never drink, sleep a lot, live alone. It went viral, and the internet reached the obvious joke:
“I'm sure Durov has a portrait somewhere that gets older, fatter and sicker instead of its owner.”
— a widely-shared reaction
A man who avoids alcohol and meat, sleeps constantly, lives alone, and hasn't visibly aged in years — compared by his own audience to a cursed portrait. Durov is exactly who the internet would nominate as a vampire, if vampires were real.
The original animated pack, playing right here. This is the art Durov name-checked — not a redraw, the real thing.
