About us:
BluePepper is a dynamic startup at the forefront of blockchain and decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. We are building wDoge (https://www.wdoge.tech/), a Dogecoin-Ethereum bridge.
After getting the support from the Dogecoin Foundation and discussing technical details with Vitalik Buterin (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITLqGwBfAfY&t=1s), BluePepper has recently raised money from highly reputable VCs in the US and in the crypto space such as Ken Howery, Jeff Skoll, Bill Lee, Vinny Lingham, Sundeep Madra and Jonathan Smith.
The Dogecoin-Ethereum bridge allows Dogecoin users -the #8 cryptocurrency by market capitalization-, to participate in the Ethereum DeFi revolution, lending, borrowing, trading and more with their wrapped Doge assets. The wDoge asset is a joint collaboration in partnership with BitGo and the Dogecoin Foundation.
