Learn how to claim your Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE) tokens directly in Best Wallet. This marks a new way to claim Upcoming Tokens directly in your wallet — no more connecting to a website in-app or on a desktop browser. test

Note: The Wall Street Pepe claim period starts on Monday the 17th of February at 2:00 pm UTC. This guide will help you get ready and successfully claim your tokens, but you aren't able to claim your tokens until then.

If you’ve participated in the $WEPE pre-launch sale through Best Wallet’s Upcoming Token tab, claiming your tokens is the next step to accessing and trading them in your wallet.

This article explains the simple process of claiming your tokens, potential challenges, and helpful tips to ensure a smooth experience. This includes troubleshooting advice for issues like high gas fees or app glitches.


Important: Claiming staked $WEPE tokens

If you've bought and staked $WEPE tokens, you won't be able to claim until 2:00 pm UTC on the 24th of February.

This is because there's a 7-day unlocking period for staked $WEPE tokens once Wall Street Pepe launches, meaning they aren't accessible or claimable.

This unstaking period is not set or managed by Best Wallet, and any query about staked tokens should be directed toward the Wall Street Pepe team.

You can see your staked token balance by connecting your wallet to https://wallstreetpepe.com/staking.

Guide on claiming in-app

You can now claim your $WEPE tokens directly in the Upcoming Tokens tab.

Step 1: Go to the Upcoming Tokens tab

Open the Best Wallet app and go to the Upcoming Tokens tab in your purchasing wallet.

Here, you’ll find a list of all upcoming projects, including those in their claim periods, like Wall Street Pepe.

Step 2: Select Wall Street Pepe

Next, you will have to scroll down to reach the “Claim Live” section of Upcoming Tokens.

Tap on the Wall Street Pepe project to start the claim process.

Step 3: View your balance(s)

Next, you will see your claimable balance plus your stakable balance.

Please note that you will not be able to claim your staked balance until 2:00 pm UTC on the 24th of February, and not in Best Wallet. Instead, you will have to go to the staking dashboard on the Wall Street Pepe website,

Step 4: Select a claim method

There will be two options to claim your tokens: “Claim and Stake” and just “Claim”.

If you choose “Claim”, you will get your Wall Street Pepe tokens in your wallet directly and you will be able to access and trade them.

Alternatively, if you choose “Claim and Stake”, you claim your $WEPE tokens but then lock them in a staking pool, meaning they will earn you staking rewards in $WEPE tokens, but you will not be able to access or trade them for at least 7 days.

If you decide to just claim your $WEPE, tap the “Claim” button

Step 5: Approve the transaction

You will then be prompted to confirm your claim transaction, including an estimation of the gas fee.

Before confirming, you will need to ensure you’ve got enough ETH to pay the gas fees in your wallet.

Please Note: This step requires paying a gas fee. On occasion, the approval transaction pop-up will say zero fees, but there are still gas fees associated. The majority of failed transactions at this step are related to insufficient crypto to pay for the gas fee.

What are gas fees?

When claiming your $WEPE tokens, you will need to pay a gas fee to process and confirm your claim transaction.

The gas fee for claiming $WEPE will be payable in ETH, the native token of Ethereum. This is because Wall Street Pepe is being launched on the Ethereum blockchain, meaning it will also be tradable on Ethereum.

Important: Gas fees often spike during periods of high network activity, which may happen during the Wall Street Pepe claim. This is because there will be many $WEPE holders trying to claim their new tokens at the same time.

Ensure your wallet has enough ETH to cover any spike in gas fees. Whilst gas fees on Ethereum are usually around $15-20 per transaction, we recommend having at least $50-100 in ETH in your wallet.

If the claiming fee seems too high, consider waiting for a less congested time to claim.

If you don’t have crypto to pay the gas fees, you can add gas ETH to your wallet by buying in-app (this may take a few hours) or depositing from another wallet or an exchange.

Step 6: Complete your $WEPE claim

Next, submit your claim transaction.

Once it's submitted to the blockchain, your claim will be processed.

Note: This process may take several minutes, especially with how large the $WEPE claim is.

Please don't submit any additional claim transactions — patience is key to receiving your new tokens.

Once your claim transaction is confirmed, you can view your new tokens by tapping the button at the bottom.

Your new Wall Street Pepe tokens should automatically show up in your wallet’s token list — if they aren't appearing, wait a minute, then refresh your token list by hitting the three dots next to your tabs and hitting "Refresh list".

If you still don’t see your new tokens, you may have to import the Wall Street Pepe token address into your wallet — don’t worry, your tokens are still yours and remain secure, just not viewable in your wallet yet.

Step 7: View your new tokens

You can now securely hold, access, and trade your Wall Street Pepe tokens in Best Wallet.

  • Stay Updated: Follow the Wall Street Pepe official X account to stay in the loop about the claim status and further project developments. Best Wallet is not responsible and does not manage Wall Street Pepe or its claim process.

  • Verify Token Details: Claim directly through Best Wallet to avoid connecting to unauthorized or scam pages.


Struggling to claim your Wall Street Pepe tokens?

First, make sure you have enough ETH in your wallet to pay the gas fee estimate when claiming. Most failed claims happen because of insufficient ETH to complete the transaction.

If for any reason your claim doesn't seem to be going through in-app, please contact our support team by emailing [email protected] or opening a ticket on Discord or our support website. Please note that during claim periods our support team is very busy, and you must add all relevant details during your first email/message for a quicker resolution.

Reminder: Nobody from Best Wallet or the Wall Street Pepe team will ever ask for your wallet’s private key or secret recovery phrase. Please don't ever share this information with anyone.
