What does the “PepeJAM” meme mean?

Where does the “PepeJAM” meme come from?

The precise origin of this emote remains unclear. Research does not identify a specific creator or original source video. The emote circulated within Twitch communities around 2018. It was added to DiscordEmoji on January 11, 2018, which proves distribution but not creation. A YouTube video by Livestream Compilation, posted on November 18, 2018, features the emote without confirming its first appearance. The character Pepe originates from Matt Furie's comic Boy’s Club (2005), but this work is unrelated to the specific design of PepeJAM. Its popularity grew via extensions like BetterTTV before spreading to Discord.
