Pepe Heimer Introduces AI-powered Yield Optimization and Launches PEHEM Token Presale
Pepe Heimer is a new memecoin integrating powerful AI tools with DeFi to provide real utility and solve many of the problems in the crypto landscape. New York, NY, May 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pepe Heimer, a new memecoin merging the prevalent meme culture with real utility, officially launched with a new approach to integrate AI-powered DeFi tools for yield optimization. The project seeks to solve real problems in decentralized finance with innovative and powerful products. Moreover, the $PEHEM presale is currently live on the Pepe Heimer official website, projected to reach $100K, and aiming to build support for the project's early development stages. Pepe Heimer is a Layer-2 ecosystem driven by artificial intelligence. Unlike other memecoins, Pepe Heimer bridges entertainment and infrastructure through a robust suite of DeFi tools. Its unique, character-driven brand is inspired by Pepe the Frog and the legacy of J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb. More importantly, Pepe Heimer is on a mission to provide real utility in a DeFi landscape overcrowded by useless and short-lived initiatives. Pepe Heimer is launching its own Ethereum Layer 2 chain, focusing on speed, efficiency, and scalability. This ecosystem will grow to include DEX, Bridge, and zk-Rollups features supporting rapid transactions, cross-chain liquidity movements, and low fees. Pepe Heimer lowers the entry barrier and gives smaller retail investors and active DeFi users access to farming, trading, and staking opportunities without the usual friction. Fueling this high-performance platform is the Pepe Heimer token, $PEHEM, with a total supply of 19,450,000,000 tokens distributed as follows: - Presale - 40%- Staking and community - 33%- Liquidity - 12%- Marketing - 10%- L2 Inventory - 5% The $PEHEM presale is live and running. Pepe Heimer allocated a significant portion of $PEHEM to the presale to ensure enough liquidity and participation, and it worked. The event already raised $23,485.741 in USDT out of the $50,000 goal and it's projected to reach $100k. Currently, 1 $PEHEM is selling at $0.0001803, providing an excellent opportunity for memecoin enthusiasts to onboard the project in its early days.

Doomsday Clock ticks one second closer to midnight: How doomed are we?
The Earth is moving closer to destruction and we've never been closer to our collective demise. Hope you're having a cracking day so far. The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists advanced its famous Doomsday Clock to 89 seconds till midnight, the closest it has ever been. The organisation J. Robert Oppenheimer co-founded in 1945 made the annual announcement — which rates how close humanity is from ending — citing threats that include climate change, proliferation of nuclear weapons, instability in the Middle East, the threat of pandemics and incorporation of artificial intelligence in military operations. The clock had stood at 90 seconds to midnight for the past two years and 'when you are at this precipice, the one thing you don't want to do is take a step forward,' said Daniel Holz, chair of the group's science and security board. But a step forward was taken... Holz said the latest move was "a warning to all world leaders". "Because the world is already perilously close to the precipice, a move of even a single second should be taken as an indication of extreme danger and an unmistakable warning that every second of delay in reversing course increases the probability of global disaster." The group warned that the continuing war in Ukraine "could become nuclear at any moment because of a rash decision or through accident or miscalculation". "Conflict in the Middle East threatens to spiral out of control into a wider war without warning," they added, also citing that "the long-term prognosis for the world's attempts to deal with climate change remains poor, as most governments fail to enact the financing and policy initiatives necessary to halt global warming." It also warned that "an array of other disruptive technologies advanced last year in ways that make the world more dangerous". "Systems that incorporate artificial intelligence in military targeting have been used in Ukraine and the Middle East, and several countries are moving to integrate artificial intelligence into their militaries." The organisation stressed that all these dangers "are greatly exacerbated by a potent threat multiplier: the spread of misinformation, disinformation and conspiracy theories that degrade the communication ecosystem and increasingly blur the line between truth and falsehood". The group said the clock could be turned back if leaders and nations worked together to address these existential risks, adding that the US, China and Russia "have the prime responsibility to pull the world back from the brink". What is the Doomsday Clock? The answer to this question goes back to the foundation of The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists. The organisation was established in 1945 by scientists including J. Robert Oppenheimer and Albert Einstein. They had seen the devastating effects of nuclear weapons two years earlier, at the end of World War II, on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They wanted to warn the public and put pressure on world leaders to make sure nuclear weapons were never used again. The group devised the Doomsday Clock in 1947, as a way to symbolize how close and likely humanity is to catastrophe from man-made threats. The minute hand would shift in response to changing world events, with midnight representing complete annihilation. The clock was originally a design for a magazine cover, drawn by artist Martyl Langsdorf, who was married to a physicist, Alexander Langsdorf, who worked on the Manhattan Project while at the University of Chicago. The design was reimagined in 2007 by graphic designer Michael Bierut. The initial setting of the metaphorical clock was seven minutes to midnight, and ever since 1947, we've been moving closer toward extinction. Each year, the clock's new time position is announced in late January by the Bulletin's Science and Security Board. This is a group of the world's most prominent scientists and experts, with diverse backgrounds. They meet twice a year to discuss events, policies and trends, to better consult with colleagues across a range of disciplines, and seek the views of the Bulletin's Board of Sponsors, which includes multiple Nobel laureates. According to the group's website, their mission is to 'gather a diverse array of the most informed and influential voices tracking man-made threats' in order to inform the public and the world at large. The Chicago-based nonprofit also stresses that the Doomsday Clock is meant as a call to action and a warning to politicians that danger is coming but it is within their power to do something about it. The Bulletin is also keen to stress that the clock is not meant as a prediction of the future but an indication of where we are now. On its website, it likens itself to a 'doctor making a diagnosis'. And in case you were wondering, the actual physical Doomsday Clock is located at the Bulletin offices in the lobby of the Keller Center, home to the University of Chicago Harris School of Public Policy. How doomed are we in 2025? Very. The hands of the clock have moved 25 times since its inception, and we've never been so close to our demise. Again, hope you're having a smashing day. The clock first moved closer to midnight in 1949, following the first Soviet nuclear test, which officially started the nuclear arms race. A notable change happened in 1953 when the US tested its first thermonuclear device in as part of Operation Ivy. This remained the clock's closest approach to midnight (tied in 2018) until 2020, when we moved from minutes to seconds. That year, it was cited that the failure of world leaders to deal with the increased threats of nuclear war, such as the end of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF) between the US and Russia as well as increased tensions between the US and Iran made the time move from 2 minutes to 100 seconds to midnight. Add the continued neglect of climate change, which led The Bulletin to conclude that the issues causing the 2020 adjustment were "the most dangerous situation that humanity has ever faced." Three years later, we shaved off another 10 seconds, due largely to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, North Korea resuming its nuclear rhetoric, the continuing threats posed by the climate crisis, and the breakdown of global norms and institutions set up to mitigate risks associated with advancing technologies and biological threats such as COVID-19. In 2024, the clock remained set at 90 seconds to midnight and while no change was mildly comforting, scientists warned that it was not an indication of stability. What's the farthest we've been to nuclear Armageddon? The 90s were pretty sweet – the music was great, 1999 remains a damn fine year for cinema, and those years represented some doomsday progress. Years like 1990 and 1995 saw humanity in the double digits (10 and 14 minutes, respectively). The fall of the Berlin Wall and the Iron Curtain, along with the reunification of Germany, meant that the Cold War was nearing an end. 1991 represents our least panicky year, with a whopping 17 minutes to midnight, the farthest from midnight the Clock has been since its inception. This was due in part to the US and the Soviet Union signing the first Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, and the dissolution of the Soviet Union. As for the aforementioned 1995, we may have lost 3 minutes compared to 1991, but a full quarter of an hour away from Armageddon feels comforting compared to our current 90 seconds. The Doomsday Clock in pop culture The metaphor of the Doomsday Clock has seeped into popular culture over the years. From the comic books to music, and TV series and feature films, there are chances you've come across the image before. Some of the earliest mentions in music were in a 1980 single by Wah! Heat, 'Seven Minutes to Midnight', followed by the Iron Maiden song '2 Minutes to Midnight' four years later. Much later on, Linkin Park named their 2007 album 'Minutes To Midnight', in reference to the Doomsday Clock. Their music video for 'Shadow of the Day' represents the Doomsday Clock as an actual clock with it reaching midnight at the end of the video. The clock has been namechecked in literature more than once, famously in Stephen King's 1987 novel "The Tommyknockers", in which King wrote, as an homage to The Bulletin's work: 'The Mideast was getting ready to explode again, and if there was shooting this time, some of it might be nuclear. The Union of Concerned Scientists, those happy folks who kept the Black Clock, had advanced the hands to two minutes to nuclear midnight yesterday, the paper reported.' It's also hard to ignore the recurring visual theme of the Doomsday Clock in Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons's seminal "Watchmen" graphic novel series (1986–87), its 2009 film adaptation, as well as its 2019 television miniseries sequel. The clock is everywhere in the source material and its adaptations, an ominous reminder of humanity's inescapable fate. Other famous examples in popular culture include two doctors. Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, Stanley Kubrick's 1964 satirical masterpiece, and Doctor Who. The good Herr Doktor references the clock, and the whole narrative revolves around the doomsday machine MacGuffin, which is supposed to be a nuclear deterrent. Doomsday devices were incredibly present in literature and art throughout the 20th century, due to the advances in science and technology that made world destruction a credible scenario. The term "doomsday machine" is attested from 1960, but it's Strangelove who made it enter common parlance. As for everyone's favourite timelord, the title of the 1982 Doctor Who episode "Four to Doomsday" references the Doomsday Clock, and in the 2017 episode "The Pyramid at the End of the World", the Monks changed every clock in the world to three minutes to midnight as a warning about what will happen if humanity does not accept their help. Good luck to you, dear reader, and see you next year for another time change. Hopefully we'll move backwards this time, as we can ill afford to lose more seconds.

Symbolic 'Doomsday Clock' moves forward to 89 seconds to midnight
Jan. 28 (UPI) -- Due to "deeply concerning" world trends, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists said its "Doomsday Clock" is now 89 seconds to midnight. On Tuesday, the bulletin stated it is "the closest" the clock "has ever been to catastrophe" as it moved one second forward from 90 seconds to midnight at this time in 2024. The group of atomic scientists said that in setting the clock one second closer to midnight, "we send a stark signal" that because the global community is "perilously close" as it is to a catastrophic precipice, a move of even a single second "should be taken as an indication of extreme danger and an unmistakable warning that every second of delay in reversing course increases the probability of global disaster," the release stated. "Trends that have deeply concerned the Science and Security Board continued and despite unmistakable signs of danger, national leaders and their societies have failed to do what is needed to change course," the bulletin said. It was revealed in Washington after a deliberation by the organization's Security Board and Board of Sponsors which include the likes of nine Nobel Laureates. Citing "ominous" trends in 2023 last year in January, it noted the symbolic clock at the time remained at 90 seconds before midnight. Created in 1947 by Albert Einstein and J. Robert Oppenheimer, the "Doomsday Clock" is known to be a public warning of the threat posed by nuclear weapons and other outside factors that signal how close humanity is to a potential global catastrophe with manmade technology. It pointed to a myriad of issues like misinformation and disinformation and conspiracy theories that "degrade the communication ecosystem and increasingly blur the line between truth and falsehood." And growing effects of global climate change, technological advancements like artificial intelligence, tense diplomatic relations and escalating war between Russia, Ukraine and in the Middle East "threatens to spiral out of control into a wider war without warning." It added global greenhouse gas emissions driving climate change continued to rise but that its long-term prognosis "remains poor" as growth in the solar and wind energy sector has been "impressive but remains insufficient to stabilize the climate." Meanwhile, extreme weather events or a number of floods, tropical cyclones, heat waves, drought and wildfires have "affected every continent." "Judging from recent electoral campaigns, climate change is viewed as a low priority in the United States and many other countries," according to the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. President Donald Trump recently ordered the United States to exit the World Health Organization as one of its nearly 200 member nations and halted federal funding to a number of critical health-related areas. "In the biological arena, emerging and re-emerging diseases continue to threaten the economy, society and security of the world," officials noted. Pointing to a "battered information landscape," the group said it's "producing leaders who discount science and endeavor to suppress free speech and human rights," which it added compromises fact-based public discussions "that are required to combat the enormous threats facing the world." The "fervent hope" of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is for leaders to "recognize the world's existential predicament." They called for "bold action" to reduce what experts claim are existing threats posed by nuclear weapons, climate change, and the "potential misuse of biological science and a variety of emerging technologies."
