Dogecoin is receiving attention today, as it is an important day for the leading meme coin. With the level of attention it is likely to receive today, DOGE could experience a significant price increase.

Dogecoin turns 11 years old today. This meme coin was launched by Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer on December 6, 2013. DOGE was created as a 'joke' and a parody of Bitcoin but has become one of the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. Meanwhile, Dogecoin is only surpassed by the second largest proof-of-work blockchain by market cap.
