🚨History Behind Dogecoin Revealed As 14th Anniversary Arrives🚨
Popular Dogecoin wallet MyDoge has published a post on the Twitter/X social media platform to share that today is the 14th anniversary of when the history of the original meme cryptocurrency DOGE started, even before the coin was created and launched in 2013.
The history of DOGE, SHIB and several other meme cryptocurrencies started on February 13 - 14 years ago.14th anniversary of Kabosu appearing online
@MyDogeOfficial tweeted that the Dogecoin community is celebrating the 14th anniversary of the iconic meme Shiba Inu dog’s, Kabosu, first appearance on the Internet after her photos were uploaded by her owner Atsuko Sato (@kabosumama) via Facebook with a caption that said "Such fun...wow."
No news has been spread about Kabosu since December 2022. Back then, the dog was in a very serious health condition. In that year, she had also turned 17, outliving average Shiba Inus – their average lifespan constitutes between 10 and 15 years.
As for another viral Shiba Inu dog that stood behind Internet memes,“Cheems”, it made headlines with sad news. This popular dog passed away in late August last year.
In 2013, two software makers, Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer, created the meme cryptocurrency Dogecoin. The role of Markus seems bigger here, since it was actually he who created the code for DOGE within a couple of hours at home. For both creators DOGE was a side-project they made as a parody on Bitcoin. Markus has extended this joke by picking a Twitter name “Shibetoshi Nakamoto”, which he still uses on social media.
Creators not making money on Dogecoin
Even though, over the past few years, Dogecoin’s popularity rose largely thanks to Elon Musk and the overall love for memes spread online, Billy Markus has several times tweeted that he did not make not only a fortune but no money at all on Dogecoin.
Both Markus and Palmer quit the project almost immediately after launching it, not taking it seriously. Now, the meme coin is run by Dogecoin Foundation.
