Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency that started as a joke but quickly turned into an internet phenomenon. It all began in 2013, when the famous "Doge" meme, featuring a Shiba Inu with comic sans captions, was everywhere online. Inspired by this meme, Jackson Palmer, a product manager, bought the domain Dogecoin.com. Billy Markus, a software engineer, joined him, and they launched Dogecoin using Litecoin’s code.
Here are the basics of Dogecoin:
- Unlimited Supply: Unlike Bitcoin, there’s no cap on how many Dogecoins can be mined.
- Scrypt Algorithm: This comes from Litecoin and allows for faster mining.
- Proof of Work: Like Bitcoin, Dogecoin is mined using computational power.
However, when the crypto market crashed in 2018, Dogecoin’s value plummeted to less than $0.002. But memes never die! Dogecoin stayed alive, thanks to internet culture and occasional tweets from Elon Musk.
Recently, the market madness saw Dogecoin surge again, peaking at $0.082 in early 2021. People started dreaming of pumping it to $1.
In short, Dogecoin is the fun, meme-driven cryptocurrency you thought it was. While it may not have the financial depth of Bitcoin, its popularity proves that the internet loves a good inside joke.
If you're feeling adventurous (or reckless), you can buy Dogecoin on Robinhood.
