Dogecoin (DOGE) was created in 2013 as a way to poke fun at the crypto industry; now it’s one of the world’s leading cryptocurrencies. It takes its name from a popular meme with Shiba Inu dog that quickly built up a lively community of enthusiasts. DOGE was created by Jackson Palmer in 2013 and has passeda long way since that time, briefly hitting a market cap of $9 billion during its early 2021 price surge. Jackson simply sent out a tweet where he wrote that he was investing in Dogecoin.

What’s so special about it?
-Fast transactions and low transaction fees
-Unlimited supply
- Big community

Most people get into the crypto world in order to make profitable investments. They hope that if they hang onto certain tokens long enough, they will manage to sell them for a profit a little bit later. But the situation with Dogecoin is different. Since the token supply is high and the price is low, it’s not attractive to investors who are looking for cryptocurrency to hold onto. The result is a highly liquid, free-flowing peer-to-peer digital currency. The main use of Dogecoin is as an online tipping system. This means that if you like what someone posted in the Dogecoin Reddit community, you can throw them some Dogecoins. It’s part of what gives the community its friendly reputation.

Whether Dogecoin is here to stay — or whether it’s destined to burn as it did after its 2018 peak — is open to debate. But, as the Dogecoin community says, in the end one thing is immutable: 1 DOGE = 1 DOGE.
