Thanks Hasar, great post! I can't think of a better place to inform other Alt Coin nerds of Interesting YouTube news than using an "Alternatie Cryptocurrencies"  forum like this!!

I see why the alt-section needs to be deleted now.

This is becoming a propaganda forum

It is gaining popularity and is being mentioned on a lot of media sources now. Joe Rogans podcast mentioned dogecoins in an interview with Andreas Antonopoulos last week multiple times. If the community behind it keeps tipping people with the dogecoins in mass and spreading the knowledge of what a cryptocurrency is it might get a lot of people interested through word of mouth. If anything a lot of people are trying to drive the prices temporally down to benefit by slandering all the good news.

I think I was one of the first 50 people on the planet to mine Doges.  It was much cooler before it became the official currency of vegans, lesbians, teenage girls, Reddit users, Apple cultists, and Starbucks weirdos.  For truth and justice, I will take back the Doge legacy.

I used to like it doge, but it's getting on my nerves now. It has the potential to change from the most loving coin to the most hated coin.

It will never reach that. Sorry, but you're not going to become a millionaire. Just look at the market cap. There's billions of coins.

There are a lot of dogecoins with a lot more still to come.  It has attracted tremendous infrastructure and looks like it may be a survivor of this most recent altcoin flood.  However, reRaise has a good point, it seems to have an increased risk of flaming out (e.g. if the dump back to 20 satoshis ever comes) and becoming the Britney Spears of coins.

Dafuck is this bullshit? Rival? If there were a Bitcoin rival then it would be most likely Litecoin. Not some joke coin with almost no value or new/useful features.

dogecoin mined 6.5% of total supply (12B) in 3 days. It was introduced to counter quarkcoin momentum. Unfortunately dogecoin has hooked alot of newbies that thought buying a million coins for 1 BTC is a good deal. Clearest scam coin to date :(
