There is a topic about "Why is Diamond - DMD so hot?" few days ago. Simple answer: many people likes it (because of any reason)

Because its a funny, silly coin

Huge numbers mean funny?
The max money is same as infinitecoin, but who thinks infinitecoin is funny?

I am not tring to argue, I just don't understand why.

Yeah, this is going to get old realllllly fast.. then the coin will likely die..

Just a marketing gimmick to appeal to the children who think that if they buy some, they are part of an exclusive 'inside joke club' that only the most modern, ironic, and wittiest of us can understand and appreciate

Even the dev is probably somewhat surprised this coin has taken off as much as it has, it was probably meant as more of a joke, turns out there are a lot more zombie drones than he thought.. free money everywhere up in here

Why not?
No other coin is 'such wow'.  

[Fraxinus]

People just want to find the next big thing.
And if enough ppl work with it, it will succeed no matter what the background of the coin is.

Also look at all the other copycats that are online and still are succeeding, why wouldn't doge?
I read earlier because i asked the same thing that the hashing speed of the doge is in the top 10 of all the coins out there.

The numbers have nothing to do with it.
Do some god damn research.

Well the Wow Doge meme itself has started to get super popular again so when the coin came out and was mentioned on Reddit and 4Chan all the meme lovers wanted to get in on the ground floor and become rich. Honestly I don't really see the longevity in Doge (still mining it though) but if there is one thing I learned it is to never underestimate the power of teenagers and what they like. We are talking about people that still laugh at the words "fart" and "penis". If we can make a little coin off of their amusement then I say go for it

Next I predict the HalfLife3ConfirmedCoin will be announced.

In the last two days I've made about .06 BTC by selling Doge mined off my Radeon 7950. Most profitable mining ever?

Not old at all. It's hilarious. This is the perfect coin for a select market. You just happen to not be in that market. That's ok. I don't like lobster. That doesn't mean lobster is shitty food.

It has a niche. If it's not for you, then, well, it's not for you. Don't buy it.

But if you do want to buy, I have a few thousand that I'll sell to you for around 0.01 BTC each. I don't care if you don't buy. I like my DOGE coins. I have given them value. If you don't share that value, that's fine. Others do.

Not everyone is in every market for every thing.
