Will Dogecoin ever be more than a joke?

[kovand11]

If the hype stays long, and doge gets more functions, it could be a serious coin.

Dogecoin has a chance to survive because it's a joke

[Moebius327]

It will always be a joke, but this doesn't mean you can't make money during the hype.

[sevenyears26]

It may or may not. The issue I see with it is the insane amount of coins in existence already

[jongameson]

serious coin

                        much woof

pump & dump coin

[zuerdemon]

Just another alternative coin, worth mining only if most profitable to mine with my GPU

[Makal]

Dogecoin is right now more than a joke!

[carlomagno]

Dogecoin is not a joke!

To me it's already no joke. Was one of the early miners. Was able to get 1 000 000 Doges before the difficulty became unbearable. To a poor old miner like myself this is striking gold! Sold off 900k when the first peak came, never been this rich in my life. Holding 100k Doge just in case it tenfolds it's value, again.

My buddy asked me if I was mining them the other day.  I literally had no clue what he was asking at first.  I responded with WoW?  Played for years and we played Xbox so I thought maybe he started.  He linked me some info and yeah I didn't see it as a worth while use of GPU or CPU on spare boxes that I'm turning into mining servers.

The logo still cracks me up though.

Dogecoin has been well received by the community, but it's just the name 'doge' I don't like. Even though recent stats shows lots of potential I can't seem to get over the name.

Will DOGEcoin ever be more than a joke? Highly unlikely imho. But, stranger things have been afoot for quite sometime.

A pfffffft, the dev can handle script kiddies like this blindfolded. Besides not enough coins are even in circulation yet for this to work. I do hope people try to come up with things like this though, if they manage to break a coin and it's devs can't fix it, the coin deserves to die. Cryptocoinworld is survival of the fittest in it's finest.

Doge will survive, I guess. Just because it is based on a meme, the hype is big. We'll see, but I'm in! 

[yatsey87]

I think a better question is will altcoins ever be more than a joke?

[koshgel]

Unprecedented energy for an altcoin.  People that never heard of cryptocurrency have heard of dogecoin.  Joke or not it is helping people learn about cryptocurrency. 

[hmachado]

Its looking good so far

There has been a lot of controversy over dogecoin since it came out. Whatever you do, don't use dogewallet. In fact, with any crypo currency, don't use an online wallet to hold your funds. Additional controversy over doge will either run it into the ground or send it to the moon. I personally hope it sends it into the ground. Doge seems to be just another flash in the pan coin. If it ends up becoming huge I think it will adversely effect the entire crypto currency market. Normal people just can't take a name like "doge" seriously, especially when people who have never seen the term think it is "dodge" coin.
