I think Dogecoin has done a lot of good as far as a community goes and introducing people to cryptocurrencys like it did to me.
But I dont think it will ever be a successful coin as far as its design or professionalism goes etc, it will always be around, but probably just as a tipping currency, charity etc. I dont see it getting any higher than 1 cent, but i think its safe to say that its here to stay!
Ive sold all the doge i had and will invest it in other currencies such as NXT, blackcoin, darkcoin, megacoin etc, these coins do have the prospect of reaching $1 or more, and darkcoin already has done so.

So i wouldnt go as far to say that dogecoin is bad, but it serves its purpose for what it was designed, and thats good for cryptocurrency as a whole, but dont expect to get rich from it, obviously you want to look at something that has alot of work gone into it.
Lots of coins do have a professional approach, but most are rebranded litecoin/bitcoin clones with no real design.

Im looking at coins where the developers have thought outside the square and redesigned things from the ground up, thats why NXT is so appealing to me even if people are complaining about the distribution.

The coin is based on a meme, it can't attract intelligent professionals to it.

Don't take this to be anything personal.. But this coming from someone who runs a casino? What "intelligent professional" plays games with his money- Games that are rigged for him to lose a majority of the time? You profit off the unintelligent every day. You see- People don't need to be geniuses to make, and have money. Maybe we have a different understanding of "intelligent" and what role that plays in an economy. (Again, nothing personal, just making an observation, and perhaps a bit of commentary on the ridiculousness of the above quote).

If it attracts the 18-35 crowd- The "intelligent professionals" will quickly take notice. Hell, if it attracts people at first, and converts them all to BTC, and Doge dies.. just as well, right? Unless they are stupid (as in, pay literally zero attention to the risks, and bet more than they can), they've lost very little, and have a better understanding of what they are doing before making large BTC transactions

I just don't get why there's an argument happening at all. Doge has brought thousands of people to crypto, and will continue to. BTC owners should absolutely be thrilled about Dogecoin. Obviously, Doge could never be considered a "threat" to Bitcoin. They aren't after the same market. If you "invest" in Dogecoin- You're probably pretty stupid. It's not designed to inflate. It's designed to be spent- investing a significant amount of money hoping for inflation is silly. Doge will be lucky to ever hit a penny. Bitcoiners should praise Doge as an awesome, inexpensive way to get your feet wet in the digital currency world, and hope that those Dogecoiners eventually "graduate", if you will, and buy some Bitcoin.

If you are too "professional", or too "mature" to have a little fun on the internet (or in life, for that matter), while still pursuing your end goal.. Well, I feel bad for you.

edit: Things like Dark Wallet may bring those "intelligent professionals" to Bitcoin, et al. Darkmarkets,  Drugs, weapons, murder for hire- Now that's an image booster! The exact things that have sown such public mistrust, and skepticism to Bitcoin are now being promoted, and touted as victories. We're begging governments to view Bitcoin, and all digital currency as nothing more than drugs and money laundering.



I just started crypto currency about 6 months ago, having read your post I got to say I agree with you 100%. I am currently mining doge in order to trade up to BTC. Simply because I don't want to make any monetary investments into any crypto just yet.

I think doge will never be taken seriously. I am a stoke broker and I can't imagine trying to get some big fish investors interested on a coin with a dog on it. Now, that being said, I think you made a great point by saying that doge will help BTC by getting rid of the social stigma the bitcoin is being use to promote illicit activities, mainly because that is the reason I did not support crypto currency like BTC when it first started growing years ago.

In my perspective, Dogecoin's community is a bit better than Bitcoin's. For some reason, most of them agree on the same things. Even if it's broken grammar, English, or sense all together, you can't help but love them.

And I'm not even being sarcastic, or joking. You can't hate them.

Yeah, they can.

Those who fear something will be taken from them.

Problem is, Dogecoin takes nothing away from any other coin but they are too fearful and ignorant to realise that.

Doge will not help BTC that is nonsense.. for all the reasons i have repeated non stop..... thinking that is simply ridiculous !
On the contrary it has done damage and i have said i can prove it and shown you all simply by opening your eyes.. Doge is crypto cancer killing our scene !
Should i go screen-cap the general non-crypto public's response to it ? So i can show you all your full of shit ?

it's a shitty scrypt clone coin that offers nothing but a fake bag holder community interested in dumping for profit at some point.
and it was a clone put out far after a few hundred were released before it making it like the 343rd shitty pissy scrypt clone.. with new name / icon.

Bag holders making pitiful excuses .... as ALWAYS

oh oh ohhh i have <insert name> scrypt clone.. it's the Bitcoin Killer and will take over the worldz !!1111 LIEKOMFGBBQ !!!ONE

gimme a god damn break

bump my topic with valid assertions and serious points i brought more guys.. keep them dummy shell accounts warm lol
if you we're smart you'd shut up because you know every single word i have said beating this coin into the dirt is spot on laser like accurate !
bump it more.. i love handing out shovels ..i won't run out any time soon Wink

Doge has done more to attract new people kids to crypto currency than any other coin outside of bitcoin itself.

Kids like dogs. Everyone knows that...

Disney and movies/cartoons for kids oten use dogs (Beethoven, 101 dalmations, Scooby-Doo, The Shaggy Dog, Benji, Lassie etc.). The animals adopted in the commercials are common and play the role of children’s company.

That's why it's popular.

Btw, I don't think focusing on a community of kids is good in business...
