For those who do not know, Dogecoin (DOGE) saw more liquidations than Bitcoin (BTC) at one point on April 24. This shows there is a significantly high demand for trading the meme cryptocurrency even as Bitcoin and Ether (ETH) struggle to recover.
https://cointelegraph.com/news/new-altcoin-era-dogecoin-liquidations-briefly-surpass-bitcoinI think the era of altcoins is coming. It's too easy to make a cryptocurrency by ERC20 such as BNB, USDT, VeChain or Snapbots,... You can find thousands of coins so far. Listing it on Uniswap, and you'll be rich! Not really simple like that but even you can do it. This time won't last long. But a lot of new crypto millionaires will emerge during this period.
Not sure DOGE is really a 'meme' maybe Musk marketed as such through his venue and personality.
But Doge goes back 8 years, back in the day when only a few 100 were cloning btc source, today its 9,000, and said to now double yearly; DOGE is really interest having no limit. BTC likes to boast about 21M but that is really bullshit, we're talking about software here, the CCP controls the miners, what SW they running, it would take minutes to bump up the MAX on BTC, and given there are 100's of BTC clones, its not like there really is a limit. So DOGE did a smart thing, they have no limit, counter-intuitive, but allows the price to stay low forever while they take the worlds CAPATILIZATION. Brilliant.
DOGE was clearly well thought out, and surprisingly, even though its risen 450% the past month, it seems to have the nodes to support transactions, albeit I have heard the fee is now $1, note trading at 0.28
The alt-coin is already here, during this time BITCOIN went down -25% April 11->April 25, most of the alt-privacy coins saw +25%/day, Horizen has sky-rocketed a zSnark coin with real privacy, and 10's of 1,000's of full-nodes that are actually paid to host a node, why can't btc do this?
BTC is now a dinosaur; BTC-CORE has refused to address 1,000's of complaints, and day of reckoning is upon us. Crypto is not dead, its just evolving.
BTC had every chance to create BTC2.0, but they failed, they failed because they became obsessed with 'get rich quick' and GOV compliance, an begat an over priced shit coin with no future.
ETH has also held, you all know that ETH is now back to the ATH, while BTC is still down -20%
Reality is a bitch, when you live in a virtual fantasy world.
Any REAL PRIVACY COIN of MONERO level security well do fine in the future, if BTC doesn't embrace real privacy, they're dead.
Just give people the option, like Zcash does you have a choice to be public, or private on your transaction, but BTC doesn't give a choice, because they sold out to US-GOV
