Dogecoin isnt even close to being "dead".
The biggest issue for most alt coins is the economy, which still needs more "infrastructure". This includes a "coinbase"-like service for doge, (hopefully Moolah gets that going) and also a doge ATM would help a lot more. I currently think that voidspace and other applications that can integrate dogecoin will help as well.
Maybe more API for dogecoin would be great too

It has a "coinbase" like service for a long time already
