Crazy world. Bitcoin down, Doge Up

[dataispower]

In my opinion it is more probable for Dogecoin to gain half of bitcoin market cap, than for bitcoin to show the same amount of growth in the same period of time.

“The goal for the currency is to keep approximately 100 billion coins in circulation - thus after 100 billion Dogecoins are created, rewards will continue at 10k each block. This will help maintain mining and stabilize the number of coins in circulation (considering lost wallets and various other ways coins may be destroyed) at 100 billion.”

Brand:
Dogecoin is a currency that was born on the internet and it is a part of the internet culture.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doge_%28meme%29

Dogecoin started as a joke. Absurdity and fun kept dogecoin in the top 10 cryptocurrencies in the “hyperinflation” phase. Community that remains passionate and doesn’t abandon the coin under high selling pressure from mining pools is a rare thing to find.

The culture is the main reason why many people prefer dogecoin over others, and it also what attracts a broader demographic that wouldn’t touch cryptocurrency otherwise.

Dogecoin is considered a beginner’s coin because of how easy and fun it is to use it.

its fundamentals were so bad (and still are). Now I'm kind of happy it is rising. At least, the network is quite secure because of merged mining etc.

Can you explain why you think the fundamentals are bad?

IMO merged mining is the only good thing. Unfortunately, I think current scryptASIC-miners won't be doge holders...  Doge is bitcoin copy for kids.

Maybe doge is bubble right now

It doesn't matter, mining pools were dumping doge before.

One thing to be very aware of when it comes to DOGE: Liquidity - it does not have any.

Sure, the price may be X but if you want to actually sell more than pocket change then you will quickly learn that what you are actually able to sell it for is X minus 10-20%.

BTC is king because it has liquidity, if you want to buy or sell $100.000 worth then you can do so without much slippage. Try buying or selling the same amounts worth in any altcoin and you'll find that you can't without significantly moving the market. This is why DOGE price movements do not impress me.

Also.. look at #dogecoin on IRC. "OMG THERE IS A 10 BTC WALL" they say.. as if 10 BTC is any amount worth caring about.

You're talking about the 100k walls on crypst as pocket change?  Interesting.

[Unbelive]

With paypal adopting Doge it will get huge. But that still dont change fast that is a crapcoin.

[Elwar]

[djokica]
