Probably this week's best internet cryptocurrency.
- DannoHung 13y agoWhether you think Doge is funny-money or not (I think it is), the thing I like about it is that it's changing hands (even if it's just for tipping people for making funny comments) and not really being hoarded for value. At least not yet. Hopefully not ever.

- kale 13y agoMaybe a casual usage currency would compliment the more serious (and polarizing) BTC or LTC. There were comedy coins before though, I suppose the meme is the only reason Doge has taken off.

- mvleming 13y agoI just laughed out loud. Thanks!
- mcantelon 13y agoThere's never been a coin that's been adopted anywhere nearly as quickly (which isn't to say it won't happen again, but it's definitely unusually successful).
