$Dogecoin (DOGE)
Launched: 2013
Founders: Billy Markus & Jackson Palmer
Description: The first-ever meme coin, created as a joke based on the "Doge" meme. Despite its humorous origins, it gained real-world utility and massive popularity due to endorsements from figures like Elon Musk. Dogecoin uses the Proof-of-Work mechanism, similar to Bitcoin but with lower transaction fees.
#Shiba Inu (SHIB)
Launched: 2020
Founder: Anonymous (Ryoshi)
Description: Known as the "Dogecoin killer," SHIB operates on the Ethereum blockchain. It offers a decentralized ecosystem, including ShibaSwap, NFTs, and the Shibarium Layer-2 network. A significant portion of SHIB’s supply was sent to Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, who burned most of it.
#Pepe Coin (PEPE)
Launched: 2023
Founder: Unknown
Description: Inspired by the internet-famous Pepe the Frog meme, PEPE is a deflationary token with an ambitious community-driven roadmap. It saw rapid growth in 2023, benefiting from meme coin hype and limited token supply. Unlike DOGE and SHIB, PEPE lacks extensive utility but thrives on community momentum.
