📖The story of Dogecoin $DOGE and how it transformed from a joke to a real payment method and one of the largest cryptocurrencies by market value.

⌛️In 2013, two programmers (Billy Markus) from IBM and (Jackson Palmer) from Adobe decided to create a digital currency that represents the crypto market boom.

🎯Their goal was not to build technology or a project, the subject was just entertainment and joking with the tech community.

💥But by chance

Dogecoin found an audience that loves simplicity, speed, and a playful spirit.

💥And due to its huge popularity, the currency started to gain a strong following. Even Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, tweeted sarcastically about it… turning it into (the people's currency)

⚙️ How do Dogecoin transactions work?

⬅️Dogecoin relies on a proof-of-work (PoW) technology like Bitcoin, but using the Scrypt algorithm which makes it faster and less energy-consuming.

⬅️Time to create a new block: approximately every one minute, compared to 10 minutes in Bitcoin.

⬅️Transaction fees: very low ⬅️suitable for small payments.

💳 Where is Dogecoin used today? The project has evolved and is now used👇

✅Daily payments:

In a number of online stores, such as:

•Tesla (for some products)

•Dallas Mavericks (tickets and merchandise)

•Newegg (electronics website)

✅Donations and charity work:

•In 2014, the currency community contributed to funding the Jamaican bobsled team to participate in the Olympics.

•Supported charitable initiatives in Kenya and provided clean water wells.

✅Tipping and encouragement online:

•Dogecoin is frequently used on platforms like Reddit as a type of tip for good content, thanks to its simple fees and ease of sending.

🚀 What distinguishes Dogecoin from others?

•It has no maximum supply (unlike Bitcoin), making it inflationary.

•It relies on community support, but it has succeeded in proving its utility in everyday life.

⬅️Dogecoin started as a joke… but today it is one of the most used currencies in reality.

Sometimes in the world of cryptocurrencies, you don't need complexity to succeed. You just need a supportive audience…

Or just one tweet from Elon Musk is enough😅
