History of $DOGE

Dogecoin ($DOGE ) began as a joke in 2013, inspired by the popular "Doge" meme. Created by Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer, it aimed to satirize the hype surrounding cryptocurrencies. Surprisingly, it gained a dedicated community and widespread popularity for its friendly, meme-driven culture. Despite initially being seen as a meme coin with little utility, Dogecoin has since found acceptance as a tipping currency and gained attention from celebrities and influencers. Its price surged in 2021, fueled by social media enthusiasm and Elon Musk's endorsements, reflecting its unpredictable but enduring presence in the crypto market.
