Price history on CoinedUp: http://doge.yottabyte.nu/
Dogecoin has a surprising momentum to it. I'm curious what role it will play once the initial novelty wears off. There are many more Doge than Bitcoin or Litecoin, so a single Doge will never be unattainable. It has a long way to go to even reach parity with the penny.
It's interesting though, how it's pretty much an exact clone of bitcoin yet has such a different value. The value doesn't come from the thing itself, it's how many people are using it.
Dogecoins do have some minor value though as there is a subreddit of people willing to perform petty tasks in exchange for them.
To their credit though, they based it off of Litecoin... making it a fork of a fork.
Either I have no sense of humor, or we aren't going to be seeing October 1993 any time soon. Can't wait for "Latvian Potato Coin" to appear in the future.
Clearly you are unfamiliar with the basic properties of Internet memes. :P
Now that I think about it, that statement was asinine. I'm quite familiar with 4chan, Something Awful and Reddit. Never underestimate the stupidity of a general community. But sometimes, I just wish people would take the time to watch a 64k demo instead of a YouTube celebrity video.
Reddit has a way of tipping people with bitcoins for posts
/u/bitcoinbot 0.015BTC verify
/u/dogecoinbot 3000 doge verify
dogecoinbot:
Verified.
It's a pretty cute joke. Lots of people started following the leader and bang. Demand.
wow
such cynic
very not-with-the-timesDogecoin has the fastest rate of adoption, of any crypto-currency. Ever, period. It makes every coin, even bitcoin look like an absolute failure.
Because it's fun, and kids think it's cool. You guys missed the boat, because you were too busy being serious.

Well, that's a good way to drive fast adoption -- and equally fast abandonment.

Well looks like the internet has decided what coin they want to use.
Buttcoins are deprecated.
