The signal to buy was when Dogecoin volume doubled Bitcoin volume. You had a couple days before the world realized how underpriced Doge was. Doge was around 45-50 Satoshis then.

Funding the Jamaican bobsled team, and tapping into Cool Runnings millenial nostalgia was a great PR move by the Doge community.

The recent price correction is probably due to mining pools jumping in when profitability soared before difficulty adjusted.

The Doge community has a saying "To the moon!". Moon being defined by many as $1 per coin.

Edit:

Watch the video at http://howtodoge.com to get a feel for the community effort to go "to the moon!"

And the latest PR move is to get dogecoin quite literally to the moon by figuring out how to fund PSU's Lunar Lion moon probe

Apparently, a laser engraving of a Shiba Inu on the side of the craft would cost comparatively little.

I might donate a Doge or a few.

Yet another inspiration provided by Bitcoin.

"to the moon" has been used for many other cryptocurrencies before dogecoin existed
