Who cares! That's the point ;)

Also, "to the moon" is a dogecoin reddit joke, it doesn't mean anything in particular

Much like dogecoin and its relation to bitcoin, "to the moon" is a long-running thing that transcends any single Internet event.

To the moon is simultaneously the moon and the path to the moon.

A dogecoin joke? Are you serious? Bitcoiners have been screaming to the moon for years. But now it's doge's joke? Is there anything else you want to copy without improvement?

Yeah, the thing is that plenty of bitcoiners were screaming "to the moon" without any sense of irony.

In the dogecoin community it's a statement that carries an element of self-parody.

Not from what I've seen lately. There are a lot of true believers in /r/dogecoin, and they're taking it very seriously.
