Dogecoin

Dogecoin (DOGE) was created in 2013 by Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer as a lighthearted cryptocurrency based on the popular "Doge" Shiba Inu meme, originally intended as a joke but quickly evolving into a legitimate digital asset with a passionate community. Built on a fork of Litecoin's codebase, Dogecoin features faster block times and an inflationary supply model that makes it potentially well-suited for microtransactions and online tipping.

The Dogecoin ecosystem thrives on community-driven initiatives, charitable fundraising, and mainstream adoption accelerated by high-profile endorsements from figures like Elon Musk. Major companies including Tesla, AMC, and the Dallas Mavericks have accepted DOGE as payment.

At CoinDesk, we track Dogecoin news ranging from price movements and celebrity endorsements to technical developments and merchant adoption. Our coverage explores how meme culture intersects with serious cryptocurrency adoption, the impact of social media on DOGE's volatility, and the ongoing development efforts to improve the network's functionality.
