What is Dogecoin?

Dogecoin (DOGE) — a cryptocurrency, based on Litecoin. Named after the internet meme Doge. It was introduced in December 2013. Unlike other cryptocurrencies, Dogecoin has a fairly fast initial mining period.

History of Dogecoin (DOGE)

Dogecoin (DOGE), with Shiba Inu in its logo, is based on the popular internet meme "doge". The creators of Dogecoin envisioned it as a fun, carefree cryptocurrency that would have a lot of appeal outside of the mainstream Bitcoin audience since it was based on a funny picture. Tesla CEO Elon Musk posted several tweets on social media that Dogecoin is his favorite coin.

The token differs from the Bitcoin proof-of-work protocol in several ways, one of which is the use of Scrypt technology.

How do you mine Dogecoin:

Quantity Altcoin also has a lock time of 1 minute and the total supply is unlimited, which means there is no limit to the amount of Dogecoin that can be mined.
Pool You can mine tokens either alone or by joining a mining pool.

The Doge miner can mine digital currency on Windows, Mac or Linux, as well as using a GPU. As of 2014, you can also mine Litecoin in the same Dogecoin mining process as the processes have been merged.

Use of tokens

Dogecoin was used primarily as a tipping system on Reddit and Twitter to reward the creation or sharing of quality content. You can tip Dogecoin:

  • by participating in a community that uses digital currency;
  • you can claim your token on the Dogecoin faucet, which is a website that will give you a small amount of Dogecoin for free as an introduction to the currency so you can start interacting in communities.

You can sell or buy a coin on any exchange that offers digital currency, store it on an exchange or in a Dogecoin wallet and tip DOGE in any communities that accept it. Most cryptocurrencies have a predetermined emission limit. DOGE has no such limitation. Initially, there is a limit of 100 billion tokens. In February 2014, project founder Jackson Palmer announced that the restriction would be lifted and no restriction would be there. At the same time, there is a fixed reward of 10,000 coins for creating a block.
