        It was originally created as a parody of Bitcoin. The Doge community used to be mostly people making fun of crypto “investors”.

        It was just a meme at first mostly making fun of Bitcoin. The community made a lot of funny content and really didn’t take itself seriously. What it is now is a polar opposite of what it started as (including its creator)

      I remember mining it way back in 2015. The community was super fun and lighthearted. Nobody really cared about actually buying stuff with it outside of memeing about it becoming a serious currency. Apparently the creator is full MAGA now though which is sad
