Dogecoin: The Oldest and Most Successful Meme Coin

Dogecoin(DOGE)This meme coin, which once created a market value of 75 billion, has been a unique presence in the cryptocurrency world since it was created on December 8, 2013, by Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer. At that time, a Shiba Inu named "Kabosu" gained global fame for its amusing disdainful gaze, later becoming the inspiration for the cryptocurrency "Dogecoin" favored by American billionaire Elon Musk.

Kabosu was originally abandoned by her previous owner in a trash can and was later adopted by a kindergarten teacher named Sato in 2008. In 2010, after Sato uploaded a photo of Kabosu with her legs crossed, looking sideways with a proud expression, this adorable Shiba Inu instantly became a global sensation, and internet users around the world began creating various meme formats featuring her amusing expressions, dubbing her "Doge."

By 2013, its classic disdainful expression was chosen by two software engineers, leading to the creation of the meme coin ancestor "Dogecoin". After that, Dogecoin gained the favor and admiration of Musk, causing its market value to rapidly soar to a peak of $75 billion. Today, despite a decrease in popularity, it still holds a value of $23 billion, making it the eighth largest cryptocurrency in the world.

It is worth mentioning that in May last year, Kabosu passed away, which led to a wave of memories and hype of various dog meme coins, but it never reached the popularity of Dogecoin(DOGE) (DOGE). As of the date of writing, the price of Dogecoin(DOGE) fluctuates in the $0.16-$0.19 range, up 13% in 24 hours, and remains one of the most popular meme coins out there.

Fundamentals Affecting Dogecoin: Dogebox and the Deflationary Mechanism

According to the Dogecoin Foundation's original plan, an important project has been launched this year - Dogebox. Dogebox is a core part of the Dogecoin Foundation's Trailmap plan, aimed at helping global businesses accept Dogecoin(DOGE) more easily as a payment method. The system will provide tools for businesses to build their own online stores and seamlessly integrate with existing systems, participating in a decentralized payment network.

In a previous article titled "Latest Developments on DOGE Token: LibDogecoin Updates and ETF Application Progress," the author introduced some movements related to the DOGE Foundation, such as the new version of LibDogecoin(DOGE) optimizing Intel and ARM performance, supporting Dogebox, SPV lightweight nodes, and YubiKey hardware key storage, among others.

According to the latest data, the number of merchants connected to the Dogebox payment system has surpassed 1,800, with an average daily transaction volume reaching 2.4 million. If the API integration with Square and Stripe can be completed by the second quarter of 2025, Dogecoin may become the first cryptocurrency to cover 5% of offline merchants across the United States. However, regulators are closely scrutinizing its anti-money laundering compliance, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has requested KYC data for all transactions exceeding $10,000.

In addition, the co-founder of Dogecoin revealed in February this year that Dogecoin(DOGE) may implement a deflationary mechanism through community consensus, with specific paths including: developers submitting code modification proposals (GitHub Pull Request), community and miners reaching a consensus, and running the new protocol.

Currently, the total supply of Dogecoin( is approximately 148.9 billion coins, with an annual issuance of 5 billion coins, and the inflation rate gradually decreases as the total supply increases. Marcus emphasizes that the supply mechanism of DOGE is more flexible than that of Bitcoin, and in the long run, it may outperform fiat currency systems. If the deflationary plan is implemented, it could provide long-term support for the price of DOGE. However, this plan currently faces strong resistance from miners.

Dogecoin Price Prediction: Highly Dependent on Social Sentiment, Price Range is Large

Predictions range from $0.489843 to $1.43, reflecting the market's optimism and divergence regarding long-term prospects.

In fact, like all Meme coins, Dogecoin also follows a boom and bust cycle driven by external events, with its price being highly sensitive to market sentiment and dynamics on social media. The most famous surge occurred in 2021, when Dogecoin's price skyrocketed to $0.73 after Musk's appearance on Saturday Night Live, but then plummeted in the following months. Similar speculative cycles may repeat in future bull markets.

Although Dogecoin has been listed on several mainstream trading platforms, including Gate.io, new integrations with payment processors like PayPal or Amazon could reignite a hype cycle. If such integrations are realized, Dogecoin may experience another speculative frenzy.
