It was hovering against USD as Bitcoin was rising. That doesn't make it a good alt to invest in though, even if it is better than some others that tank whenever Bitcoin goes up.
Maybe the rise yesterday was it, each pump is smaller than the last, as it should be with an inflationary coin.
I mean, at the end of the day, it is a coin based on a meme of a dog with bad English, it probably won't stay the course long term.
We live in an era where memes are everything. I mean Trump won the presidency with a meme.
Doge is by far the friendliest coin out there - it has had very good mainstream press (thanks to sponsorship of the Jamaican bon-sled team and that Nascar guy).
I'm not worried about the lack of new development, it works just fine, so why mess with it? Sometimes focusing on the social instead of the technical is just what a coin needs to make a breakthrough.
