DOGE was conceived as a meme currency, but after 11 years of existence, the token is often used to pay for purchases.
I had to go use the internet to confirm that doge is truly upto 11 years of existence. I was surprised to confirm this to be true. I wasn't aware this while that doge is among the early cryptocurrencies that were created. I had to be aware of it when Elon Musk started hyping it on the then twitter now known as X. This should be a confirmation that it is no longer a meme coin, since it now has some use cases. I also do not think that it is over for dogecoin because Elon could wake tomorrow and start posting the image of dog in his X and you know what that will mean to the dogecoin. I am not sure that doge is disappearing any moment, it is now part of the industry.
