The problem with Doge is that it has no apparent functional utility in comparison to the other alts.
So then why are people using it more than the other altcoins?Because there's a lot of coins to be thrown around.
That's the fun of doge, being able to transact in these large denominations seemingly without worry that you're losing anything.
I use Doge often to exchange because it easy to get and it's highly fungible, that doesn't mean I believe in it's model or future value.
You just listed one of Dogecoin's utilities.
Why would someone use Dogecoin and not Litecoin for exchange then?
He didn't say litecoin has more utility, or did he?
I think the problem is, that a coin has no reason to exist if it doesn't offer anything unique. Sure it will stick around for a few years, maybe 1-2 decades, but it will get lost in translation once other, superior techs and networks take over the market completely.
