Remember the big public naming even they held for the new science vessel in England? The winner by a mile was Boaty Mc Boatface. It made world headlines, people loved it. Then the stupid ass pretentious people in charge of it decided not to go with the runaway public favorite and name it sir something or other. I’ll bet less than 1% of anyone in England knows it name, but they ALL KNOW boaty mc boat face. They missed their chance at massive lifetime publicity and public funding... idiots.

So now enter Dogecoin. Yes it was a joke on bitcoin. Yes it has a cult following. Yes it’s abandoned as a project and it simply exists out there and has taken on a life of its own. But that’s it’s point. It’s not controlled by anyone, it’s not pretentious or lofty. It’s the people’s common coin.

I think, because it exists in a state of freedom, it might be the first one to truly qualify as a currency. Also, it’s value and availability is better. Nobody wants to spend a whole paycheck on .00002 bitcoin...

Personally if we had to pick a new world currency, we could do much worse, like anything tied to a government...

You assume to think I was wrong... funny. I started my crypto portfolio in 2014, mostly I’ve ignored it since then and that’s worked out for me.

I don’t think bitcoin has had its very bad day yet, it will. Too much big money in it from far away lands, they move hundreds of billions in or out on rumors and superstition. In the end, the natural universe will put a stop to all the fun and games with the end of electronics. At that point, if you haven’t used your magic internet money to buy a good sized farm your days are going to be short.

In the end none of it matters, we all die. Have fun with it while you’re here.
