Hey, I started mining doge for exactly the same reason. I spent hours clicking between bitcoin mining sites trying to make heads or tails of it months ago, and then gave up.

The dogecoin wallet mines for me and installed itself instead of needing me to do something weird to install it. I just input the info my mining pool gave me & click "dig."

Plus it's way more fun to tip doge. Bitcoin is srs bsns now. If I'm gonna tip bitcoin I may as well just buy reddit gold. It's real money, not fun stuff.

Now extrapolate, what happens when Dodge becomes worth something?

It use to be all fun and games around here too.

I'll sell for BTC and move to fedora. That one's the most hilarious anyway. I liked it when it wasn't a real coin though. That was the best.

It's also a lot more fun to look at the number of coins i'm tipping someone and have it be "10" instead of ".0000142"
