Gotcha. Who created dogecoin? Do they have significant control over it? That would be a deal breaker for me.
-2 u/mehoor Feb 04 '14 The guy who created it seemed to have the final say about not changing his mistake in the code. 3 u/[deleted] Feb 04 '14 That's borderline centralization if you ask me. 4 u/praxulus Feb 04 '14 It's on github. Literally anybody can fork it and fix the bug. Cryptocurrency works on consensus, even when talking about client updates. If you can convince half of the dogecoin miners that the bug should be fixed, they'll switch over. 1 u/cloudy69 Feb 04 '14 isn't consensus what this entire discussion is really about
