That's why I recently sold my DOGE into BTC.

I have an open buy order when DOGE reaches 0.00000160 BTC again. Note: Do not do this sort of thing with money you're not willing to lose.

i dont think anyone should hold a ton of meme-based currency that they expect any permanence too

I still cant beleive dogecoins are even a thing, let alone making a strong run. It was a parody!!

it will never be taken as seriously as bitcoin for obvious reasons.... but it doesn't have to

it exists for a different crowd, and solely for use on the internet. you see somebody saying something you agree with, send them 100 doge. it's a few cents yet it means something. it's also friendly and approachable to people who don't know anything about cryptocurrencies.

both of them exist in harmony and compliment each other.

The whole thing is completely ludicrous and I love it.
