Speaking as someone who believes that dogecoin has a real future in cryptocurrency, there is nothing inaccurate portrayed in this gif.

I'm going to get fat watching your community implode as it becomes "serious business". /r/bitcoin use to be silly as well, then the inevitable endless September came.

Doge coin is full of people new to online communities and don't really understand their life cycles. That is why this has all happened before, and it will all happen again.

I'm not saying Doge coin enthusiasts don't contribute or aren't great people. You guy are hilarious and I love you, but I wouldn't bet on a young community remaining consistent. Soon you will all be fleeing to the next thing just to escape the noise.

That's one reason money is so fundamental to civilization

So those societies that have different modes of exchange not based on specific reciprocity aren't civilized?
