$DOGE
Dogecoin is a popular cryptocurrency that started in 2013 as a fun project based on the dog meme featuring a Shiba Inu. Unlike Bitcoin, which was designed as a digital alternative to money, Dogecoin was made to be light‑hearted, easy to use, and meme‑friendly, which helped it build a big community of supporters. �

Here’s what makes Dogecoin unique:
💰 Inflationary supply: Unlike Bitcoin’s limited supply, Dogecoin doesn’t have a maximum cap. Around 5 billion new DOGE are added each year, which keeps miners incentivized. �

Because of this meme‑driven nature, Dogecoin’s value can swing dramatically based on sentiment, trends, and social buzz rather than just economic fundamentals. Its price is tracked by traders using candle charts, which show how price moves over time.
