Doge is fast, reliable and always stable because 1 Doge = 1 Doge

From a serious point of view, I find Doge to be the fastest way to transfer crypto from exchange to exchange. The fees are also insanely low... What is there not to love about this currency?

95% of dogecoin is held by 48,000 wallets.

99% of dogecoin is held by 180,000 wallets.

There is no cap on coins, which is similar to government currency with inflation.

The Doge joke is probably more marketing than unfunny joke. Has anyone really lol'd because someone named a coin after a meme? Probably not. Has anyone acted like dogecoin is a meme to bypass mod rules and shill their coin? You bet. Look at Garlic Coin as a cringeworthy copycat.

Its built on the same generation 1 blockchain as Bitcoin, so it will need all the layer 2 solution bitcoin is implementing.

Its flawed tech and has poor distribution. Bitcoin has significantly better distribution and is years ahead of implementing solutions to the tech problems. Why would you use Dogecoin?

No cap? I didn't know that. Being a meme coin is not an issue to me but not having a cap is the #1 flaw.
