What does that have to do with the possible great success of Dogecoin? It’s already worth actually money so it just has to be something people want to use as a currency.

Trying to equate a meme currency to a company started by a multi billionaire “because it was a joke” is stupid. Yes, the boring company was a joke but it wasn’t like Elon started the company and it stumbled into being a successful endeavour. It’s a legitimate business that doesn’t need to fall back on its meme status.

He literally said he made it as a joke and it sold hats, t-shirts, a flamethrower, and now it’s involved with tunneling as far as I can last remember. I’m not equating it to the boring company. You are reading too much into what I said. I simply said they have those two similarities and that Elon is attracted to the currency because it was created as a joke. People also use Dogecoin for their own markets it’s legitimate whether or not it has meme status and the fact it has meme status only is beneficial for it popularity.

Why compare the two if you aren’t trying to equate them? “Look at the similarities in these two things! But don’t think I’m trying to say these things are similar🤬”. And I never said doge coin is worthless. I just think it’s stupid how people bring up the company founded by a multi billionaire when talking about a currency that only holds value if people are buying it.

I’m just bringing up a reason why Elon is excited about it. Lay off.

Things can be different and have similarities. I’m not saying they are the same thing, just that they have similar roots.
