Dogecoin

Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency created by software engineers Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer as a joke to make fun of the wild speculation in cryptocurrencies at the time. It was introduced on December 6, 2013, and quickly developed its own online community, reaching a peak market capitalization of over US$85 billion on May 5, 2021. Despite its satirical nature, Dogecoin became a legitimate investment prospect and its value jumped nearly 300% in value in 72 hours, but also experienced a major crash and a hacking incident that led to the theft of millions of coins.learn more on wikipedia
