Dogecoin is what happens when you’re having fun messing around with crypto. DOGE could be called a satire coin. DOGE was founded in 2013 by Markus and Palmer by forking LTC. The cryptocurrency was based on a dog, a Shiba Inu, which is their logo.
DOGE is the native token on the Dogecoin blockchain. It has over 130 billion coins in circulation, with new issuance of 5 billion coins a year.
You can buy Dallas Mavericks tickets with DOGE, thanks to Mark Cuban’s open-mindedness about crypto. Elon is even going to send DOGE to Mars.
Dogecoin is considered a commodity by Canadian regulators. Any exchange of DOGE for products, services or other cryptocurrencies is considered a barter transaction by the CRA.
