People are losing their damn minds over this Doge pump.

I haven't seen this much shade thrown in a while.
It's comical even.

7 cents to 45 cent peak in four days.

Legendary.

There's an abundance of whining and outright rage that Doge spiked up to the number 5 token by market cap today.

It makes no sense.

Doge doesn't deserve to get pumped.

If Doge spikes more I quit.

At the end of the day if you have negative feelings toward Doge pumping, I have news: the problem is you. Crypto is all about freedom and abundance, and if you're mad and jealous regarding the success of another project: you aren't even trying. You're living in scarcity with a scarcity mindset, plain and simple.

Again, if you were living in abundance, you'd see this Doge pump for what it actually is: good for everyone in the cryptosphere. It's not a zero-sum game. It's not a competition. Thinking Doge is overvalued is completely irrelevant. Get over it: the market doesn't care about our opinions.

At the end of the day this isn't about crypto vs crypto. Open source code does not compete with itself. These networks are synergistic in nature. Fiat vs crypto is the real competition, and a pump in Doge signals more fiat is entering the ecosystem and gives legitimacy to the entire space.

In fact, Doge having such low fundamental attributes is actually a great sign. There are people out in the world who'd rather own a meme-coin than hold on to a fiat currency who's economic policy is to simply print money to infinity. The counterfeit problem has been 100% solved and no one seems to care. Everyone can be their own central bank and all I hear is "where's my Lambo?" Have you ever considered that you don't deserve a Lambo even if you have the money to buy one?

There are so many variables coming together here. Branding and advertising are big ones: but the core of crypto has always been about community.

Would you tell someone they aren't allowed to root for a certain sports team because that team isn't very good? There's a lot of luck involved in sports, just like there's a lot of luck involved in crypto. Anyone can win: that's what makes it interesting.

Would you tell someone in poker who lost with the best preflop hand (AA) that they should have folded? That's not how gambling works. You don't get to retroactively tell someone (including yourself) that a bad call was made based on the outcome. It's surprising how few people actually know that if a slot machine hasn't won in a long time it doesn't gain a higher chance of winning.

Conclusion

It seems like around 90% of the cryptoverse has missed the point entirely as they wallow in their own greed and ridiculousness. Litecoin up 30%, BCH up 30%, Dash up 30%, Maker up 30%... The alt-market is signaling massive gains and all anyone can do is complain about how their 'superior' shitcoin didn't go x4 like Doge.

You can't see the forest from the trees. Those who ride this roller coaster of day to day price action are completely blinded to the fact that this is actually good for everyone. The alt-market isn't in danger of ending: it literally just began. All you have to do is sit tight and watch number go up over the next two months.

Mad that the thing we've been waiting for this whole time is finally here, but your token didn't swing first so fuck crypto? Such a bad look. The blatant greed displayed today was the exact reason why crypto needs to exist in the first place. Thousands of people just signaled to the world in public exactly why they can't be trusted to be put in charge of the economy, and the worst part is they don't even realize it. Power corrupts and greed reigns supreme.

We are not as evolved as we think.

Fact.

So true, It doesn't make sense but when the hell is the last time Crypto or the stock market made real sense. It's all Influencers and hype now no matter how you look at it. Things have changed in the world and you either roll with it and capitalize on it or you sit back and piss and moan. I perfect to make profits ;)

People losing their nuts over Doge is so ridiculous... but it reminds me of something.

Let us cast our minds back to... ohhh... the late 1990s when the original "nerds" who believed they were responsible for (and in control over) the whole ball of wax called "The Internet" started losing their shit because the commercial* Internet started to show some serious success. "But... BUT... that's not how the Internet is meant to be USED!" they whined as we started down the slippery slope to the hypercommercialized web we have today.

I'm gonna guess (and I could be wrong) that more than a fair share of those doing the whining about Doge are crypto/blockchain purists who just can't STAND the idea that a very simple and fun shitcoin with generally sound technicals, but no use case other than being a tipping coin on web forums... is suddenly acting serious.

Or, rather, the general public is choosing something entertaining over dry blockchain maximilization.

Just a possibility.

Yeah, I'm getting rather tired of anyone I have ever known in my life texting me about DOGE. Especially when most of them own no crypto to begin with lol.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

lol yeah isn't that swell?
Been talking about crypto for ages and they bring up Doge after a spike.
silly

A no-coiner friend of mine DM'd me a week ago, that he'd aped into Doge out of the blue. First purchase, zero knowledge. Saw it mentioned somewhere and took a punt. I shook my head and wished him well, now he looks like a wizard.

I shoulda bought Doge when it was 2 cents... LOL

Yeah, this is probably a bogus comment, but I completely agree with everything you said.

After all, it seems I can't help to add a few more words.

Many seem incapable to grasp the concept of cooperation instead of competition. We were raised and we lived most of our lives developing the competitional / conflictual mindset. It's hard to let go.

Even teams, where supposedly there's cooperation between members (when there isn't competition) rarely cooperate with other teams. They compete.

Tell me a cooperative non-competitive sport/game. There might be, but they are certainly hard to find.

I am only made because my greedy arse did not buy doge when I wanted to. Nevertheless, it is what it is... We are all winning in different ways. We cannot have it all.

Honesty. I like that.

Get over it: the market doesn't care about our opinions.

Never has, never will.

This is a central fact that a lot of people seem to ignore. The market is not a conscious entity that responds to a predetermined set of rules. It's instead a result of society.

Exactly!

Scarcity Mentality

Zero sum game

Tribalism

Doge has value because people give it vale. People in the crypto verse are refusing to evolve past those prehistoric traits and become 22 century humans.

Sad

They are losing their minds because they wish they had held onto their Doge! !LUV

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Why my number no go up!

Sorry, you're out of LUV tokens to be sent today. Try tomorrow. (Having at least 5 LUV in your wallet allows you to freely give 3 per day.)

I don't think it's fun to see it go up. I'm not mad about it, just not particularly pleased either.

Great post and awesome video hahahha

Yeah, all those people missed out on DOGE over and over again.

I told everyone to buy DOGE and I was getting flagged to zero on here.

I have no anger toward grape receiving monkey, but I sure am tired of cucumbers...

DOge story is a great story.
Let's hope we catch some on the way around.
Only experienced holders will understand
the intricacies of all tokens.

we know doge coin won't be used for any real global remittance. Vendors and merchants won't accept it. It's just more of a speculation wetdream .. it doesn't fund any new projects or solve significant problems doesn't lead to any healthier circumstances in the world.

We don't know any of that. It's pretty ironic that that you're making the claim that Dogecoin is purely speculative as you make wild speculations about the future of Doge. Vendors won't accept Doge? Of course they will. 100% guaranteed.

It is a serious red flag that you're trying to pin this on Elon Musk and speculate even further that this is all his fault.
You referenced his name five times in one comment.

The mere concept of trying to place blame here is rooted in centralization, regulation, and authoritarianism. No one can blame Musk for anything under the laws of crypto and decentralization. You are basically calling for the exact people who we are trying to break away from to swoop in and fix the 'problem'. Hard pass. The powers that be have already proved themselves to be a much bigger problem than a billionaire who likes to troll people on Twitter.

Seems like Musk just plays it fast and loose and does whatever he wants.
