The cryptocurrency market has boomed into 2021 stronger than ever: the price of Bitcoin is setting record after record, interest in Ethereum is through the roof and the DeFi industry continues to grow.
And altcoins also show no sign of slowing down—namely the OG “meme coin,” Dogecoin (DOGE). The price of DOGE was $0.011 at the time of writing, a 121% increase in 24 hours, according to CoinGecko data.
The coin, which was created as a joke but now has a market cap of $1.3 billion, surged in value in 2020 with other altcoins. This time last year, before crypto-mania gripped the world, the coin was worth just $0.00204887.
Its price is now up 441%.
Despite having begun as a joke, cryptocurrency Dogecoin banged the golden gong late last week, scoring a bona fide integration with the popular Coinbase Wallet. The success of this doge-and-pony show (without a pony) has been as surprising to the Dogecoin team as it's been to crypto pundits. In October, Doge's estranged co-founder, Jackson Palmer, told Decrypt that rumors of a Coinbase listing were just that, and noted that the legal documentation Coinbase required was almost impossible to ass...
Why the coin is up so much is anyone’s guess. But the coin has been in the limelight a lot in the past year: Elon Musk said it was his favorite cryptocurrency (sending the price up) and a viral TikTok video also encouraged people to invest.
And the coin does have some uses—albeit criminal ones. Last year, hackers started using the cryptocurrency to control Monero-mining malware.
DOGE was created by developers Jackson Palmer and Billy Markus in 2013 to poke fun at Bitcoin.
But the currency has since become popular—much to its creators’ surprise—and is now available on major exchanges. It comfortably sits in the top 30 cryptocurrencies in terms of market cap.

It appears that the Central African Republic President hasn’t given up on the country’s official meme coin. He hinted Wednesday that the token is set to influence a future law. After the tease, the Central African Republic Meme (CAR) token has jumped 20% to a $15.8 million market cap, according to CoinGecko. “Some documents don’t just make laws. They make history! $CAR,” President Faustin-Archange Touadéra wrote on X. This was accompanied by a photo of a white document with the word “decret” at...
Solana-based meme coin launchpad Pump.Fun’s co-founder has pushed back against Coinbase’s Layer 2 network Base’s controversial auto-minted token experiment, making it clear his platform has no plans to follow suit. “There’s a reality where what Base did is normal in a few years’ time—but it DEFINITELY isn’t today and that has resulted in hurt,” co-founder Alon Cohen tweeted Thursday. The post was a direct response to the “Base is for everyone” token, which was minted automatically through oncha...
Base, Coinbase's Layer 2 network, posted content that automatically minted as a tradable token through Zora, an onchain social protocol, triggering a trading frenzy before the asset quickly collapsed. The "Base is for everyone" token originated from Base's official X account. Base said they had "coined it" on Zora at 3:12 PM ET. Despite a webpage disclaimer on Zora that it is not an official Base token, traders drove its valuation to $13 million before it crashed to just $1 million three hours l...
