Basically Doge sat there and did nothing for 6 years, and in the last week went insane. Seems risky to me? For example if you had invested $100 in 2014 it would be worth around $1400 today and if you had invested $100 on December 31st 2020 it would be worth $1200.

Same as lottery tickets. "Lotteries should be played as a game and not for investment purposes."

If it excites you and you can afford to spend it (like going out to eat versus taking an international flight) then go for it.

Make sure you spread your earnings around the for sale forum.

Don't go into debt and don't think you are making wise financial decisions. Otherwise, have fun.
Got some years ago (not doge) wasn’t motivated by financial reasons it was more of a give the federal reserve the finger move. I liked the independent streak of the white paper and what some of these cryptos were meant to be. Didn’t play out as I thought as all the big corporations are now into it, that’s the exact opposite of it’s true meaning. So I let it sit for years. Don’t recommend it to anyone far to volatile but tbh looking at it now I wish I had gotten a lot more, things could be quite different. It’s okay though, I just wanted to be part of it

So musk and Tesla bought 1.5 billion in bitcoin and will now accept bitcoin as payment for Tesla products. All crypto will get a rise from that.
Sub-head to this story in the Wall Street Journal:
"What could possibly go wrong?"

What is likely to go wrong for most people is missed opportunity. We'll all be using crypto soon, because fiat currencies will be going to the blockchain before you know it because that will increase efficiency and give the issuers far more control. Today we have the opportunity to stock up on crypto that won't be inflated away at prices we'll never see again.

Or not. Maybe it's all a scam and a passing fad.

I would call it dodge-y for sure...

1929. Study history. Market is insane (Including the NYSE) thanks to the FED at the moment. IMO!

Recommend you watch:
. Some rumor it is musk himself. Not sure. Either way, I sold all mine today at a happy profit. Saying it could be the next GME should be reason enough not to get in.
There are a lot of very wealthy people in the world and this is just pocket chain for these guys like buying couple scratch lottery tickets every couple weeks for these guys they get bored like all the rest of us...

I don't think it will be "soon." Here's a little something from Finance Magnates:
------------------
The reasoning also pointed to an increased interest in USDT after the crypto ban: “after the PBoC ICO/exchange ban, the most convenient way to buy cryptos in China, is to buy Stablecoins first using OTC, and then trade it into any cryptos you want--for example, using Tether via the Ethereum blockchain.”

A former student in my department was into mining Doge coins a few years ago. When I heard this, I advised him he was likely paying more in electricity and computers than he’d ever earn - I think he had already spent $10k on several computers to increase his retrieval rate.

hope he sells them now. Might break even.

There was a thread about quirks, and this is a thread about Dogecoin, and here is a random video I stumbled on by a quirky guy talking about Dogecoin in his quirky way with twinkles in his eyes and some quirky theories...first minute I wasn’t sure whether to laugh or think he’s a joke, but he reminds of a very dear (and smart) old colleague...so he gets a post here...and I can’t help to watch this and smirk 😀

I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see Tesla accept BTC, but it seems unlikely they’d give away a car for a crypto with no use case and an unlimited supply.

Aside from stablecoins, there are only two coins in the top twenty that are in the red for the last 24 hours. Maybe it's a good time for DOGE holders to take something off the table. But, maybe not. It sure is interesting to watch it play out.

Well to be honest I was talking about stocks...

What do you mean “soon” my Shiba missed the memo that it wasn’t supposed to happen yet!
