How to Dig for Ɖogecoin
What is Ɖogecoin?
Dogecoin (code: DOGE, symbol: Ɖ and D), is a Litecoin-derived cryptocurrency that uses the Shiba Inu dog character from the 'Doge' Internet meme as its mascot.
Uses and Exchanges
There are several online exchanges that handle DOGE/BTC and DOGE/LTC trading. The price is highly volatile due to the relatively short existence of the currency. As of Dec 19th 2013, the price for one DOGE was $0.00095, although this hasn't been a deterrent for exchange since people are trading real-world items in exchange for DOGE on major online communities such as Reddit.
