Crypto experts say the recent inclusion of the digital asset on Coinbase is likely to boost the value and usage, taking into consideration the crypto exchange’s boast of being the most powerful institutional entity in the crypto-verse.

Dogecoin is also one of the seven crypto assets currently used by the popular American trading app, Robinhood.

The popular crypto created about eight years ago was considered as a mild alternative to traditional digital assets like Bitcoin. The Dogecoin name is based on a meme. Unlike Bitcoin, which is designed to have a finite supply, Dogecoin has an unlimited supply with about ten thousand new coins mined every minute.

Since its inception, it has been one euphoric rise over another with billionaires like Mark Cuban, celebrities like Mia Khalifa, and Snoop Dogg, among many others, tweeting about it.

The most influential support has come from Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, whose continuous messages via social media on the crypto asset made it increase in value significantly.

Recall also that Dallas Mavericks and Sacramento Kings have also become sports brands using crypto assets for ticket sales and online merchandise.

Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency created by software engineers Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer, who decided to create a payment system as a joke, making fun of the wild speculation in cryptocurrencies at the time. Despite its satirical nature, some consider it a legitimate investment prospect.
