Dogecoin, led by WSB and Tesla founder Elon Musk, has become a recent The most concerned and popular cryptocurrency in the industry, Bitcoin is not as good as it is. The story of a 10-fold increase in one day also shocked everyone. In this bull market, the market value of Dogecoin also jumped Global top ten.
3 days ago, Dogecoin founder Billy Markus wrote a post for all Dogecoin lovers on the Dogecoin section of Reddit In the letter, he said that he had sold all Dogecoin in 2015 and exchanged for a second-hand Honda. At the same time, he emphasized that the real value of Dogecoin is not to pull and smash, but to bring "positive energy" to the world.
Rhythm BlockBeats translated the content of this letter, let's take a look at the founder's innermost thoughts.
The following is the content of the letter:
I can’t believe it, this board (r/dogecoin/) has more than one million members now, when I was still active, it was not yet now 10% of. Let me first introduce myself to new friends, I am Billy Markus, founder of Dogecoin.
As you may have heard before, Jackson Palmer tweeted I came up with an idea about "Dogecoin", and then I made it without any expectations or plans.
The whole development process only took about 3 hours, most of the They are all modified according to requirements, showing Comic Sans fonts, and some other graphics and text.
As I mentioned before on Twitter, I am no longer a dog Dogecoin project. I left around 2015 because around that time the community that I was comfortable with started to change, very strongly. I don’t have any Dogecoins now, I gave away a lot of Dogecoins, and after I was fired in 2015, I was worried about deposits, so I sold all Dogecoins and exchanged all the money for a second-hand Honda.
Because I see that there are many errors in the information about me, Let me stress here that I have nothing to worry about about this matter.
Since I am not involved in anything about Dogecoin, why should I What about this post? For those who want to hear, I want to provide some Dogecoin perspective and history
Dogecoin News< /h3>
Recently, Dogecoin is very hot, and many coin holders send me emails , let me pull disks or do something else, I don't like that very much. Of course, I know how important money is.
My mom is still trying to pay off her mortgage and may lose the house. If I hadn't "fucked" with all my cryptocurrency investments a few years ago, we'd have it easy now.
In addition to these, I also received some positive responses, which made I remembered some past events of Dogecoin.
"Save the Dogemas"
< /p>
The first few weeks after the launch of Dogecoin, the speed of development was incredible, from a joke to something of value to people. In the process of a community's development, a lot of infrastructure is added.
One of the things is an online wallet, no need to download a laborious client . However, over the Christmas period, the wallet was hacked, and 21 million Dogecoins were stolen in the process.
Stories like this are all too common in the cryptocurrency world, but then What happened next is interesting. Some community members got together and created the Dogecoin Fund to "Save Dogemas", they tried to return the money to the victims, and to my surprise, the community was willing to help.
The Dogecoin community donated millions of coins to help those victims, and the community Donations don’t stop there, for example, they help build water wells in Africa, help connect service dogs and children, help send the Jamaican bobsled team to the Olympics, and sponsor a NASCAR driver.
Real Value
People imagine that when Dogecoin rises to $1, its market value will exceed companies like Boeing and Starbucks. But is Dogecoin really worth such a high market cap? I can't understand it, let alone answer it.
I don’t really have a say in this, as a founder, I Hopefully Dogecoin and the community can be a formidable force. I'm not saying that donating to charity or helping people directly are the only things that are worthwhile, doing anything else that's fun has value too.
The legal value of Dogecoin is anyone willing to pay for it at any time It's the price paid, but the intrinsic value I can never define. When I talk about value, I'm talking about "real value", the "positive energy" that Dogecoin brings to the world.
Pulling, smashing, and hype are worthless, The world is already miserable, and these actions can only bring about more negative effects. As a founder, I've seen a lot over the past 7 years and I'm not angry, just disappointed.
joy, kindness, learning, giving, empathy, fun, The presence of community, inspiration, creativity, generosity, etc., makes Dogecoin worthwhile to me. If the community embodies these things, that's real value.
