Please do your research well before investing money in any cryptocurrency.
Recently Dogecoin is popping up everywhere in the news. So I wanted to know about this newly famous cryptocurrency and how it is different form the other cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. To understand more about the difference and the reason for the sudden boom in dogecoin I did some research on dogecoin and the other cryptocurrency. While the researching about dogecoin I found out that it is a meme coin, and it is very volatile and was mad out of silliness. Whereas bitcoin and Ethereum are two very different cryptocurrency but are made for a reason and are much secured than dogecoin. Just like there can only be 21 million bitcoins ever. Doge coin adds 10000 doge ever single minute of every single day there is no limit no scarcity. If there is no scarcity the price will drop as people stop buying there are many more factors for the price to drop and increase though I wont go in that details. While researching about dogecoin I found out just like dogecoin there are many more meme coins. So I have made dataset of some top meme cryptocurrency and to compare it with some famous cryptocurrency like bitcoin and Ethereum. I am not promoting any cryptocurrency in this post nor i am promoting you'll to invest in any cryptocurrency. This post is to make people aware of such cryptocurrency.
