Is it worth to mention in the part about Elon Musk and Dogecoin, that the planned US Department of Government Effiency, which will be led by Elon Musk, is abbreviated with D.O.G.E ?

Add background information: specifically that Billy Markus set up the cryptocurrency in Portland, Oregon.

Can someone on the english wiki look at this article, under the portion where Elon Musk is mentioned and fix the spelling in the final paragraph of the article fix the spelling from Noviembre to November. THis might be the correct spelling in Spanish, but it certainly isn’t in English. Lezgeek (talk) 23:12, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would highly suggest adding Bellscoin (see: https://bellscoin.com/) along with Litecoin and Luckycoin in the history section, it is clear, given by this article https://www.vice.com/en/article/dogecoins-founders-believe-in-the-power-of-meme-currencies/ that it was used for the creation of Dogecoin. I am not sure why this hasn't already been added, as the interview is already being sourced here. Pepepigman (talk) 10:26, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This wiki is mentioning that Dogecoin takes its origin from Luckycoin. However, based on multiple source, it appears that it takes origin from Bellscoin. From an interview, Billy Markus, Dogecoin lead developer, said: https://www.vice.com/en/article/dogecoins-founders-believe-in-the-power-of-meme-currencies/

“I was tinkering with a coin that I had already made called ‘Bells,’ based off of Nintendo’s Animal Crossing, that wasn’t particularly successful,” Markus said. “I was mucking with it and I figured out how to change all the fonts to Comic Sans MS, then thought, ‘oh ok, this could be funny.’ So I had a mockup of the client with the Dogecoin picture Palmer made, and I just wanted to show that I wasn’t a n00b and I could actually make coins… This wasn’t some weird master plan that we had.”

From the Github repository, we can also see an evidence (BELLS logo) on Dogecoin source code, indicating that Dogecoin takes source from Bellscoin. https://github.com/dogecoin/dogecoin/blob/8b09dc5d711bc0bedefc29c199a79ce39f691558/src/qt/res/icons/bitcoin.icns

Bellscoin source code commits are from Billy Markus, 11 years ago: https://github.com/bellscoin/bellscoin Tongrandrop (talk) 18:01, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: this edit request seems to be based on original research, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. Please provide reliable sources that specifically state that Dogecoin is based on Bellscoin. Bowler the Carmine | talk 20:40, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Change the line “ It was reported in 2013 that Musk thinks Dogecoin could be used for Twitter transactions.” to “It was reported in 2022 that Musk thinks Dogecoin could be used for Twitter transactions.” 2A06:C701:4CCB:B300:98E1:D453:CCF2:E2D5 (talk) 21:47, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, the owner of Doge just got a new dog named Cocoro and even launched a token for it! ! I tried making a page about it Draft:Cocoro, but it got rejected due to lack of coverage. Maybe $COCORO could be mentioned in this article instead since it's part of the same dog family? Stablecoin (talk) 18:34, 12 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please cite a reliable source. Few (if any) crypto outlets have a positive reputation for accuracy and fact checking, so they are not generally considered to be reliable sources. Thanks. Grayfell (talk) 20:14, 12 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I guess you might've missed this link I cited—it’s a source that’s widely used in other articles. Stablecoin (talk) 04:12, 13 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
