<h4><strong>One thing that might stand out is that I am open-minded and have noticed over the years that I am an early adopter and curious.&nbsp;</strong></h4> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">After many years of following the stock market, I’ve become more interested in following the crypto market and its development. It’s interesting to follow the different sectors and their evolution. Much of my knowledge comes from Altcoin Buzz. Let’s discover more about $DOG.</span></p>

      <h5><strong>A New Frontier: Betting Big on Memecoins with Bitcoin</strong></h5> 
     </div> 
    </div> 
   </div> 
  </div> 
 </div> 
</div> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I discovered that <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=memecoins" target="_blank" rel="noopener">memecoins</a> are the biggest narrative of 2024 and started to take them seriously for the first time. I realized they aren’t that different from stocks or altcoins. The value isn’t based on how well or poorly a company does but is entirely up to what the market thinks it’s worth. You might disagree. But as I said, I’m open-minded and an early adopter. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">So, I decided to invest in memecoins.&nbsp;</span></p> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One criterion was that it shouldn’t be built on a testnet like Solana or Cardano, which could suddenly become obsolete due to newer networks. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">So, I thought, what if there’s a memecoin on Bitcoin? After a few minutes of searching on X, I came across a guy called <a href="https://x.com/LeonidasNFT" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@LeonidasNFT</a>. He had made an NFT on Bitcoin called RUNESTONE and airdropped it to people who had inscribed data on Satoshis, people who believe in BTC. </span></p> 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This was April 2024, and the Bitcoin halving was about to happen. At that moment, the Runes protocol was launched, making it possible to manage fungible tokens on Bitcoin. In other words, MEMECOINS ON BTC. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Before the halving, @LeonidasNFT made an announcement. He will create $DOG on Bitcoin and airdrop all tokens to Runestone holders.</span></p> 
<h5><strong>A DOG Coin on Bitcoin&nbsp;</strong></h5> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I purchased 4 Runestones and waited with anticipation for the $DOG <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=airdrop" target="_blank" rel="noopener">airdrop</a>. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">April 24th, $DOG was smoothly airdropped to 74,000 holders, and the $DOG community was born. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Leonidas’s mission was clear: To make $DOG the biggest memecoin ever! Here is a 2-min video about $DOG:</span></p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">So, I quickly realized there was something here, not just because it was a dog on Bitcoin. There was a strong will among everyone involved. Everyone saw the same potential. Since $dog is 100% owned by the community, We had to take $DOG to the moon. A self-fulfilling prophecy! So, I became a $dogfluencer.</span></p> 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

</blockquote> 
<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The community has no paid influencers or big CEX pushing. Everything the $DOG community has achieved has been done the hard way through sheer determination. This brought the community together; it may not be the biggest community, but it sure is the strongest and most dedicated.</span></p> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The more time I spend on X watching other memecoins and supporting $DOG, the more I realize how corrupt not only memecoins are but altcoins too. <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=centralized+exchanges" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CEXs</a> push scam coins and use their users as exit liquidity. Pretty much all memecoins are heavily held by the creators, whales, and paid influencers. CEXs get paid in tokens to list them, which makes the CEX very powerful. Here is a letter of Leonidas where he talks about this situation:</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">$DOG is doing the exact opposite. I can stand for this and feel good about it. $dog is the most free and fair coin out there. This aligns with my values.</span></p> 
<h5><b>What is the Future for this Young BTC $DOG Coin?</b></h5> 
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s hard to know where $dog is headed. Since $DOG operates like a school of fish moving as a collective group, no individual makes the decision; it just happens. But with this community, I only see it going one way: To the moon. Here is an easy guide about how to buy $DOG in the Xverse wallet:</span></p>
