Dogecoin DOGE/USD is by far one of the most popular and influential cryptocurrencies that started off its existence as a “meme token.”

Over time, cryptocurrency enthusiasts saw its value and now use it for everyday transfers of value, such as online shopping or for tipping content creators through a variety of different platforms.

On January 18, we covered how Dogecoin’s developer, Billy Markus, took a jab at Web3 again.

The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, Elon Musk, shared a tweet on January 20, 2022, where he showcased a “meme” inspired by the movie Interstellar, which is Christopher Nolan’s epic science fiction movie.

This meme is a reference to the instances where we saw extreme gravitational time dilation depicted in the movie. 

This time dilation concept, which is central to the plot of the movie, became a source of jokes within the crypto community due to the fact that cryptocurrencies can be quite volatile.

Specifically, throughout 2021, Dogecoin gained 19,090% within the span of three months.

This, in turn, sparked interest surrounding the DOGE token, which led to it increasing in value.
