It does. But with Musk you never know. I'm afraid of something silly like Doge.

Honestly, how hard would it be to 51% attack Dogecoin?
It has very low hash rate and very low number of nodes, right?
I want to put this dog down, and I feel like we could do it with just a little tiny bit of effort. Let's show the world why Bitcoin is better. Let's crowdfund a 51% attack on that puny little network and make Elon realize why Bitcoin is king.
Would anyone back such a crowdfunding effort??

I've always thought Doge was a troll, it would be quite epic if he builds Bitcoin into Twitter and they become a payment provider.
He's indeed a wildcard so you never know, but I'm excited to find out.

The Dogecoin protocol is creating 10,000 new Doge tokens every MINUTE and has no cap EVER.
Bitcoin creates 6 "tokens" per 10 minutes and is capped at 21 Million, with a halving cycle every 4 years.
I'm not sure how anyone can take Doge seriously for more than a day trade.
