Get over yourself. Such mad.

I am not upset. I am horrendously disappointed. I suppose Bitcoiners had a similiar disrespect for HN when they came flooding in ~3 years ago, too.

Just imagine how much more time could be devoted to discussion about how many iPhones does the founder of Path really have.

The signal to buy was when Dogecoin volume doubled Bitcoin volume. You had a couple days before the world realized how underpriced Doge was. Doge was around 45-50 Satoshis then. Funding the Jamaican bobsled team, and tapping into Cool Runnings millenial nostalgia was a great PR move by the Doge community. The recent price correction is probably due to mining pools jumping in when profitability soared before difficult…

And yet every day HN is filled with people talking about the things that they like to talk about, and having a nice time doing so, all in their own little space here on this site. For the most part, users like to keep this place intelligent and spam-free.

Want to spam Doge-related comments? I can only imagine that that is what /r/Dogecoin is for. Why bring it here?

Such cynicism.

Please. This is HN, and you know it. Your account was registerd over 2,000 days ago. Stop with the pointless comments.

My comment does technically have correct grammar and stand on its own as a valid criticism of your comment, which to me is what makes it especially funny. Everybody posting "wow" as a response to you... not so much.

That's how I felt about Dogecoin at first, but their silliness seems to have generated an unusually nice community. I'm starting to think that's a more important factor than I'd realized. It's taken them to #7 in market cap, despite being technically a straight copy of Litecoin. http://coinmarketcap.com/

The community, and particularly the generosity of tipping, seems to have been a driving factor. There are already multiple "tipping bots" on Twitter, which will give out Doge on command. There's speculation that a similar functionality for Facebook would be like strapping SRB's to the side of the Doge moonrocket, and give it Much Velocity.

We'll see how long this lasts if Dogecoins become worth a lot more. BTC used to be like this, too, with many "Bitcoin faucets" dispensing coins at will just for entering an address.

First off: deleted_account is not my username, you were not responding to my comment.

Second: The sentence "I am." technically has correct grammar, but doesn't serve the benefit of anybody reading HN. As does this recently similar comment with many downvotes: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7104994

You should have just hit the downvote or flag button if you thought that OPs comment was truly cynical.

How exactly was deleted_account being cynical anyways by asking the question "Can we officially declare that crypto-currencies have jumped the shark?"?

I do not think you understand the meaning of the word "cynicism" or what it is "to be cynical".
