My advice would be to keep them.
Buying at 0.00000208 wasn't the best price to pick DOGE up at but it wasn't the worst.
DOGE is still making the headlines, I'm pretty sure it was only this week someone has put their house up for sale for DOGE, whilst there isn't anywhere near the amount of hype surrounding DOGE when it was first launched but that's to be expected.
DOGE has a huge following behind it, more than any other altcoin, it's been mentioned in the media more than any other altcoin in the past few months (only 2nd to bitcoin) and it has only reached its first block halving.
Besides what would you trade them in for? You could go back to BTC, sell on the highs/buy on the lows to recoup, any other altcoin will be just as much of a gamble IMO
Yea im not sure what I would trade them for, maybe look into darkcoin or the ethereum that poornamelessme spoke about. Im new to the scene and like most people, trying to just make some money, if I lose money so be it. I actually just stored all of my doge into an offline wallet so I may just keep them there for a few months and see what happens. I just want to know what other people are thinking and feeling about the investment
One thing you have to keep in mind is, you're not going to get rich quick. No matter what anyone tells you.
Is there a chance you will? Yes. About as much chance as you have of winning the jackpot on a scratcher.
Invest what you can afford to lose in a coin you have researched, multiple coins if possible. I would recommend listening to those that said hold until you recoup your investment, because Doge will go back up.
I've been following crypto for a while now and I still consider myself very new. Your friend likely told you to invest in Doge because he likes the Dogecoin community and all of the 15 year olds are constantly talking about how they're going to be millionaires. Currently, you bought high, but don't feel bad, when I first bought doge it was at 0.0000021. I've since recouped that investment by selling on ebay and investing in other alt coins.
Currently, I have some money in Maza. I got lucky (albeit, only with a small investment) and bought some at 0.00003600 and some more at 0.00005900, currently trading at 0.00012300 and got as high as 0.00019100 - I was going to sell, but cryptorush was being foolish. By the time I had the option to do anything, it wasn't worth it. I have since taken my initial investment out and I will hold these coins. Why? Because they actually have a mission. People saying it's a pump and dump say that about every coin they're not interested in - the fact is, this coin has a story, a purpose and a use, and could actually be something. It could be a scam, just like ever other coin and exchange could be, but of all the coins starting up right now it looks the most legit.
