The block reward halving solves the problem you mentionned about there being "too many damned coin" Wink
When this will happen, Doge won't be the most profitable coin to mine anymore, so all the instant-dump multipools will switch to another coin. The miners who will remain with Doge are more likely to hold, so less selling pressure.
And keep in mind that about 60% of the world's doges have already been mined (other than the quite small inflation that will happen after; eternal block reward of 10000 vs. 250000 now), and block halvings are happening relatively frequently, so it will indeed be a "rare" coin in a few months.

And publicity does have an impact on price. It attracts new buyers, who are intriged by how ridiculously awesome it is that there's a Nascar car with a doge on it Wink Also, this makes investors have more confidence in Doge; it shows that it has an active community who's willing to support it to great lenght.

No, you don't get it. There are ALREADY too many coins. Slowing the flow of them doesn't do anything about that problem.

As for the publicity... yeah I doubt too many people at a nascar race are going to give 3 shits about "doge." Besides, my point is that if you set aside opinions and look at the facts, the price hasn't increased when each of these big publicity stunts has happened, not the recent ones. The bobsled thing had some impact, now no one cares. You can't possibly think a freaking NASCAR event is bigger than the olympics, can you? The olympics sponsorship was a much bigger deal and the price still kept dropping.

Every time they say "block reward halving coming up!" it has ZERO impact on price. Every time they say "XYZ new publicity stunt is coming!" it also has ZERO impact on price.

Look like I said I am a doge holder but I am trying to be realistic here and blind faith doesn't serve you well in crypto. The biggest problem doge has is just TOO MANY DAMNED COINS! There is way too much out there already and more being mined every day. It makes it very hard for the price to fight all the downward sell pressure and this coin will never be "rare."

Hahahaha and go back to newbie hell where every time you try to post it says "you have to wait 180 seconds to post" even though it's actually been like ten minutes since you last posted? Nooooo way.



so has bitcoin but it will grow

And Dogecoin has a much bigger growth potential than Bitcoin. Many of those who buy doge do it simply for fun and not at an investment, so they'll buy at any price. Plus, there'll be "The Halvening" of the block reward in a few week. And all the publicity from the Dogecar on Nascar. The moon is near.

Unfortunately all these efforts don't seem to have much of a discernible impact on dogecoin values. The first one or two events made an impact but now they don't seem to matter, even the Sochi Olympics sponsorships they did failed to stop the coin from continuing to plummet in value.

Man with a "doge" in his nickname questions doges power - much wow.

LOL I don't know why everyone keeps making such a big deal of that. The day I signed up, I was mining doge. I just made a random not-that-serious nickname and now everyone acts like I think I'm some integral part of the doge community - I'm not. And I don't blindly support coins I have mined or bought like 90% of other people on here do. If it is doing shitty, I say so, whether I am still holding or not.

I am still holding some doge but I am not optimistic about it's value. It has done crappy for months. That is a fact.

Everything grows when btc grows.

I would say - not everything Smiley and this is very good. It would be just too easy if any other coin will rise just when BTC is rising.

Smiley

Check charts - not everything. Some. Some not.

And which ones are not? Didn't find any.

check coinmarketcap.com

ripple,namecoin,blackcoin,counterparty,zetacoin,infinitecoin,novacoin etc. etc. are still losing value  Undecided

biggest growth in TOP 15, dogecoin +22.79 % Cheesy

All of this coins are relatively new.

Also, DOGE to the moon Grin

It's amazing how Doge has about 0.6% of BTC's market cap, and yet probably gives as much to charity.

One reason may be that each individual Doge is of very low value. This encourages microdonations.

The whole funny concept may also contribute to donations, because users don't focus so much on value - they're just in for the fun.
