Spawn of Dogecoin

^{Image made using HTML, CSS, Excel 2003, and MS Paint}

Depending on who you are, Dogecoin is the father or godfather of all memecoins, jokecoins, or shitcoins. With so many descendants of Dogecoin in cryptospace-- and more being added all the time-- it feels as if there are the major cryptos, and then these claimimg Dogecoin as their ancestor.

Stats

At the moment I began preparing for this post on Friday 16 July 2021, CoinMarketCap showed 10,749 cryptos. By the time I published this post on Saturday 17 July 2021, CoinMarketCap showed 10,933 cryptos.

Given this astounding number of cryptos, it feels as if the majority are imitations of Dogecoin in some way. The other day at Leo Market Talk I commented that there must be 500 to 1,000 of these critters out there and it would take me a long time to compile a list. Thinking it would take me days or even weeks, I began to compile that list of coins using some form of "Doge," "Shiba," "Inu," "Pup," and "Dog" in their names.

It took me a few hours to find 141 cryptos with any of those words in their names.

My Findings

A proper genealogy of each crypto would have taken more time than I was willing to commit. If anyone wants to produce such a genealogy, have at it!

Coins versus Tokens

The number of cryptos which are coins is minimal (including, well, Dogecoin). The rest of these 141 crypto assets are tokens.

Blockchains (Just Guessing)

It looks as if most of these tokens use Binance Coin or Binance Smart Chain, although a few seem to be based on Ethereum or Bitcoin. Further analysis-- beyond the scope of this post-- can confirm the blockchains used by these altcoins.

Fractional Values

Bitcoin uses 8 decimal places for its fractional units. SafeMoon uses 9 decimal places. It turns out that many of the Spawn of Dogecoin go to 10, 11, or even 12 decimal places. We can guess why that would be.

Prices

Most of the altcoin prices for the Spawn of Dogecoin are where we would expect them to be (Bitcoin circa 2011). Dogecoin itself has a price on par with many foreign currencies, not to mention the Hive cryptocurrency. However, I saw at least 1 of these altcoins with a price in Ethereum territory (DogeKiller-- LEASH).

Nomenclature and Imitation

One altcoin even seems to make use of (or at least borrowed the name of) Polygon (PolyDoge-- POLYDOGE). Even SafeMoon has its imitators among the Spawn of Dogecoin.

Many symbols match the cryptos they represent. Like the MATIC symbol used for Polygon, a number of altcoins here don't match; even here, many maintain the dog or Doge theme. A total mismatch or two are in that table.

Surprises? Maybe Not for These Cryptos

Included among the 141 Spawn of Dogecoin are cryptos which really need to be used in private, especially between the hours of 10:00pm and 5:00am. The names may give it away, but a visit to the URL provided can confirm any suspicions about the purpose of those cryptos.

Included in the table are columns for Asset (coin or token), the "class" of the crypto (Doge, Shiba, Inu, Pup, and Dog), the name of the crypto, its symbol, and a URL leadingg to a page which provides more information. Below is table:

Springboard (if not Launchpad) to Discovery

Although not as large as I had anticipated, 141 is still a large list of cryptos. Some of the Spawn of Dogecoin are more interesting than others for various reasons. To learn more about any of these, follow the link (or links) for each of these cryptos.

Over time, more cryptos will be officially launched or brought online. This post is meant only to give people an idea of what's out there and in what proportion to the total number of cryptocurrencies which exist at the moment.

Given its Top 10 or Top 20 ranking in Market Cap, I see nothing wrong with holding some DOGE if that's what you want. As for the Spawn of Dogecoin, only time will tell is any can become as popular and as in demand as its ancestor, Dogecoin.
