Funny enough, that attitude may make it more successful in the long term. History has shown many times that it's not always the 100% dead serious who make it, but those who are just, well...making it up as they go along.

  Well...there's that one operating system out there that got pretty popular after some guy in Finland posted it online. Name escapes me at the moment, though.

we can have serious hearing in Senate on BTC with outcome rules [almost] killing or seriously affecting it. Having a hearing and SEC/FBI enforcement on Doge? With Doge as a witness. Put you paw on the Bible and repeat after me ...

Lots of truth to this from a brand perspective, but the underlying technology of Dogecoin is pretty serious, it just happened to be deployed in a playful way. Not unlike the way that gaming technology or 4chan’s infrastructure is serious.

  4chan's infrastructure is serious, but it started out as a joke. Much of gaming technology was as well created for fun first. Anyway, I like it. Having to choose one business over another, ceteris paribus, I'd always go for the one with the sense of humour.
