There has been a lot of talk around cryptocurrencies, particuarly Bitcoin. But, there is another cryptocurrency called Dogecoin.

1. Dogecoin mining is unlimited.

There has been quite a bit of talking around block halvings, the technique that the Bitcoin software uses to control the supply of coins. Although Dogecoin used block halvings in the beginning, this was just to create a supply base of around 95 billion coins. (There are 115 billion coins now and there is a linear inflation rate of 5 billion coins per year.) If you mine a block of dogecoin after the first two years, you get 10,000 dogecoins each time, year after year. (If you mine a block of bitcoin, you will get much less if you mine another one one decade later.) This inflation creates an incentive to buy more coins and keep the coins circulating. (The coins are being made at a lower rate than dollars are made.)

2. Dogecoin's mascot is cute. (my opinion)

5. BONUS: There is a game!
