This crypto influencer has once again confirmed his support for Dogecoin on its 9th birthday
Crypto podcaster David Gokhshtein, creator of Gokhshtein Media, has taken to Twitter to reaffirm his support for the original meme coin DOGE, which turns nine years old today.
Meanwhile, BSC whales keep adding Dogecoin to their stash, now holding over 87 million of it.
“Taking DOGE to the Next Level”
David Gochshtein referred to the DOGE developers, who are currently working hard to take Dogecoin “to the next level”. No further details were given, however, Gochstein stated that he is looking forward to it, thus reaffirming his support for the original Meme Coin.
As reported by U.Today earlier, currently there are two major upgrades for DOGE in the works – core update 1.14.7 and 1.21. The proposed time of release for the latter is March next year.
Earlier this year, the influencer and founder of his own crypto media multiple times expressed his positive opinion about Dogecoin, stating that he kept his DOGE bags and was waiting for their price to explode.
87 million DOGE settle in top BSC wallets
As per data shared by @WhaleStatsBSC, the largest 100 wallets on the Binance Smart Chain (also widely known as BNB Chain), have by now acquired a $8,514,930 worth of Dogecoin. This equates to 87,392,477 meme coins and comprises one percent of their cumulative portfolio.
At the moment, according to data provided by the WhaleStats website, the average balance of DOGE wrapped on BSC is 1,540,496 coins.
DOGE turns 9 years old
Today, Dogecoin celebrates its ninth birthday – it was created in 2013 by two IT engineers, Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer, as a joke and a parody on the flagship cryptocurrency Bitcoin.
According to the Dogecoin dev team, 9 years for a human is equivalent to 63 dog years and “a billion in crypto years”.
Currently, DOGE holds the eighth spot on the CoinMarketCap scale of cryptocurrencies, trading at $0.09591, dropping over 4 percent in the past 24 hours. This is 86.99 percent below the all-time high reached in 2021, when DOGE was trading at $0.7376 thanks to Elon Musk’s debut on Saturday Night Live show.
