What’s next for Dogecoin?
Dogecoin is one of the most volatile digital currencies on the market today with a very reactive community. At the moment, the currency’s momentum is determined by the overall pace of the market, with the main determinant being Bitcoin (BTC).
For their part, Dogecoin developers are considering introducing smart contract features into MyDogeWallet. Two of the planned features include Doginals and DRC-20 with updates to be rolled out to the wallet browser extension.
With more entrenched ecosystem functionalities, a new avenue of demand can be created for Dogecoin, benefiting the entire meme coin community.
