As the Dogecoin community celebrates the infamous DOGE Day, an in-depth exploration unveils the history and significance of this infamous event alongside activities planned for today’s festivities.
Dogecoin Day Festivities Begin – Here’s The Scoop
DOGE Day 2024 is finally here, and the Dogecoin community celebrateS this famed event in various ways. This year, DOGE Day will be marked with numerous fun-themed activities, including a tribute to the beloved mascot, Kabosu, a Shiba Inu dog whose image inspired one of the internet’s most famous memes.
The 2024 edition of the DOGE Day will feature a full schedule of events, including a Halloween-themed party in Tokyo on October 31, followed by a guided tour and VIP cruise dinner around Tokyo Bay on November 1. The main DOGE Day event will occur on the annual celebration day, November 2, at the Sakura Furusato Square Park.
Here, members of the Dogecoin community can enjoy food, crafts, and live entertainment alongside speeches from prominent Dogecoin figures such as Atsuko Sato, the owner of Kabosu, the local Mayor, and other officials.
The Dogecoin team has also revealed that the main highlight of DOGE Day 2024 will be an attempt to set a world Guinness record for the “most dogs brushing their teeth simultaneously.” This scheduled Doge activity underscores the playful and community-focused side of the Dogecoin meme coin.
Origin Of The International DOGE Day
Interestingly, there are two infamous DOGE Days. The first, scheduled for April 20 every year focuses on bringing Dogecoin enthusiasts from around the globe to honor the 420 meme coin and celebrate its cultural impact on the broader crypto market.
The second DOGE Day, on the other hand, commemorates Dogecoin’s independence, marking the launch anniversary of the dog-themed meme coin in 2013, when it was created by software engineers Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer.
Despite starting as a fun joke that stood apart from Bitcoin (BTC), Dogecoin has grown over the years, solidifying its position as the number one meme coin with the largest market capitalization and most popularity.
The creation of this meme coin was inspired by the iconic Shiba Inu dog, Kabosu. Kabosu’s viral story and famous meme captured the attention of the internet, rallying various enthusiasts who found humor and inspiration from Kabosu’s story.
The International DOGE Day was first introduced in 2023, attracting over 500 attendees. As each year brings new highlights and fun events, participation in this annual celebration is set to grow as it gradually becomes a globally recognized holiday and celebration. With the 2024 DOGE Day finally here, the community looks forward to the planned activities for this year’s festivities.
