Dogecoin surpasses Bitcoin in number of transactions

24 sec read

Dogecoin, the virtual currency which started as a bit of fun but has gathered some steam, is the most transacted cryptocurrency on the Web. Data from Bitinfocharts.com  shows that the number of Dogecoin transactions over the past 24 hours came in at 102,252, that’s some way ahead of more established currencies like Bitcoin (56,169) and Litecoin (9,329). 

Forums about the virtual currency dogecoin are getting excited about the fact that more dogecoins have been traded in the last 24 hours than bitcoins. In fact, the number of unique transactions in dogecoin — recently 94,310 in the last 24 hours — is more than all other virtual-currency transactions tracked by bitinfocharts.com. Or, in the words of one Reddit user, “so astound.”
