Dogecoin is an open-source, peer-to-peer digital currency, favored by users worldwide for its low transaction fees and fast processing times. It was created in December 2013 by software engineers Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer as a lighthearted and fun alternative to Bitcoin. Unlike a traditional company, Dogecoin is a decentralized project maintained by a community of volunteer developers and supported by the Dogecoin Foundation, a non-profit organization established to support the development and adoption of the cryptocurrency.
