How to Join the Dogecoin Frenzy Whether You're New to the Crypto How To Join The Dogecoin Frenzy Whether you’re new to the crypto industry or you’ve been around awhile, you may be aware of the now infamous Dogecoin. It’s the industry’s “parody coin”, meaning that it has no specific utility. No utility however doesn’t mean this coin isn’t worth a few dollars. Until a recent pullback in price, Dogecoin briefly broke the $2 billion mark in total value in the first week of 2018. So What The Heck Is Dogecoin? It’s a coin that people use for tipping. Its creator thought it would be funny to invent a coin based on a Shibu Inu dog named Doge, who’s stare down meme went viral online, particularly in Japan. While Doge has since passed away at the age of 16, Dogecoin continues to carry on his legacy. All of this is happening despite the fact the coding structure for the coin hasn’t been upgraded in over two years. The fact is Doge isn’t just a joke currency anymore. The Doge community has used the currency to sponsor NASCAR driver Josh Wise with over $67 million Dogecoins. Dogecoin also sponsored the Jamaican Bobsled team at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. How To Buy Dogecoin Many top cryptocurrency exchanges are no longer accepting new users due to overwhelming demand and slow verification processes. Luckily, Dogecoin has been around awhile and can be traded on many different exchanges including: CoinExchange.io Yobit CEX.io HitBTC Gate.io Mercatox For the purposes of getting you into the Dogecoin community as quickly as possible, we recommend using CoinExchange.io. Here’s what you need to do: 1) Register With CoinExchange.io Go to CoinExchange.io and click Register New User. Enter an email address and credentials only you can remember. When prompted, go into your email inbox and click the verification link sent to you. Once you’ve done that you’ll see the screen above where you can set up added security features that connect your smartphone to your CoinExchange account using Google Authenticator. 2) Deposit Coins CoinExchange.io doesn’t let users link their bank account to the exchange for deposits, so you have to have coins already in order to buy Dogecoin. Despite the fact altcoins are gaining on Bitcoin quickly, Bitcoin is still the most widely used cryptocurrency for trading online. To buy some Doge, all you need to do is click on the My Accounts tab in the right hand corner of any page, and then go to Balances. The next page will show you an Actions button on the far right where you can deposit Bitcoin. Once the transaction is confirmed and the BTC is on your CoinExchange account, you’ll stay on the same page and go to the far left clicking the Doge/BTC pairing in the BTC Markets box. 3) Ordering Dogecoin Once you’ve chosen the Doge/BTC market, you’ll be taken to this page: Notice the price movement chart in the center of the screen. To the right of that, you’ll see information about Dogecoin’s price and daily trade volume. Below that is where you will find the buy and sell order books. You can enter in the desired number of Dogecoins to buy and submit your order, or you can click on pending orders lower down on the page and the appropriate fields will automatically populate. 4) Setting up a Dogecoin Wallet Once you have your Dogecoin, you can send and receive the currency to a desktop wallet. Just go to the coin’s website. Download by selecting your operating system at the bottom of the homepage. Downloading the MultiDoge wallet means you won’t need to sync all of the data on the Doge network to your device. If you do want to store the whole blockchain, choose the core wallet. There you have it! By executing the steps in this guide you’ve now got a small piece of the so- called ‘joke coin’ that’s making waves all across the crypto world. Rest in peace Doge! .

  • A Survey on Volatility Fluctuations in the Decentralized Cryptocurrency Financial Assets
    Journal of Risk and Financial Management Review A Survey on Volatility Fluctuations in the Decentralized Cryptocurrency Financial Assets Nikolaos A. Kyriazis Department of Economics, University of Thessaly, 38333 Volos, Greece; [email protected] Abstract: This study is an integrated survey of GARCH methodologies applications on 67 empirical papers that focus on cryptocurrencies. More sophisticated GARCH models are found to better explain the fluctuations in the volatility of cryptocurrencies. The main characteristics and the optimal approaches for modeling returns and volatility of cryptocurrencies are under scrutiny. Moreover, emphasis is placed on interconnectedness and hedging and/or diversifying abilities, measurement of profit-making and risk, efficiency and herding behavior. This leads to fruitful results and sheds light on a broad spectrum of aspects. In-depth analysis is provided of the speculative character of digital currencies and the possibility of improvement of the risk–return trade-off in investors’ portfolios. Overall, it is found that the inclusion of Bitcoin in portfolios with conventional assets could significantly improve the risk–return trade-off of investors’ decisions. Results on whether Bitcoin resembles gold are split. The same is true about whether Bitcoins volatility presents larger reactions to positive or negative shocks. Cryptocurrency markets are found not to be efficient. This study provides a roadmap for researchers and investors as well as authorities.

  • Bitcoin & Other Virtual Currencies
    Delaware Attorney General Investor Protection Unit Investor Advisory: Bitcoin & Other Virtual Currencies Virtual currencies, which include digital and crypto-currencies, are gaining in both popularity and controversy. Virtual currencies can offer lower transaction fees and greater anonymity. However, virtual currencies can carry substantial risk. Virtual currencies have fluctuated wildly in value, investors have had their investments in virtual currencies stolen by hackers, and MtGox, previously the largest virtual currency exchange, recently shut down after losing more than $350 million of Bitcoin. What is Virtual Currency? Virtual currency is an electronic medium of exchange that, unlike real money, is not controlled or backed by a central government or central bank. Virtual currencies include crypto-currencies such as Bitcoin, Ripple, Litecoin, Peercoin, and Dogecoin. Such currencies can be bought or sold through virtual currency exchanges and used to purchase goods or services where accepted. Even though some companies and individuals may accept a virtual currency as a monetary equivalent, the Internal Revenue Service has announced that it would treat virtual currency as “property” and not “currency” for tax purposes. Risks Associated with Virtual Currency As with all investments, those tied to virtual currency have risk. However, buying and trading in virtual currencies carries unique risks that are not found in other investments. Some common concerns and issues you should consider before investing in any virtual currency include: Virtual currencies are not legal tender, so stores, internal controls and may be more susceptible to websites or people do not have to accept them as a fraud and theft than regulated financial institutions. form a payment.

Hancyecz did not pay a fellow internet-user in U.S. dollars for the pizza, or any other national currency for that matter—he paid BTC10,000 (bitcoin).

While gaining market valuations of billions of dollars and generating much popular press in doing so, little has been academically published on the Computer Science / Information Systems (CS/IS) foundations of this phenomena. This paper describes these foundations. In doing so, it is hoped that the success of the cryptocurrency payment systems can be used to demonstrate to CS/IS students how computer theory can be integrated into other disciplines with dramatic results.

  • The Rise and Fall of Cryptocurrencies
    The Rise and Fall of Cryptocurrencies Amir Feder∗ Neil Gandal Berglas School of Economics Berglas School of Economics Tel Aviv University, Israel Tel Aviv University, Israel [email protected] [email protected] JT Hamrick Tyler Moore Tandy School of Computer Science Tandy School of Computer Science The University of Tulsa, USA The University of Tulsa, USA [email protected] [email protected] Marie Vasek Department of Computer Science University of New Mexico, USA [email protected] July 30, 2018 Abstract Since Bitcoin's introduction in 2009, interest in cryptocurrencies has soared. One manifestation of this interest has been the explosion of newly created coins. This paper examines the dynamics of coin creation, competition and destruction in the cryptocurrency industry. In order to conduct the analysis, we develop a methodology to identify peaks in prices and trade volume, as well as when coins are abandoned and subsequently \resurrected". We study trading activity associated with 1 082 coins over a nearly five-year period. We present evidence that the more frequently traded coins experience the biggest price rises. They are also much less likely to be abandoned, that is, to experience a drop in average trading volume to below 1% of a prior peak value. Overall, we find that 44% of publicly-traded coins are abandoned, at least temporarily. 71% of abandoned coins are later resurrected, leaving 18% of coins to fail permanently. We then examine the association between entry and exit and other key variables such as price, volume, and market capitalization in order to analyze and provide intuition underpinning the fundamentals in this market.

We compare it to the current Bitcoin (BTC) (12/11/17) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) hash-rate oscillations and consider whether we can learn any lessons from history.

There appear to be three examples of significant hash-rate oscillations caused by this kind of setup: Year Coins Hashing algorithm 2014 Litecoin (LTC) vs Dogecoin (DOGE) Scrypt 2016 Ethereum (ETC) vs Ethereum Classic (ETC) EtHash 2017 Bitcoin (BTC) vs Bitcoin Cash (BCH) SHA256 (Source: BitMEX Research) A comparison of the 2014 Litecoin (LTC) versus Dogecoin (DOGE) hash-rate oscillations with the 2017 Bitcoin (BTC) versus Bitcoin Cash (BCH) oscillations may reveal some lessons. In early 2014, Dogecoin enjoyed a sudden, meteoric increase in price (figure 1).
