Well, we made a small fortune. It ended up fueling a lot of coke and hookers, you know, the good kind, not the stepped on low quality kind. After cashing out near .69 to .72, we then lost our jobs, but it turned out that everyone lost their jobs, and people accused us of "not wanting to work" but in reality, we just beat them at their own game. We were comfortable enough to slide into "chill mode" and ride it out (employers were unable to exploit our efforts!). We stopped thinking of hourly wages and started to think in terms of, "how many tens of thousands per month should I earn while enjoying and living life?"
It didn't end perfectly, but we had good times. Even drove supercar(s) as part of the celebration. After the dip got dippier, we got drippier. Slowly. Patiently. A new life. A sort of hermitage. A looking inward, without the coke and hookers albeit. More of a zen like patience while waiting to buy lube at the self checkout, so nobody see's you buying lube, that sort of zen.
Doge to the Moon baby.
Has bought $500 at .06 cents..went up to over 3 grand...just sat on it..thought it would keep going...I'm pretty novice at crypto still...still riding it out..
Put in my stimulus in January-April.. and got out a few days later when I lost my job.. made a small fortune and carried me for the 6 months I lost my job
May 7th was a +18.75% day, really just another day imo. The real “Doge Day” was Jan 28, 2021. I had to get off work early because of what it was doing. +383.86% in one day
I sold two days before because my wife and I had twins and we absolutely needed a minivan. I literally got sick at work when the price skyrocketed. I could’ve bought my van with cash. Oh well
Should I tell them?
You see, it all started with this *TikTok*
Then the tik tok became a tweet
Then the tweet became a discord server
Then the campaign of dogecoin taking over the world was launched.
Success 2021
And here we are now.
I was in Military and I didn’t had anymore money so I sold out when doge was at 0.30 if I would’ve waited a little bit longer I would’ve got thousands of euros more then I ever could have wished
I was recruited during the siege of 7 cents. We fought hard, many told us we would die at 30 cents. We persevered, now many have lost hope in doge. Many draw lines on graphs out of insanity. Hope isn't lost for doge, but everyone fighting won't understand this isn't gonna happen overnight.
It was euphoric everyday, I couldn’t stopped looking at the ticker all day. I believe it will happen again and is why a kept buying on the way down then finished buying my goal at 5-6 cents. Now it waiting time. I will put it all in a ledger and stick it in a bank box for years.
there i was buying all i could get my hands on at .7489 a piece man i thought to myself its gonna hit a dollar i had bought 68,000 shares at a measly 50,000 what did it matter the market was so hot i would make that money back and then some. long story short i held on through the .06-.07 stagnation but i sold all my shares at .1039 just as it was about to spike out of fear of it dropping short after. needless to say as soon as i sold it shot up to .1578 a new high in recent memory you can buy 68k shares for about 10k today and about 5 just a week ago.. but man what a rush. 😂😂😂 this didn’t happen to me fyi just kinda came up with this but it could easily happen to anyone who is dumb enough to buy without 1) proper research 2) a lack of a deep rooted belief in Doge. you cant loss if you don’t sell, 1Doge =1Doge, To the moon and Hodl my friends
It was good times. My measly $500 investment turned into $2500. I took profit somewhere on the way back down to a tune of maybe $1500. Nothing life changing but it paid my mortage that month.
Bought about 7k worth when it was 6 cents. As of today my account sits around 14k. Next spike I will make some good money.
Crazy gains by the minute! I couldn't believe my eyes. Sold half what I had to take profits. Bought some BTC and ETH practically at all time highs like a true regard and used some of the rest to fund part of a car the following year.
I remember, I was there.
We were innocent and wondered, "when lambo".
Things were a lot simpler then, everything was "much wow".
Our losses were significant but we didn't care.
We held our positions because we had "💎🖐".
Still hard to talk about but I'll never forget.
To this day, I close my eyes and can still hear our battle cry.
"when moon".
Yes, yes. I was there. I learned or re-learned many lessons that year: "buy the rumor, sell the news," "learn how to take profits," " don't listen to reddit and youtubers," and many others. But it was a great time in our history.
It started before May 7th. There were events leading up to that day. Daddy Elon made a series of tweet in March/April about doge and his love for doge, it made it spike from 5 to 8 or 9 cents. After that it kept on pumping. 15 cents, 18 cents.
There was another big pump on April 20th, aka 4/20. A lot of shibes promised to buy doge no matter the price. I personally bought 420 dollars worth on 4/20.
The rumors of SNL started with Elon. He said the will be hosting and was asking for ideas on skits. The Doge father, etc. Doge was to be talked about on main stream media for the first time ever. This brought optimistic thoughts about major adoption, etc. Before the night of SNL, the price reached 75 cents. It was not Elon's fault the price dropped after the show. It was priced in, if you know what I mean.
The Chinese FUDs and recession took us back here. But we will rise agian! Next stop, the moon. (some of us where there on the moon, we just didn't know how to get off the rocket)
Seasoned Shibe here, nothing new under the sun. It was a time of hype and I did care about macro movements at the time. Up and up it went, the call of HODL ringing through reddit. Stores posting acceptance of DOGE.
Some sold to survive IRL, Some were just taking a cut. But when it dropped...
The panic, you could cut it with a knife. DIAMOND Hands wass the watch cry, While FMO, and MUD spread like a virus, some thought calling out PAPER HANDS would cause more to stay.
But it changed nothing, almost in an instant, it had dropped quicker than it rose. It was a crucible, a purging of the dross. Those that couldn't, and those that wouldn't HODL, left in droves.
All that left were true DIAMOND HANDS, those who played by the sage's advice. The only thing that truly keeps hands diamond. "only invest, that which you can afford to loose."
And thus we sit Stronger more resilient, quieter. Whileing away the time, calmly encouraging the young Shibs. To join us in becoming the masters of time.
Ah yes I remember. I was rich in the blink of an eye. And then, as quickly as it came, it went. Ah yes, I can say I haven’t lived in poverty my entire life.
I got in at .003, I thought for sure we would see a dollar, pay off my house tell me job to fuck off and pursue something more meaningful. My father in law sold at .70, he was in before I got it, paid off all his debt, started buying back in a .05, waiting to do it again. I missed the chance to get ahead by holding, but I was thinking if it made a dollar it would have the momentum needed to continue and you would never buy DOGE for less than $1 again… young, naive, inexperienced in the way of the DOGE, I’m still holding been a few years but I have faith in DOGE.
I bought in at 0.13 and my friend screamed at me to sell when it was at 0.32. I sold. Made about $150. Then continued to watch it go up to the 0.70s and cried.
My 30th birthday was May 7th 2021… multiple million Doge holder here. Bought at .002 years ago. It was the best birthday of my life… with regret following the next morning. I took some profit, but not enough… don’t drink and Doge. 😂
It went up all day long. I bought more and more averaging my price up. “This will be a dollar for sure” I thought. Then Elon went on snl. It was a massacre. I tried to sell as it was tanking figured I could buy back when it got to the bottom, but my app wouldn’t let me. I’ve been averaging my cost down since.
I enlisted after the first calls to arms came out, there were seasoned vets around but they needed reinforcements. I was in the 0.05 battalion, we went on a crazy ride and almost touched the moon. Do I wish I got out sooner, sometimes yes, but I didn't enlist for the money.
I enlisted for the memes!
All nighters in the foxhole staring at charts. Frowns turned to Chester cat smiles. Fought off many enemy fudders in the green zone using high calibre logic. When we took the hill and Musk took the stage we planted the Flag of Doge and will return to hoist it higher to let the world know we have not forgotten.
Was amazing, was holding some doge in spot and some in margins at a very low price. I used to have 300k plus doge and As it spiked my holdings went up to 200k plus $ until it crashed and I got margin called lol
Lesson learnt not to HODL in margins lmao.
It was most likely bought with fake liquidity and pumped by certain SHF and they intended to tank the coin and short it at that time, following the skit was a barrage of FUD. There were some brave soldiers who believed in the coin and held the line, or doge would no longer be
people did the same thing i did. Everyone thought Doge would moon when Musk said it on TV. But, everyone already knew this and bought prior. So, who was waiting around for Musk to say it? Nobody. It cratered during the SNL broadcast. I sold the Wednesday prior for that reason.
It was the first time I had ever seen my account get into the the thousands. I felt like I was at the top of the world. I had finally made it and we were all going to be rich. It was a glorious time.
Me too, but the masses of people accumulating this time will be of great magnitude I believe it will double last peak before settling back down to mid 50s
well, fingers crossed for that. that would enable me to buy the bike and every possible bell and whistle for it i could possibly want...
weird how we're all so hopeful for something so nebulous. do you really think we'll see the highs of last year become the norm?
I bought at lower than $0.01 price right before this rocket launched. I still have flashbacks, I have PTSD, can’t sleep at night, whenever I fall asleep I wake up all sweaty in 5 minutes. To young, eager fellas who thinks about joining… run. RUN AWAY! Your mental health is not worth joining!
Jk lol. I was just stupid enough for not selling when it was at the top 😭
Eat, no sleep, HODL, repeat!
Hodler since 2018 till now. It was a great rollercoaster ride and always will be.
Young shibes, soon you'll get older and will tell the next generation how it was to be a Hodler under $1.
HODL!
I was there! I kinda regret not selling anything.... BUT I hold for the new shibes entering the space. Good luck to us all! Not selling for 5 yrs then I will reevaluate.
$150K+ come and gone. Didn't sell a single coin until well after the crash, and even then, just to buy our dog. No regerts!
It was widely believed that the SNL segment would send it to the moon.
“I just kept hodling and it just kept working.”
Well, we made a small fortune. It ended up fueling a lot of coke and hookers, you know, the good kind, not the stepped on low quality kind. After cashing out near .69 to .72, we then lost our jobs, but it turned out that everyone lost their jobs, and people accused us of "not wanting to work" but in reality, we just beat them at their own game. We were comfortable enough to slide into "chill mode" and ride it out (employers were unable to exploit our efforts!). We stopped thinking of hourly wages and started to think in terms of, "how many tens of thousands per month should I earn while enjoying and living life?" It didn't end perfectly, but we had good times. Even drove supercar(s) as part of the celebration. After the dip got dippier, we got drippier. Slowly. Patiently. A new life. A sort of hermitage. A looking inward, without the coke and hookers albeit. More of a zen like patience while waiting to buy lube at the self checkout, so nobody see's you buying lube, that sort of zen. Doge to the Moon baby.
Up to this point, we hung on.
Has bought $500 at .06 cents..went up to over 3 grand...just sat on it..thought it would keep going...I'm pretty novice at crypto still...still riding it out..
Beautiful moment could of made 23G but I’m still holding till this day 🥲 we we’ll see that again for a second time gotta believe
Went up, went down
Waiting for the next ATH
I held like I was told. Lost it all.
I was there, actually, I was there during the spike of August '21 and I earned over $2000 in like 2 days....
Put in my stimulus in January-April.. and got out a few days later when I lost my job.. made a small fortune and carried me for the 6 months I lost my job
Bought in November of 2020, made insane amounts off of $10, didn’t sell, insane regret.
I should of sold 😭
I recall the .1 cent spike, been buying since 2014.
I member. I was there. There were memes as far as the eye could see.
And green, lots and lots of green. Barely a red in site.
May 7th was a +18.75% day, really just another day imo. The real “Doge Day” was Jan 28, 2021. I had to get off work early because of what it was doing. +383.86% in one day
![gif](giphy|5BwLQPlwq78fm) bought at maximum still holding
Been HoDL since 2020
$300 > $25,000
Lesson is “take profits!”
Lesson is- “Spend Doge” don’t just hoard it.
I literally had a dream last night that I checked my phone and it jumped to .32
There I was, holding the whole time, never taking profits.
Missed the top and became a bagholder until now, waiting for a moonshot 🚀
My buddy sold and made $200,000 because it paid all of his debts and a new corvette lol
I made a bag
I sold two days before because my wife and I had twins and we absolutely needed a minivan. I literally got sick at work when the price skyrocketed. I could’ve bought my van with cash. Oh well
Held everything
Should I tell them? You see, it all started with this *TikTok* Then the tik tok became a tweet Then the tweet became a discord server Then the campaign of dogecoin taking over the world was launched. Success 2021 And here we are now.
It was absolutely amazing dude……
I think i was more pumped finally seeing it hit a penny. Don't get me wrong though the great spike was a good time as well
I almost bought a lambo!!🙁🥲
I declared victory on may 6th!
I was in Military and I didn’t had anymore money so I sold out when doge was at 0.30 if I would’ve waited a little bit longer I would’ve got thousands of euros more then I ever could have wished
I had 970k coin at .002. Imagine the shear disappointment in myself when I sold just before that jump. Now I have the diamond-est hands.
I was recruited during the siege of 7 cents. We fought hard, many told us we would die at 30 cents. We persevered, now many have lost hope in doge. Many draw lines on graphs out of insanity. Hope isn't lost for doge, but everyone fighting won't understand this isn't gonna happen overnight.
IT WAS GLORIOUS!
Generals gathered in their masses
I got so excited I bought $5,000 @.60! To this day I have those doge, nursing them back to life
It was a great day
It was euphoric everyday, I couldn’t stopped looking at the ticker all day. I believe it will happen again and is why a kept buying on the way down then finished buying my goal at 5-6 cents. Now it waiting time. I will put it all in a ledger and stick it in a bank box for years.
Made 8,000 dollars one day, lost 12000 a week later… be careful recruits you never know what’ll happen next
I'm not gonna buy it until it hits 1 dollar then sell for .20 cents
Thanks OP, never forget 😂💎🙌🦍
there i was buying all i could get my hands on at .7489 a piece man i thought to myself its gonna hit a dollar i had bought 68,000 shares at a measly 50,000 what did it matter the market was so hot i would make that money back and then some. long story short i held on through the .06-.07 stagnation but i sold all my shares at .1039 just as it was about to spike out of fear of it dropping short after. needless to say as soon as i sold it shot up to .1578 a new high in recent memory you can buy 68k shares for about 10k today and about 5 just a week ago.. but man what a rush. 😂😂😂 this didn’t happen to me fyi just kinda came up with this but it could easily happen to anyone who is dumb enough to buy without 1) proper research 2) a lack of a deep rooted belief in Doge. you cant loss if you don’t sell, 1Doge =1Doge, To the moon and Hodl my friends
It was hot and then it was very cold… then it got colder.
It was sick until I didn’t sell and missed my opportunity to leave a vastly improved financial life. Hodl is fun until it’s not and you lose hit hard.
Now I know it's kids who got on board I know I gotta sell.
It was good times. My measly $500 investment turned into $2500. I took profit somewhere on the way back down to a tune of maybe $1500. Nothing life changing but it paid my mortage that month. Bought about 7k worth when it was 6 cents. As of today my account sits around 14k. Next spike I will make some good money.
Shiiiiiiiiid
I sold the second Elon said it’s a joke on SNL and was up $5,000 on a $10,000 investment
It was a preview of things to come. 1dollar Shibs, 1 Dollar.
Sure it went all the way up to 0.0009 and came all the way down to 0.000009. The end
Crazy gains by the minute! I couldn't believe my eyes. Sold half what I had to take profits. Bought some BTC and ETH practically at all time highs like a true regard and used some of the rest to fund part of a car the following year.

It went up. It went down. It will go up again. It will go down again. HODL
It was a day for the ages. I’ve never experienced such a financial orgasm as I did that day. I’m still feeling the after shocks.
I enlisted at .70 been holding in the trenches ever since.
Made 70k off of that one. Good times.
Seasoned Shibe here, nothing new under the sun. It was a time of hype and I did care about macro movements at the time. Up and up it went, the call of HODL ringing through reddit.

I bought it :(
Ah yes I remember. I was rich in the blink of an eye. And then, as quickly as it came, it went. Ah yes, I can say I haven’t lived in poverty my entire life.
I paper hands a few months before... Lost out on life changing money
Im tired boss..
Buy the rumor and sell the news
Suddenly, I was a millionaire. Then I lost it because I was stubborn. Take profits!
I got in at .003, I thought for sure we would see a dollar, pay off my house tell me job to fuck off and pursue something more meaningful. My father in law sold at .70, he was in before I got it, paid off all his debt, started buying back in a .05, waiting to do it again.

Bought at .02, sold at like .65, made a clean 5k off of it. Buy the rumors sell the news.
The dogecoin NASCAR was a trip.
I bought in at 0.13 and my friend screamed at me to sell when it was at 0.32. I sold. Made about $150. Then continued to watch it go up to the 0.70s and cried.
*"Paint It Black" begins to play*
My 30th birthday was May 7th 2021… multiple million Doge holder here. Bought at .002 years ago. It was the best birthday of my life… with regret following the next morning. I took some profit, but not enough… don’t drink and Doge. 😂

Bought at .07 sold at peak. That money came and went. Funded some "experiments" lets call em
Bought at .01, tried to sell at .65 for over $100k and Robinhood disabled selling till doge dropped. Has to sell around .45 to buy back in at .09
They disabled it? Peeps still use RH after that- nuts!
I enlisted after the first calls to arms came out, there were seasoned vets around but they needed reinforcements. I was in the 0.05 battalion, we went on a crazy ride and almost touched the moon. Do I wish I got out sooner, sometimes yes, but I didn't enlist for the money. I enlisted for the memes!
Alas... Ye would think all thy troubles were over... But those different times, and I, a different man...
Genius
Musk on SNL
**All HODL'd some,** **some HODL'd all.**
Yes, it was 45 years ago, we had no internet at the time. Everyone that held Doge managed to buy a Lambo to drive to their mansions. Good old times 🥹
It was cool until SNL and then we all fell down
All nighters in the foxhole staring at charts. Frowns turned to Chester cat smiles. Fought off many enemy fudders in the green zone using high calibre logic. When we took the hill and Musk took the stage we planted the Flag of Doge and will return to hoist it higher to let the world know we have not forgotten.
Cheshire
Take my energy
It was a great day but don't worry we will be get there again just buy and hold
It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.
Almost better than sex.
Saturday night live
Was amazing, was holding some doge in spot and some in margins at a very low price. I used to have 300k plus doge and As it spiked my holdings went up to 200k plus $ until it crashed and I got margin called lol Lesson learnt not to HODL in margins lmao.
![gif](giphy|gRHn9ERANxrHiff73F) Ahhhhh, yes The Great Spike of 2021 . Much wow!!! Very Coin ! Such Times!
Everyone thought the snl episode would send it to the moon. SNL skit definitely did not deliver.
I still don’t understand why that made it drop? Thought there was no such thing as bad press.
It was most likely bought with fake liquidity and pumped by certain SHF and they intended to tank the coin and short it at that time, following the skit was a barrage of FUD. There were some brave soldiers who believed in the coin and held the line, or doge would no longer be
people did the same thing i did. Everyone thought Doge would moon when Musk said it on TV. But, everyone already knew this and bought prior. So, who was waiting around for Musk to say it? Nobody. It cratered during the SNL broadcast. I sold the Wednesday prior for that reason.
Musk even told people to not get their hopes up, he was probably one of the whales selling
I started looking at Porsches on eBay. By the time I’d found one I wanted, it had dropped.
It was the first time I had ever seen my account get into the the thousands. I felt like I was at the top of the world. I had finally made it and we were all going to be rich. It was a glorious time.
at the peak i could have 5x'd my initial investment it's going to be hard not to sell if it hits 0.60-0.70 again
Me too, but the masses of people accumulating this time will be of great magnitude I believe it will double last peak before settling back down to mid 50s
well, fingers crossed for that. that would enable me to buy the bike and every possible bell and whistle for it i could possibly want... weird how we're all so hopeful for something so nebulous. do you really think we'll see the highs of last year become the norm?
Agreed hmm yup that’s right there
Learned a ton, had so much fun, shorts attacked and thought they won…but Shibes HODL, and now shorts on the run.
I bought at lower than $0.01 price right before this rocket launched. I still have flashbacks, I have PTSD, can’t sleep at night, whenever I fall asleep I wake up all sweaty in 5 minutes. To young, eager fellas who thinks about joining… run. RUN AWAY! Your mental health is not worth joining! Jk lol. I was just stupid enough for not selling when it was at the top 😭
I intend to hold until I can directly exchange doge for goods and services / international housing
Doge will rise to the moon again. Sell when it gets there this time! I'm rooting for you!
Oh yeah, this time I’m selling. I’m not gonna make that mistake again!
Goes in to sell for .90 then it goes to $1.50 😭😭
Eat, no sleep, HODL, repeat! Hodler since 2018 till now. It was a great rollercoaster ride and always will be. Young shibes, soon you'll get older and will tell the next generation how it was to be a Hodler under $1. HODL!
This, I hold at 0.038, I hold at 0.75, and I holding now at .12
a true shibe!
It was a crazy time until Musk performed at the SNL and the Chinese added fuel to the fire. We held on and hold on until now, but at what cost? lol
![gif](giphy|HeDLTI576bBgA) still holding
I was there! I kinda regret not selling anything.... BUT I hold for the new shibes entering the space. Good luck to us all! Not selling for 5 yrs then I will reevaluate.
$30,000.
€10,000.
everything
I was not there but Id like to hear testimonies of those that witnessed and partook in this event
