**What is a **Meme

Meme has many interpretations. Earlier, Meme first appeared in Richard Dawkins’s “The Selfish Gene” in 1976, which defined Meme as a kind of cultural factor similar to genes that can be continuously inherited and spread at the level of human thought . As far as the official definition is concerned, the Oxford English Dictionary interprets it as “the basic unit of culture, which is transmitted through non-hereditary means, especially imitation”. For most people, a meme takes the more common form of those silly images on the internet that sarcastically or sarcastically mock (often very seriously) happenings in the world, like memes.

Combination of Meme** and Crypto**

The most famous combination of Meme and Crypto is Doge Coin, also known as Dogecoin. In 2013, Jackson Palmer wanted to make fun of the cryptocurrency hype at the time, so he put a Doge Meme on the cryptocurrency and tweeted: “Invest in Dogecoin, pretty sure it’s the next big thing”, and he Also bought the domain name of Dogecoin.com and uploaded a photo of Doge on the coin.

Palmer was contacted by software engineer Billy Marcus, who forked Bitcoin’s source code, created 100 billion Dogecoins, and rushed live. Marcus said that Dogecoin was created “without a lot of real thought,” and he can’t even understand large chunks of Bitcoin’s source code. But I didn’t expect Dogecoin with Meme nature to rise rapidly through Reddit. The tipping robot on Reddit brought Dogecoin the initial application scenario. In 2015, the two founders of Dogecoin chose to leave the community because they believed that Dogecoin had deviated from its original intention. Of course, the story of Dogecoin is not over. In December 2020, Musk began to tweet about Dogecoin. Since then, as long as he tweets about cryptocurrencies, the price of Dogecoin will rise . At the beginning of May 2021, Dogecoin rose to a maximum of $0.74. Musk has become the godfather of Dogecoin. It can be said that he is currently the most influential person in the Dogecoin community.
