I did not know this. Thanks for the information. So do this make a currency like Doge more attractive as a long term solution? Will BitCoin be a one hit wonder per se?
I'd like the coin to take off as an actual currency, and of the coins I've looked at, I think it has the most potential for adoption in that respect.
But I don't think it's got the ecosystem to support that right now. A metamask-style doge wallet would do wonders for this.
Also, knowing little to nothing about the backend (or other crypto backends, tbh), other than that it's derived from Bitcoin - I have concerns about scalability wrt transaction settlement times, power consumption, and ease-of-entry with self-hosted wallets.
