The post was inspired by the recent news that the 10,000 Bitcoin spent by Laszlo Hanyecz, who bought pizza with BTC in 2010, would have now turned into $1 billion.
The post emphasized Dogecoin payment utility which, as they believe, surpasses that of the world’s largest cryptocurrency, Bitcoin.
However, now, those 10,000 BTC — if they had not been spent on the pizzas — would have cost $1 billion and perhaps would still have been owned by Hanyecz.
Dogecoin’s post says that one can also buy a pizza with DOGE without having to worry that the meme coins one had spent would one day surge to $1 billion in fiat. They stressed that, perhaps unlike Bitcoin, Dogecoin is “a currency designed for everyday transactions, not grownup’s fairy-tales.” Dogecoin exists “for regular people,” the X post stressed.
That canvas was used during a speech by Senator Joni Ernst (IA) of the Republican Party. She spoke about the harsh necessity of cutting down extensive government spending and praising D.O.G.E — the Department of Government Efficiency spearheaded by billionaire entrepreneurs Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy.
“Doge is inevitable,” the Senator proclaimed during her speech. On the canvas, Doge is overtaking Washington, D.C. She urged other politicians to join D.O.G.E. and support it.
Billy Markus commented on that, saying that he was very much amused to see “this doge meme IN THE SENATE.”
