The crypto sector, that is presently valued at $2.05 trillion (roughly Rs. 1,72,11,513 crore), is rife with over 2.4 million cryptocurrencies in circulation with more entering every day. In the memecoin category, a new entrant named ‘Dogs Coin' is the latest to stir up a buzz. Interestingly, Telegram, the messaging app, is serving as the launchpad for the Dogs Coin token, allowing its global userbase of over 800 million to engage with the new memecoin.
Dogs Coin on Telegram
Dogs Coin is part of a new game on the Mini Apps marketplace on Telegram, named Dogs. The game lets Telegram users play on the app and collect Dogs Coin. The ecosystem of this game and this memecoin went live on July 9.
The token has been fashioned as a tribute to ‘Spotty', the unofficial mascot of Russian social networking firm vKontakte (VK), which was also founded by Telegram founder Pavel Durov in 2006. Durov is also the brains behind the Ton blockchain, the first link between Telegram and Web3.
On Telegram, the Dogs ecosystem has reportedly managed to amass over 3.19 million community members since its launch in July.
Every time a Telegram user invites new users to become part of the Dogs ecosystem, they get rewarded with Dogs Coin. The developers of the project reminded the Dogs community on Monday, August 12, that they will only be allowed to collect Dogs airdrop till August 14.
Just 2 days left until you receive $Dogs tokens, as announced on the #Dogs Official Telegram page.

“Launching new projects like Dogs Token highlights the ongoing innovation and growth in the cryptocurrency space,” Thakral said. He also, however, noted, that the community needed to analyse the utility of memecoins like Dogs Coin as its adoption curve played out over time.
