How did Dogecoin become so popular?

**DOGECOIN IS A PRANK!**
However, it’s had a lot longer legs than expected for a prank. Part of longevity is that the prank was based on the idea “Some people have no idea that cryptocurrencies could be completely fake, they don’t have the math knowledge to understand cryptography.” It turns out this idea is true, but because of the Dunning-Kruger effect most of the people who don’t understand enough crypto also don’t get that this is a prank on them. It turns out that there are a great many such people, and that gives the prank staying power not seen since the Tulip Craze of the 1600s.
