The Shiba Inu’s iconic meme went viral in the early 2010s and it led to the creation of Dogecoin (DOGE) in 2013. 
<a href="https://crypto.ro/en/sponsored/why-shiba-inu-and-dogecoin-whales-are-aping-into-dtx-exchange-new-presale-for-100x-growth/">DOGE</a> became the largest memecoin by market capitalization and inspired other important dog-themed memecoins such as Shiba Inu and Floki. 
The open-source digital currency was reportedly created by Billy Markus from Portland, Oregon, and Jackson Palmer from Sydney, Australia, and was forked from Litecoin in December 2013. 
Dogecoin’s creators saw the token as a fun, light-hearted cryptocurrency that would have greater appeal beyond the core Bitcoin audience, since it was based on a dog meme.
