Coinbase, a Cryptocurrency exchange adds Doginme (DOGINME) to Asset Roadmap, sparking a triple-digit price rally in the memecoin. DOGINME as a memecoin built on Base, owes its origins to a witty remark by Farcaster founder Dan Romero.
Notably, when asked if he owns a dog, Romero jokingly replied, “No, but I got that dog in me.” This humorous exchange sparked the creation of DOGINME, a token that has since taken on a life of its own.
Doginme (DOGINME) Price Surges
On Friday, March 14, Coinbase announced the addition of DOGINME to its roadmap, triggering a swift market response. The meme coin’s price skyrocketed from $0.000343 to $0.000923, according to CoinGecko data. After minor fluctuations, it reached an intraday high of $0.001064, marking a 162% increase.
At the time of writing, DOGINME traded at $0.000773, still 73% higher than its value 24 hours prior. The token’s weekly surge of 297% outperformed the broader crypto market and other meme coins, which lost around 13% of their value.
DOGINME’s rapid rise made it the top gainer among Base meme coins, with a market cap exceeding $53 million and currently it ranks 533 on CoinGecko. However, not everyone welcomed the news. Some crypto community members expressed frustration on X, questioning Coinbase’s decision.
Coinbase Adds Memecoin to Roadmap
Critics also argued that DOGINME’s listing overlooked more established tokens, such as DOG, valued at $180 million. A popular Bitcoin NFT advocate raised a concern about how a random $25 million dog coin with no community got a spot while others of higher value were overlooked. Others deemed DOGINME “garbage” and suggested those responsible for listings should be arrested.
Despite the backlash, DOGINME’s addition to Coinbase’s roadmap has significantly boosted its value and visibility. Coinbase’s decision to add DOGINME to its roadmap follows the exchange’s recent inclusion of another Base meme coin, Tokenbot (CLANKER). The exchange has warned that these tokens may carry additional risks, including price volatility and potential canceled orders due to limited availability.
The announcement has sparked action from other exchanges, with BitMart quickly relisting DOGINME. This move comes shortly after Coinbase announced plans to delist certain Solana (SOL) and Ethereum (ETH) memecoins.
As part of its ongoing reviews, Coinbase will suspend trading for select tokens, including FLOKI (FLOKI), Turbo (TURBO), and Gigachad (GIGA), in New York only on April 14, 2025.
