Dogecoin will be listed as MegaDogecoin (MDOGE), with a conversion rate of 1 million Dogecoins. At the current exchange rate, one MDOGE is worth nearly $4,640.
Along with that, Binance has launched DOGE/USDT perpetual contract, enabling up to 50 times leverage on DOGE trades.
Dogecoin was created in 2013 by Billy Markus, an American software developer, as a fun currency. Afterward, joint cooperation with Jackson Palmer, a product manager at Adobe, turned this initiative into real crypto.
We’ve reported that 2.6 million Brits have bought cryptocurrency, with significant growth over the last year.
