How $DOG hijacked the X algorithm by building a decentralized social news engine that turns holders into reporters 🧵
X’s Radar analytics tool shows us that $DOG is the #1 most mentioned memecoin ticker on X in the past month, racking up 960.5K posts while other top memecoins like $SPX, $SHIB, and $BONK only had 436.6K, 415.5K, and 162.6K posts respectively during the same period
What if I told you there was a secret formula that the $DOG Army was using to achieve these results despite having only a fraction of the market cap of these other memecoins?
Enter the "Decentralized Social News Engine", an attention multiplier that the $DOG Army has been using for over a year to consistently dominate the X timeline
The way it works is simple
In a traditional memecoin marketing strategy, the holders make posts on X and organically, the memecoin will start to go viral
But this only results in fleeting short-term attention
The Decentralized Social News Engine is a solution for long-term, sustainable attention, which is critical for the survival of any memecoin
Memecoins are a proxy for attention
The more attention, the more valuable the memecoin
If a memecoin gets lots of attention all of a sudden the price will go up
But then, a month later, if nobody is talking about it anymore, the price goes right back down
$DOG’s solution to this is to turn holders into reporters
24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, the $DOG Army is posting "breaking $DOG news" on X
On a "slow day" this might be something as simple as the $DOG price jumping 5% quickly
On a day when a CEX lists $DOG, it quickly becomes a "news story" that $DOG reporters pick up on and cover
At all times of the day, there are dozens of $DOG reporters scouring the internet for any possible pieces of bullish news to cover
This works because $DOG reporters are getting paid in engagement
I have seen accounts with 10 followers be the first one to break a huge piece of $DOG news and instantly get 100s of reposts and new followers
And the best part is that nobody needs to ask for permission to be a $DOG reporter
$DOG is fully decentralized and CC0, so anyone who is trying to build their account can become a $DOG reporter and rapidly grow their following
Being a $DOG reporter is arguably the fastest and most reliable way to go from 0 to 1,000 followers on X
In the early days of $DOG, I helped to get the Decentralized Social News Engine started by sitting at my computer all day, looking for news of any kind about $DOG that I could post
Pretty soon, there were hundreds of other accounts doing the same thing
I’ve since shifted my strategy on X from reporting on $DOG to writing more long-form pieces like this one and am focused on ensuring that the Free & Fair ethos is intact and that the community is in alignment
I can do that because there are now $DOG reporters like @cryptolution101 who are absolute machines that have become 10x the $DOG reporter that I ever was
The $DOG Army will continue to ramp up its use of this strategy, and once $DOG has flipped all other memecoins, I hope that people will look back at this post and study the Decentralized Social News Engine that was instrumental in getting $DOG to the moon
