A known crypto investor made a bold claim that Dogecoin is the king of all cryptocurrencies, stirring a debate and discussion among members of the cryptocurrency community.
Global Macro Investor founder and CEO Raoul Pal believes that the popular meme coin is capable of becoming “the hardest money ever created,” citing how Dogecoin has outperformed Bitcoin historically.
Crypto ‘Greatest Chart Of All Time’
Pal asserted the superiority of the prominent meme coin to Bitcoin, saying that its dominance could make it the “hardest” currency ever created.
The top executive’s recent statement made ripples in the crypto community by making a strong argument that Dogecoin is better than the firstborn cryptocurrency, Bitcoin.
One of the most WILD things in all of crypto is that $DOGE has proven to be harder money than $BTC and has outperformed by 550% since launch (10 years!) and looks like it might even to continue to outperform over time!🤣 What a time to be alive… pic.twitter.com/3EXQFEzPsb

Crypto Dogecoin Superiority Theory
The former hedge fund manager believes that the meme coin is “the king of all cryptocurrencies”, saying that Dogecoin trumping Bitcoin is a possibility that could happen in the future.
Pal considers the popular token as superior to Bitcoin, rooting his claim on Dogecoin outperforming Bitcoin historically. He further supported his Dogecoin superiority theory by noting that the meme coin has outdone the largest cryptocurrency in terms of market capitalization, outperforming Bitcoin’s by an astounding 500% since it was created.
CEO Foresees Dogecoin Extending Its Gains
Data shows that Pal’s assumption is accurate since the numbers do not lie. Statistics indicate that Dogecoin has outperformed the flagship cryptocurrency since its debut in 2013.
When it was launched, DOGE’s price was $0.00056 per coin but now that price has skyrocketed by 461,407%.
In comparison, during Dogecoin’s launching, the Bitcoin price was pegged at $1,210 per coin. Now, the crypto is being traded at $96,340, a 7,862% increase since then.
On The Verge Of A Breakout
Pal predicted that Dogecoin could potentially experience a breakout, a situation that would further stamp its superiority against Bitcoin.
As of writing, DOGE is being traded at $0.269 per token with a market cap of $39 billion.
Pal argued that once Dogecoin scores a breakout against Bitcoin, it will earn the title of the hardest money in the world, claiming DOGE will become the new standard and dethrone Bitcoin as the cryptocurrency top dog.
Meanwhile, some analysts take the prediction with a grain of salt. They say that Pal’s predictions might be too ambitious, considering the gap in quality between the two digital assets.

Christian Encila
They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that’s not just a metaphor, it’s a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.
Christian’s journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).
Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling – right up his alley!
So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he’s one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).
Think Christian’s all work and no play? Not a chance! When he’s not at his computer, you’ll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.
Speaking of chill, Christian’s got a crew of furry friends
