In a recent post, the creator of Dogecoin, known by the pseudonym Shibetoshi Nakamoto, entertained the idea of Argentina adopting DOGE as its reserve currency.
최근 게시물에서 Shibetoshi Nakamoto라는 가명으로 알려진 Dogecoin의 창시자는 아르헨티나가 DOGE를 기축 통화로 채택한다는 아이디어를 접했습니다.
The eccentric remark came amid discussions triggered by the election of Argentina's new president, Javier Milei, who has pledged radical economic changes, including the closure of the Central Bank and the adoption of the U.S. dollar as the sole currency.
The developer, while emphasizing that he was not advocating for such a move, found humor in the prospect, stating, "It would be kinda funny if Argentina took up Dogecoin as its reserve currency."

He even went on to compare the stability of Dogecoin to the Argentine peso, noting that the meme-inspired cryptocurrency had been more stable in recent years, albeit with a tongue-in-cheek acknowledgment of its notorious volatility in previous years.
The context of Nakamoto's musings aligns with the economic turmoil in Argentina and President Milei's unconventional proposals. The Argentine peso seems to be on the fringe of Milei's plans, prompting the Dogecoin creator to playfully join the speculative conversation.
Apart from this, Nakamoto dismissed attempts to predict the future of Dogecoin, especially in reference to its impressive heights in 2021 following coverage on Saturday Night Live (SNL). "I think anyone who predicts anything about cryptocurrency is a fool," asserted the developer, highlighting the unpredictable nature of the digital asset market.
이 외에도 Nakamoto는 특히 SNL(Saturday Night Live) 취재에 이어 2021년 인상적인 높이를 언급하면서 Dogecoin의 미래를 예측하려는 시도를 일축했습니다. 개발자는 “암호화폐에 대해 무엇이든 예측하는 사람은 바보라고 생각한다”고 주장하며 디지털 자산 시장의 예측 불가능성을 강조했다.
