Doge Store: Our Values

We created the DOGE store because we love Dogecoin and the shared values of the community. We think it's the best community on the internet because of these values and this is our contribution. We see a lot of potential to integrate cool community features and open source the creative and compensation if it scales. We want this to be fun and not political. For now it's just a fun side project with these values:

1. Fun and Humor: The community's lighthearted approach is evident in its origins as a meme coin, with the Shiba Inu mascot and phrases like "such wow" becoming cultural icons. This value aligns with the user's appreciation for fun, making Dogecoin a joyful entry into crypto 

2. Open-Source Development: As an open-source cryptocurrency, Dogecoin's code is freely available for anyone to contribute to or build upon, fostering transparency and collaboration. This aligns with the user's interest in open source, as noted on the official site

3. Dog-Centric Identity: The Shiba Inu mascot is not just a logo but a unifying symbol, reflecting the community's quirky, dog-loving identity. This value directly addresses the user's mention of "dogs," as seen in community discussions and branding 

4. Global Inclusivity: With a decentralized, online presence, the community welcomes members from all corners of the world, fostering diversity. This global mindset aligns with the user's preference for global reach, as highlighted in its trading on international exchanges 

5. Long-Term Sustainability: The community focuses on building a sustainable future for Dogecoin, aiming for long-term growth and stability rather than quick profits. This reflects the user's "long-term oriented" preference, as seen in its sustained presence since 2013 

6. Collaboration Over Competition: The manifesto values "collaboration and trust over competition and exclusivity," evident in community-driven development and charity efforts. This aligns with the user's emphasis on collaboration, as noted in the foundation's principles 

7. Kindness and Generosity: The "Do Only Good Everyday" (DOGE) ethos drives acts like funding the Jamaican Bobsled Team for the 2014 Winter Olympics and supporting NASCAR drivers, reflecting a commitment to charity 

8. Accessibility for All: Dogecoin keeps things simple and approachable, inviting both newcomers and veterans, as seen in its use as a tipping currency on Reddit and X. This value ensures crypto is accessible, aligning with the community's welcoming nature 

9. Creative Freedom: Memes, art, and absurd ideas flourish, with the community celebrating creativity through platforms like Reddit and X posts. This value reflects the user's interest in fun and is evident in the community's vibrant cultural expressions 

10. Resilience and Loyalty: Through market crashes and skepticism, the community remains dedicated, proving their commitment. This value is seen in its ability to sustain over a decade, aligning with long-term orientation and community loyalty
