Why did Dogecoin’s supply jump so fast from 152B to 167B? Only 5B DOGE are mined per year, so the price should be 17¢, not 15¢. Total scam. https://www.reddit.com/gallery/1q50dvo Posted by Aggressive_Ad3714

DontLook_Weirdo on January 5, 2026 11:14 pm I did a bit of research just now and it comes down to two likely possible situations: 1. Old wallets have woken up, and their movement has produced the real number 2. Exchanges are reporting more accurately. Either way, instead of the usual 5b increase, we’re getting 16b “new” dogecoins entering the supply. That’s…………hilarious.
