Doge became one of the most iconic memes in Internet history through Tumblr and early meme communities. In November 2013, Jackson Palmer first introduced the name “Dogecoin” on Tumblr with the phrase “Investing in Dogecoin, pretty sure it’s the next big thing,” which was then cross-posted to Twitter (X). Billy Markus later transformed the joke into a real cryptocurrency. Tumblr’s culture also created iconic symbols like the Tumbeast, created by artist Matthew Inman, showing the platform’s unique role in Internet creativity. A major meme project connected to Tumblr would be a fitting tribute to the community that helped shape Doge’s rise.
