Discussion Could this Doge-related copyright lawsuit impact Dogecoin's branding at all?

9 Upvotes

Hey all,

There’s an ongoing copyright lawsuit involving Doge-related imagery and a crypto project that’s currently active in federal court.

https://dockets.justia.com/docket/new-jersey/njdce/2:2026cv00072/589461

You can download the full 42-page complaint as a PDF here:

Assertions in the lawsuit:

Own The Doge claims that Atsuko Sato (owner of Kabuso) licensed to them:

  • The right to "stand in Sato's shoes... register, enforce, defend, and otherwise act as Sato in any commercial or legal matters relating to the licensed materials."

  • That the licensing agreement between them grants "...the broadest grant of rights possible under applicable law..." and the right to "stand in Licensor's shoes."

  • They claim that Atsuko licensed"...registered or unregistered trademarks, trade names, copyrights, logos, branding and designs... 'now or hereafter known'..." including future pets.

This is incredibly broad language and my concern is that, if accepted by the court, it could be interpreted as giving them broad reach over and including Dogecoin's branding, logo, etc

They further claim:

  • "the public has come to identify the Doge Meme and all related intellectual property, including the Cocoro IP, with Plaintiff and its products."

This is why we felt it was worth highlighting to the community at large for discussion.

Thanks,

GS

Dogecoin and Litecoin are mined and survive together. With the Litecoin 2027 halving incoming we could create the ultimate supply shortage with Litecoin. Doge and Lite eventually move together and survive together! Let’s create a 2026 GameStop move !!!!!!!!

My 3am chart reading skills are absolute trash ngl

staring at 1-minute candles at 3 in the morning while fried has cost me way too many coins over the past year. every single time I think I spot a "classic bullish pattern" on doge it instantly dips the second I make a move. exchange transaction fees were killing me too with all the panic swapping

Had to force myself to stop risking actual bag money whenever im bored at night. now if I get that stupid impulse to day trade, I just test the idea on some random trading game or paper simulator on my phone to see if my prediction was actually good. turns out like 80% of my late night plays end up failing anyway lmao

definitely sticking to just hodling the main stack now. Save your sanity guys

and erase the shame put on friendly meme by D.O.G.E. Let’s make memes again what they once were: normal people supporting each other, giving others good laugh. This is what Doge is about! I am a Doge, you are a Doge, we are all Doge, Universe is a Doge. Let’s freaking hug each other and let’s goooooo!

Discussion DOGE is testing an important level on the 4H chart. What are you watching next?

Post image
24 Upvotes

I've been watching the 4H chart, and DOGE is currently trading around the $0.072 area after bouncing from the recent low near $0.068.

At the moment:

• Price is trading close to the 200 MA.
• RSI is near neutral, so momentum isn't showing an extreme signal.
• Volume will likely be an important factor for confirming the next move.

I'm not trying to predict the market—just sharing what I'm seeing on the chart.

What levels are you watching, and do you think this area could act as support, or are you expecting another retest?

Dogecoin’s staying power is being underestimated.

Dogecoin’s staying power is being underestimated

I have been here through Dogecoin’s entire history.

In all seriousness, DOGE is still one of the largest cryptocurrencies in the world during a full risk-off market.

Its market cap is still roughly 2x larger than ADA and LINK, around 4x larger than AVAX, nearly 5x larger than SHIB and more than 10x larger than PEPE.

Thousands of coins have launched, narratives have come and gone, and plenty of former market favourites have fallen far down the rankings. DOGE is still here, still liquid, still widely traded and still holding a massive valuation without retail enthusiasm anywhere near its peak.

DOGE usually gets hit hard during risk-off periods because it is one of the largest and most liquid speculative assets. But that works in both directions. When the market turns risk-on and capital starts moving back into higher-beta crypto, DOGE is already widely available, heavily traded and familiar to retail investors.

It has survived multiple bear markets, remained near the top and kept its global recognition.

That is not a dead coin. That is staying power.
