Any reasonable measure of transaction volume should be measured in a stable currency like dollars...and BTC is the leader, far and away here...


I agree. From the article:

> Sent last 24h:

> 583,524 BTC ($490,161,390 USD)

> 56,695,554,108 DOGE ($22,823,181 USD)


how about percentage? Bitcoin 5%, Dogecoin 110%


Percentage of what? Since there _is_ a relative value between cryptocurrencies, counting volume without taking in account value is meaningless.

I understand Dogecoin has a use (Reddit) and could be a great investment in the future, but currently, it represents only a tiny fraction of what Bitcoin, or Litecoin are.
