Verge (XVG)
After some digging through the node-js VERGE github repository, I saw that there were very few commits...
Then... Upon further examination, I found this:
This prompted me to do more research in terms of the correlation between Dogecoin and VERGE, during which I stumbled across an article on Crytoflix (A popular cryptocurrency news site) as they interviewed the developer of the then DogecoinDark/DOGED to talk about why he was changing the name to VERGE.
Here are the 3 things that I took form the article:
1. XVG is a re-branding of DogecoinDark/DOGED:
DogecoinDark/DOGED is re-branding to VERGE/XVG. I guess the main reasons for this, was that the community was tired of not getting the recognition that we deserve, and I suppose I was as well.
2. Their Unnamed (in the article at least...) Developer had been in the crypto and specifically Dogecoin space for a while:
Dogecoin’s developer, Jackson Palmer, left last year, in a rage quit/emo breakdown.. (although Dogecoin is where I started in crypto, and was an active miner/member of the community for quite some time before developing DogecoinDark.)
3. The coin's selling point:
There isn’t a single coin on the market today that offers the same amount of privacy and privacy resources that we do, and I think it’s time we are recognized for that.
