Friday, November 17th, 2023 – The Dogecoin price is up 17% to $0.089 in a community-inspired surge, while new coin GROK hit a $200 million valuation before it was brought low by scam accusations and Meme Kombat raises $1.8 million, as meme coins strut their stuff.
A plan by the Dogecoin community to send a physical Dogecoin to the moon has caught the imagination of the cryptoverse, after an X post announced the rocket launch date.
Space company Astrobotic has been booked to blast the physical coin to the moon on December 23 in a clever marketing gimmick.
The Dogecoin community has paid for a capsule in the DHL MoonBox service provided by Astrobotic. A Vulcan Centaur heavy-lift rocket built by the United Launch Alliance will take the coin to the moon.
According to the X post, the physical coin moonshot was funded by the Dogecoin community way back in 2015.

Meme Kombat has a much better chance of getting to the moon than Dogecoin – get lowest $MK price today.
Whether the countdown to launch day will be enough to sustain a rally as Christmas approaches is anyone’s guess. However, the play on the popular “to the moon” skit that is crypto shorthand for a hoped-for parabolic price run, is doing the trick for now.
Meme coins are all about virality and the secret sauce that catches the wave is a highly subjective phenomenon.
Nevertheless, there might be surer ways to grab the limelight by offering real utility and by targeting the communities of the various competing top meme coins – that’s what Meme Kombat does with its battling and betting platform in which meme characters compete and users wager.
$MK is currently priced at $0.205, but will be rising 4.39% to $0.214 in Stage 4 of the presale, which starts in five days’ time on November 23. However, the current stage of the presale is likely to sell out before then, so potential buyers will need to move fast to get the lowest available price.
The continuing success of Dogecoin, and others like Shiba Inu, is a testament to the staying power of meme coins but Meme Kombat may have just bottled a sure-fire route to meme coin virality.
Crypto YouTube analysts are impressed with what they see from Meme Kombat, with one presale specialist positing 10x returns for early investors into the project.

Is GROK a Crock? Play it safe and get higher returns with utility-rich Meme Kombat
Elsewhere in meme coin land, new cryptocurrency GROK has been in the news.
GROK is named after the soon-to-be-launched Elon Musk AI chatbot. The chatbot is apparently undergoing rigorous testing and will only be available to premium users of X, formerly Twitter.
Grok AI’s unique selling point seems to be that it will be irreverent and sarcastic; a chatbot with a personality if you will.
At least a part of the chatbot’s language model training has been on Twitter big data, which may help to provide it with an edge for trending events and developments, although that comes with the concomitant danger of regurgitating misinformation and disinformation.
But none of that is a concern of the creators of the GROK meme coin. The coin flew out of the door at launch, powering to a market capitalization of $200 million within days. GROK reached an all-time high of %0.01662 and is today priced at $0.0086.
Crypto sleuth zachxbt stuck a spanner in the works when he published what he said was evidence purporting to show that the project was in fact a scam.
The X post of November 13 had an immediate impact, sending the price of GROK into a tailspin as it lost 70% of its value.
Zachxbt says an X account used by the alleged scammer had been updated numerous times as the developer cycled through the creation of multiple failed coins, including one called ANDY and another with the ticker GROKER20.
Not that people in this space will care but @GROKERC20 $GROK was created by a scammer.
Same exact X/Twitter account has been reused for at least one other scam.

As zachxbt observed in his X post that punctured the price run-up, there will be holders (and new buyers) that won’t care about his findings. That has indeed turned out to be the case, because far from crashing to zero the price has stabilized after its sell-off and is still trending on popular DEX trading site DEXTools, with a market cap of $64 million.
Attempts to right the ship seem to have worked for the devs behind GROK with a token burn to boost the price helping to allay fears.
