Jake Paul mentioned that Dogecoin is also a similar project. He said that Dogecoin might have just as much potential as Bitcoin did.

Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency which was launched in December 2013. In the last few months, Dogecoin has been receiving a lot of attention on social media. One of the reasons for the amplification of this hype is the fact that Tesla bought $1.5 Billion in Dogecoin.

Dogecoin has experienced a massive surge in its value. From holding the value of 1 cent earlier, Dogecoin has now come to a value of 8 cents.

By the looks of it, Jake Paul seems ready to jump into the Dogecoin bandwagon. The comparison he made between Bitcoin and Dogecoin sure does make it look like Jake Paul is planning to invest further in Dogecoin. However, many people in the comments section did not agree with Jake Paul's take.

People react to Jake Paul's comparison of Bitcoin and Dogecoin

Bitcoin thrives over Dogecoin in terms of value. This is because the availability of Bitcoins is limited. In comparison to more than 100 billion Dogecoins, there are only 18 million Bitcoins.

Just so we are clear @jakepaul there are 128 BILLION Dodge coins...There are only 18 MILLION Bitcoin. $DOGE will never hit Bitcoin prices it's mathematically impossible. You can definitely make money though and that's all that matters. But don't be unrealistic educate yourself.
