Though you may not know her name, Kabosu is an internet icon.
Tuesday was Kabosu’s birthday – she’s 16 years young.
Kabosu hasher own Instagram account– obviously – where her owner posted in celebration of her big day.
The photo has over 55,000 likes, because that’s how legends live.
Her owner blogged about Kabosu, including several photos of the Shiba Inu.
The doge meme was born.
Three years after that fateful photo was taken,two software engineers decided to have a lark.
Dogecoin unexpectedly took off, eventually becoming a meme unto itself.
In fact, it spawned a whole genre of cryptocurrencies called “meme coins.”
With some help from Elon Musk, Dogecoin currently has a market cap of $35 billion.
Happy birthday, Kabosu.
You’ve changed the world.
