Shibetoshi Nakamoto, Dogecoin creator, sent a fuming waring to DOGE influencer and famous YouTuber Matt Wallace. Shibetoshi cautioned that Dogecoin Foundation is looking into taking legal action against him the Youtuber over trademark violation.
Why Shibetoshi is so fired up?

Knock it off with this âpositivityâ thing. There is nothing positive about being a criminal, the thing you are doing, he said
To avoid any trouble ahead, the DOGE creator advised him to not release the trademark violation token and asked him to stop talking about the coin. He further added that Dogecoin people wouldnât care he you stopped shilling DOGE.
Raise funds through DOGE
Another DOGE enthusiast, Doge Whisperer, raised a serious question targeting Matt. He asked that if you are building a team to educate retailers for accepting Doge then why are you creating a new token instead of raising capital in Doge?
