Axe reveals limited run of Dogecoin-themed body spray

Axe is set to drop a limited run of a free Dogecoin-themed body spray dubbed “Dogecan,” which is described as exhibiting a “dank musk.”

Popular male grooming product manufacturer, Axe. is set to launch a limited run of Dogecoin (DOGE)-themed body spray dubbed “Dogecan.”

Axe’s Dogecans will be given out for free, with consumers encouraged to register on the firm’s website for a chance to receive a can. However, the marketing campaign appears to be unavailable to DOGE fanatics outside of the U.S.

The company has already sent out early samples to popular Dogecoin personalities, including Dogecoin co-founder Billy Markus, popular Twitter account Dogecoin Rise, and musician and DOGE proponent Lil Mook.

The marketing campaign was first teased back in April around Doge Day, with Axe asserting that it would produce a “crypto scented” body spray should DOGE surpass $1.

Despite DOGE never hitting the $1 mark, the firm has gone ahead with producing the body spray, describing the product as having a “dank musk.” The deodorant’s packing includes a card that reads:

“We’re going to the moon, in this can you’ll find the crypto-confidence you need to get there.”

Since DOGE’s all time high of $0.73 on May 8, the price of Elon Musk’s purported favorite cryptocurrency has declined by 76.1% to sit at $0.17 today, according to data from CoinGecko.

Despite DOGE’s downward trend toward the end of the second quarter, Cointelegraph recently reported that daily DOGE volume increased nearly 13 times during Q2 to tag roughly almost $1 billion on average.

Axe is not the mainstream firm to have promoted the cult-favorite memecoin, joining the likes of Slim Jims, Snickers, and Milkyway — who all openly celebrated Doge Day on April 20.

The Congolese Mountain of Gold: Surprise Discovery in Africa Shows Metal’s Scarcity Is Hard to Prove

A myriad of gold bugs like to compliment the yellow precious metal for its ostensible scarcity, as estimates say only 2,500 to 3,000 tons of new gold is produced annually. While new gold discoveries have seemingly slowed, investigative studies also show that in some areas, gold is being smuggled into the economy by the ton, and often never accounted for as far as per annum issuance estimates. Recently, reports show a whole mountain of gold was discovered in the Congo, as the Democratic Republic of the Congo is well known for being a region that sees tons of smuggled gold filtered into the global financial system unreported. Surprise Gold Deposits Continue to Crack the Precious Metal’s Scarcity Proposition It has always been said that the precious metal gold (Au) is scarce, and some reports even say that gold mining on earth will end by the year 2050 . Additionally, estimates also show that there’s roughly 2,500 to 3,000 tons of new gold that is accounted for and enters into the fin...
