Doge Creator Atsuko Sato Drops Bombshell: First-Ever Doge Memorial Party Sparks Global Pilgrimage Rumors
Internet culture meets crypto fandom as the original Doge meme creator announces a historic tribute event. Will Shiba Inu enthusiasts now treat Kabosu’s hometown like Wall Street bros pilgrimage to Berkshire Hathaway’s shareholder meeting?
The party details remain scarce—but expect maximalist energy, ironic merch drops, and at least one hedge fund manager awkwardly trying to explain ’community vibes’ to limited partners.

Writing on her blog earlier today, Sato reflected deeply on the bittersweet emotions of this season: the beauty of spring, the laughter of family, and the approaching first anniversary of Kabosu’s passing. And with that reflection comes celebration.

On May 24, 2025, Sato and her friends will host a one-year memorial party for Kabosu at Sakura Gnôme, a charming, dog-friendly park NEAR Sakura Furusato Square in Chiba Prefecture. The event will honor Kabosu’s memory and offer a warm, welcoming space to remember all beloved pets who crossed the rainbow bridge this past year.
“It’s going to be such a beautiful day,” Sato wrote. “Under the wide sky, with the trees whispering in the wind, we will laugh and remember Kabosu and all our precious friends. Everyone is welcome — with dogs or without.”
The gathering is shaping up to be more than just a memorial — it will be a joyful tribute, blending remembrance with celebration, in true Doge spirit: wholesome, humorous, and full of heart.
Fans, Dogecoin holders, and meme culture enthusiasts worldwide are already buzzing about the announcement, with many suggesting the event could become an annual pilgrimage for Doge lovers worldwide.

DOGE Price Analysis: Will DOGE Memorial Event Spark a May DOGE Price Rally?
As Atsuko Sato announces the news, Dogecoin is trading at a market price of $0.18 (representing a 24-hour change of -0.58%).
This comes as DOGE, alongside the broader meme market, forms a high-time frame double-bottomed support and shifts towards upside resistance levels.
All eyes are now on the $0.20 price level, which forms the closest resistance level and has suppressed Doge price since March.

A break above this resistance level would see DOGE price skyrocket to $0.26 – a level marked by the 200DMA (representing around a 45% gain from here).
Indeed, such a move is not unlikely, with Bitcoin price now targeting a return above $100K, and DOGE ETFs processes underway.
One thing we know for sure. Doge is eternal. Much wow. Very memories.
Stay tuned for more updates on this historic Doge celebration!
