Mavericks’ owner Mark Cuban shakes up Crypto-currency twitter
Mavs’ owner Mark Cuban certainly does not shy away from speaking his heart out. Be it him speaking out on controversial decisions by the league or else, Cuban is always ready to have a discussion with the general public.
Recently the 63-year-old shook up the crypto-currency world in twitter. Speaking about the DOGE coin, Cuban dismissed that the currency was not a meme coin, rather it has become a legitimate way for payment.
The point about DOGE that people miss is that DOGE’s imperfections and simplicity are it’s greatest strengths. You can only use it to do 2 things: Spend It or HODL It. Both are easy to understand. And it’s cheap to buy. Which makes it a community anyone can join and enjoy.

The 7’3″ center who resorted to a perimeter based game last season struggled mightily. His passiveness certainly cost Doncic and Co. If Porzingis continues to disappoint, his time with the Mavs might be somewhat over. Will Cuban and the Mavs pull off a surprise move and finally let go off the Latvian?
