Especially after Musk announced a new financial structure for the social media site, there are more rumors about Dogecoin possibly taking on a new role in the Twitter ecosystem.
DOGE Price Showed a Rapid Rise
As expected, after the logo change and location update, the price of Dogecoin entered a strong bull run. At the time of writing, it is trading at $0.0740, with a 4.36% increase in one day. Dogecoin maintains its position as the largest meme coin by market capitalization and occasionally exhibits signs of renewed interest.
The meme-based cryptocurrency became the eighth largest cryptocurrency after adding more than $1 billion to its market value this week. This rapid increase in market value raised Dogecoin’s market value to over $10 billion in just one week, with an increase of over 6%.
While speaking at the Wall Street Journal CEO Council Summit, Musk explained why this joke currency is his favorite cryptocurrency. Musk said his interest in Dogecoin is more related to its humorous side rather than its potential in the cryptocurrency market.
