Crypto users have found it difficult to explain why Tesla billionaire, Elon Musk, chose to throw his weight behind Dogecoin, choosing it above other popular and better-performing coins. Musk has not only voiced his support for the memecoin but has also been able to influence the coin’s price via his actions.

Musk’s tweets are known to spark massive reactions among his followers. But acquiring Twitter not only triggered wild jubilations amongst his fans but also affected the prices of assets dear to his heart. Dogecoin is one such example.

Musk a récemment finalisé son achat anticipé de Twitter pour $44 milliards. L'homme de 51 ans est depuis longtemps un admirateur de l'industrie de la cryptographie, alors son arrivée sur Twitter était une victoire majeure pour les amateurs de crypto. 

Dogecoin reportedly rose by 9% following Musk’s acquisition. As of Friday morning, DOGE was aurait classée au neuvième rang des crypto-monnaies, avec une capitalisation boursière de $11,5 milliards. Le memecoin n'a pas connu une telle augmentation depuis août, ce qui montre à quel point Musk exerce une influence sur la crypto-monnaie.

Crypto enthusiasts predict that DOGE might become the next big coin in the market due to Musk’s affection for it. Traders predict that the new Twitter boss could decentralize the social media site and make DOGE an official currency, which would be used to pay for transactions on the network.

Despite his support for the memecoin, Musk has not enjoyed a smooth relationship with some of the founders of DOGE. In June, Dogecoin co-creator Jackson Palmer made some shocking claims about the SpaceX boss, slamming him for “pretending.” Jackson told an Australian site,

He’s a grifter, he sells a vision in hopes that he can one day deliver on what he’s promising, but he doesn’t know that. He’s just really good at pretending he knows.

Some DOGE investors later filed a lawsuit against Musk and his companies for his supposed support of the memecoin. Investors claimed the “defendants falsely and deceptively claim that Dogecoin is a legitimate investment when it has no value at all.”

Il reste à voir si Musk montrera plus de soutien à DOGE ou adoptera un projet plus réceptif.
