DOGE was trading at $0.1404, this morning, prior to the viral X post . The coin, however, briefly surged to $0.1457, and is now trading at $0.1439. The current market price is still a 4.14% spike compared to the past day’s price.

The ‘DOGE’ post is particularly significant, considering Musk’s rising political dominance and the crypto community’s growing expectations of flexible regulation from the next US President. 

Apart from this, DOGE has 4.42 % surge in its market cap which stands strong at $21.13B

 In the last 24 hours. The memecoin community termains 83% bullish on DOGE, and Musk’s tweet further bolsters it.

Overall, Elon Musk’s support for Donald Trump and his playful endorsement of Dogecoin, leaves one wondering about the relationship between cryptocurrency and political movements. The current US election has seen the most crypto gimmicks than ever, whether it is Donald Trump buying burgers with Bitcoin, or Ripple’s Co-founder, Chris Larsen donating $10 Million XRP to VP and Presidential candidate Kamala Harris, or Republican senator John Deaton’s open involvement as an amicus counsel for Ripple (XRP) holders in U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC) vs Ripple case.
