Dogecoin (DOGE) Price Soars

The crypto market continues to be under pressure ahead of the U.S. CPI data and the high rising U.S. dollar index (DXY). Bitcoin and Ethereum price continues to move in a sideways trend.

Meanwhile, Dogecoin’s (DOGE) price soars over 3% in a day amid Elon Musk’s perfume promotion. The trading volume is flat and indicates a lack of interest from traders. The 24-hour low and high are $0.059 and $0.060, respectively.

Moreover, Elon Musk committed DOGE for Twitter after he agreed to proceed with the $44 billion buyout of Twitter at $54.20 per share. However, the drama surrounding Apollo Global Management and Sixth Street Partners backing out of financing the deal raised some concerns. However, he said the firms never participated in financing the deal.
