Dogecoin Price After Elon Musk Reveals X Plans

The recent transfer news seems to have spooked some investors, as evidenced by the price swings in the meme coin’s price. The investors are likely staying on the sideline amid speculations over the whale moves, seeking more clarity on the crypto’s future performance.

In addition, according to a recent report, Musk envisions X as the primary platform for all financial matters, eliminating the need for traditional bank accounts and handling users’ financial requirements comprehensively. Although the report does not explicitly reference Dogecoin, the fact that Musk is a prominent supporter of DOGE tends to generate enthusiasm among DOGE holders when it comes to his participation in financial services.

Meanwhile, during writing, the Dogecoin price slipped by 2.41% to $0.06934, with its volume over the past 24 hours declining 45.71% to $426.02 million. Its market cap also dropped by 2.36% to $9.81 billion.

However, over the past seven days, the meme coin price soared over 15%, while in the last 30 days, its price surged more than 14%. According to several analysts, the recent surge in the crypto price could be due to the increasing interest of investors in the crypto market.

The crypto market has noted significant gains over the past few days, with increasing speculations over Bitcoin Spot ETF approval. In addition, the extraordinary performance of Bitcoin has also helped gains in other cryptos like Dogecoin in recent weeks.
