Elon Musk Triggers More Dogecoin User Activity But Will People Stick Around?

Dogecoin (DOGE), the original meme coin, has experienced an impressive 30% increase in value since the start of the month. Currently trading above $0.09, this surge can be partially attributed to Elon Musk’s tweet about his starship launch attempt. However, the initial boost began when Twitter changed its old blue bird logo to a Dogecoin image on its homepage earlier this month. This move ignited a minor price rally and a significant increase in network activity for the cryptocurrency.

Dogecoin Active Address Count and Market Share Growth

Data from Bitinfocharts reveals that the active address count on Dogecoin’s network has reached levels not seen since August 2022, exceeding 100k this month. 

Throughout the year, the network has consistently attracted over 47,000 daily users. Additionally, the address count has maintained above 55,000 during the past month. 

This trend suggests a growing market share and interest in the blockchain network, resulting in a spike in demand for the associated cryptocurrency. Consequently, transaction fees have soared to new heights this week.

Alongside a broader recovery in the cryptocurrency market, Dogecoin has nearly doubled its value since hitting a low of $0.049 in June 2022. In addition, following Musk’s controversial acquisition of Twitter, many speculated that DOGE would become the social media platform’s official payment token.

DOGE’s Mascot Becomes Twitter’s Temporary Logo and Its Impact

Although this has not yet occurred, the Twitter CEO briefly replaced the platform’s iconic bluebird logo with DOGE’s official mascot earlier in the month. This move prompted a nearly 40% rally in Dogecoin’s value. However, the original logo was reinstated quickly as many people took offense to the change. It was a silly decision that may hinder Twitter’s “professional appeal” in the long run.

More recently, Musk announced a reward of 1 million DOGE to anyone who can confirm the existence of an emerald mine that several reports claim is owned by his family. This announcement also contributed to the meme coin’s significant increase in value.

The recent surge in Dogecoin’s value and network activity highlights the powerful influence of Elon Musk on the cryptocurrency market. As a high-profile entrepreneur and Twitter CEO, his actions and statements continue to shape the trajectory of this meme coin. 

As Dogecoin continues to gain momentum, investors and enthusiasts alike will be closely watching for any further developments related to Musk’s involvement with the cryptocurrency. They shouldn’t expect any news from the Dogecoin developer team, as there do not seem to be any significant future plans.
