In a recent X Space event, Elon Musk, the renowned billionaire and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, reaffirmed his unwavering support for Dogecoin.
Musk, known for his influential presence in the tech industry, disclosed that he personally holds Dogecoin, while his space exploration company, SpaceX, remains invested in Bitcoin.
Elon Musk Is Bullish on Dogecoin
The recent revelation aligns with Elon Musk’s history of boosting Dogecoin’s profile. In 2021, his endorsements propelled the meme coin to unprecedented heights. Despite the bear market, Musk’s affinity for Dogecoin remains steadfast, demonstrating his belief in the cryptocurrency’s potential.
While Tesla, another Musk-led venture, also includes Bitcoin in its assets, Musk’s personal choice leans towards Dogecoin.
“I still own a bunch of Dogecoin, and SpaceX owns a bunch of Bitcoin,” Musk explained.
Interestingly, the impact of Musk’s statements on Dogecoin’s value seems to be diminishing. Unlike the dramatic surges following his 2021 tweets, recent revelations have only slightly nudged DOGE’s price.
The 7.7% price increase Dogecoin has seen this week aligns with a general uptrend in the crypto market, spurred by the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs.
