Who let the DOGE out?

Due to this recent rally, several DOGE holders have started to get profitable as showcased by the increasing Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio.
He Musk be stopped
One of the reasons for the surge in interest in DOGE could be attributed to Elon Musk’s recent behavior with regard to X.com, formerly known as Twitter. The rebranding and renaming of the website led many speculators to believe that DOGE may serve a larger purpose for the website in the future.
Elon Musk did little to curb the speculation around DOGE and X. Instead, he further implied that the memecoin will have a pivotal role in the functioning of the website.
This was showcased by Musk’s recent location on his profile, which features both the letters, “X” and “D”. The latter could be presumed to be stand symbolizing DOGE. Furthermore, Elon’s behavior can lead to more market speculation and may impact DOGE’s price in the future.
