Dogecoin Surges as Musk Teases D.O.G.E. Plans at Trump Rally

Dogecoin's price surged after Elon Musk hinted at a potential role in Donald Trump’s campaign, suggesting he could head a "Department of Governmental Efficiency"—cleverly abbreviated as D.O.G.E. The announcement came at a high-profile Trump rally at Madison Square Garden, sparking a Dogecoin price jump to $0.16, the highest since June, making it the top performer among the top 100 cryptocurrencies.

Key Points Fueling DOGE's Rise
Musk's Influence: Musk's history of boosting Dogecoin’s value, especially on social media, has again helped drive its recent rally.
D.O.G.E. Role Proposal: Musk claimed this department could help save $2 trillion from the U.S. budget, though details remain scarce.
Political Context: Musk’s alignment with Trump could sustain Dogecoin’s momentum if it signals ongoing endorsements or utility speculation.

Dogecoin now ranks as the ninth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. While still far from its 2021 high of $0.73, this rally shows its enduring popularity and the influence of Musk’s involvement.
