The Dogecoin march
Analysis from Cases.gg reveals that the worldwide Google searches for Dogecoin, Elon Musk's favourite cryptocurrency, reached 667,410 on Tuesday, a 777 per cent increase compared to the daily average four weeks prior. This is fueled by Musk's appointment as head of the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under the Trump administration.
"Beyond Bitcoin, we're also witnessing a surge in interest towards other tokens," adds Gupta. Dogecoin saw a rise of 99 per cent over seven days and presently trades at USD 0.3899.
