Dogecoin Shed 91% Of Its Value Since 2021 High – A Musk Tweet To Pump DOGE?

The Dogecoin army has been closely monitoring the meme coin’s depreciating value week by week. DOGE has lost an enormous amount of value from its all-time high on May 8, 2017, despite the fact that it remains one of the top 12 cryptocurrencies. Monday’s Coingecko statistics reveals that DOGE is trading at $0.054143, a decrease of 34% over the previous week. More than a year ago on this date, DOGE was trading at $0.739 per unit. Today, the 24-hour price range for this cryptocurrency asset is between $0.064 and $0.07 per coin. Dogecoin is widely regarded as the first “meme coin,” having been founded as a joke by Jackson Palmer and Billy Marcus in 2013 to poke fun at the abundance of altcoins flooding the market.

Throughout 2020 and the first few months of last year, Musk’s humorous tweets regarding Dogecoin consistently caused its price to increase. During this period, the coin attracted a group of ardent supporters known as the “Dogecoin Army,” whose declared objective was to bring the coin’s price above $1 or, as Musk touted it, “over the moon.” Many believed Musk’s debut on SNL would be effective. Regrettably, it did not. Can A Musk Tweet Give DOGE A Shot In The Arm This Time? Even though DOGE is down 91 percent from its all-time high, it is still up an amazing 75,260 percent since the asset’s all-time low on May 6, 2015. At that time, one DOGE was worth $0.00000869 cents. Recent market performance for the coin has not been encouraging, as the DOGE price has decreased by 79.4 percent over the past year.
