What is the relationship between Elon Musk and Doge?

in Project HOPE4 years ago

Are we seeing a real live pump and dump or what exactly is going on?

Doge coin as mentioned by Binance CEO Chanpeng Zhao in this Tweet looks abandoned.

The shocking stats in the tweets are

  • 1 address holds 27% of all DOGE.

  • Top 20 addresses holds more than 50%+ of all DOGE

  • Latest release was back in November 2019 with no significant improvement

The above shows Doge is abandoned and a coin for whales to play with.

Why Elon Musk is interested in Doge is a question I find hard to answer.

There are two ways to this

Elon Musk holds or longed some Doge before shilling on Twitter. His latest tweet saw the dumping Doge soar around 50%. This is bad news for shorts who believe the Doge season is over. This might be a game for the outspoken billionaire.

  • Long a good amount of Doge on different accounts

  • Come to twitter and tweet a meme.

  • Doge pumps and he dumps. Then repeat.

The second way can be Elon Musk testing his influence. This same Musk added Bitcoin to his bio and the digital cryptocurrency surged in price. He removed it afterwards.

It can just be a test of influence or a random sampling test. He has simply displayed that people are willing to pour millions of dollars into whatever project he bring out. Afterall, he is an entrepreneur looking for ways to make profit. He might be testing his shilling power. He tested it on Tesla and successfully dumped Tesla stocks. He tested it on Signal too. Crypto might be the next in his test.

Which do you think is the best plausible explanation?

If i understand right, doge doesn't have an upper limit, more is being with each calculation, which roughly takes 1 minute.

The total doge in circulation is around 128,233,897,816

Kindly check the address that currently owns more than 28% of all Doge

There are rumors, that the biggest doge wallet with hundreds of millions in USD of Doge, belongs to Elon. But there are no actual evidence of this.

I personally think Elon did it just for fun.
