The DOGE Factors

  • DOGE was not among the most mentioned coins on Twitter at press time, according to Cointrendz data.
  • The 24-hour trading volume for DOGE increased 11% to $739 million at press time, according to CoinMarketCap.
  • Coinglass data indicated over $928,000 worth of DOGE was liquidated over 24 hours as the price of the meme coin saw volatility.

Crypto Still Riding Equity Coattails Cryptocurrency markets saw volatility on Wednesday. If S&P500 continues to push higher this week, it is likely that apex coin would follow, according to cryptocurrency trader Justin Bennett

Elon Musk, Dogecoin Co-Creator Squabble Doge co-creator Jackson Palmer called Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) CEO Elon Musk a “grifter” in an interview with Australian media. Palmer also questioned Musk’s seriousness in buying Twitter Inc (NASDAQ: NYSE:TWTR). In response, Musk called Palmer a tool and said his children wrote better code than the DOGE co-creator when they were 12.

Bitcoin Devs Wrote DOGE Code DOGE’s other co-creator Billy Markus, in humor, tweeted Tuesday that Bitcoin developers wrote most of Dogecoin’s code.

Musk acknowledged Markus’ humility and said his sense of humor and irreverence is a “big part” of why people love the meme coin.

Markus said the people who came after Palmer did “exponentially more” work on the code base alongside him. Markus said he had only written 20 lines of code and copied the rest.
