Dogecoin (DOGE) experienced a surge in price on U.S. Election Day, reaching a five-month high of $0.21. This increase in value was driven by Elon Musk's tweets and public appearances with former President Donald Trump. In the last 24 hours, DOGE has seen a 30% increase and a 20.6% increase in the last seven days. The meme coin also overtook Ripple (XRP) to become the seventh largest cryptocurrency with a market cap of $30 billion. Despite being below its all-time high of $0.73, the Election Day rally signifies the enduring appeal of DOGE. The rally aligns with a broader trend of optimism in the crypto market, with Bitcoin (BTC) also hitting a new all-time high of $74,504. Analysts believe that a potential Trump victory and the bullish atmosphere surrounding it could continue to drive the crypto market higher, benefiting altcoins like DOGE. Elon Musk's playful engagement with the "D.O.G.E." concept and Trump's support for a pro-crypto agenda contributed to the buzz around DOGE, leading to its recent price surge. Many see Trump's potential return to office as positive for the crypto industry, anticipating favorable regulations under his leadership. Musk's recent comments about leading a "D.O.G.E." agency further fueled speculation and reinforced the belief that he still supports Dogecoin. DOGE, originally created as a parody of Bitcoin in 2013, has gained significant popularity through internet culture and the influence of figures like Musk.
