This wasn’t the first time Musk had spiked the value of the meme-inspired digital currency. Earlier in July 2020, he posted a dogecoin meme on his Twitter, which also skyrocketed the value of the digital currency. The forums like r/CryptoCurrency and r/SatoshiStreetBets, who pushed the users to take DogeCoin to the moon, are using Musk’s reference as an element to encourage users to hold onto DogeCoin.
