62% of Dogecoin hodlers in profit amid hopes of Twitter integration

cointelegraph.com:

Tesla CEO and billionaire Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter has tipped 62% of Dogecoin (DOGE) investors into profit, amid speculation that Musk’s Twitter-buy will be positive for the meme token.

DOGE’s price rallied on Oct. 26 when billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk changed his Twitter bio to “Chief of Twit” — the same day he visited Twitter’s San Francisco-based headquarters before officially closing the deal as the new owner on Oct. 28.

In the past seven days, DOGE’s price has surged 98.5% to $0.119 at the time of writing, according to CoinGecko.

This means that as much as 62% of DOGE holders are “Making Money at Current Price” according to data from blockchain intelligence platform IntoTheBlock — which even beats out Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) hodlers at 54% and 57% respectively.

The events have also triggered DOGE’s market cap to surpass smart contract platforms Cardano and Solana into becoming the 8th largest cryptocurrency in the world with a $16.3 billion market cap, according to CoinGecko.

The link between Musk’s Twitter purchase and DOGE’s massive price surge should come as no surprise as many Dogecoin investors have high hopes for Musk — nicknamed “The Dogefather” — to integrate Dogecoin onto Twitter in some shape or form.

Dogecoin fanatic and crypto blogger Matt Wallace told his 678,400 followers on Oct. 28 that he believes a Dogecoin-integrated Twitter would showcase “what #Dogecoin is capable of.”:

Thanks to Elon Musk, Twitter will soon showcase to the entire world what #Dogecoin is capable of!

While Dogecoin fan page “Doge Whisperer” speculated that a Dogecoin-based tip system could be implemented for popular tweets:

Can’t wait for Twitter to add #dogecoin as an option for tippingWhat do you think
