Is dogecoin a bubble?
Some analysts view dogecoin’s rise as a bubble due to the digital currency’s lack of real-world utility use. However, in recent months after Musk announced that his rocket company SpaceX would be using the crypto for one of its missions to the moon, the status has been changing. Furthermore, the Dallas Mavericks basketball team, medical supplier CovCare, has adopted dogecoin as a payment alternative. Despite the surge in dogecoin’s value, there have been concerns the celebrity backers might opt out, leading the price of the crypto to tumble. According to Galaxy Digital CEO and billionaire Mike Novogratz, dogecoin’s rally is s a retail phenomenon driven by the supply of more money into the economy. Following the rally, dogecoin’s price has corrected alongside the general market sentiments. By press time, the coin was trading at $0.38.
