Dogecoin jumped 110% Transactions After Elon Musk Joins Twitter Board
Dogecoin (DOGE) continues to rise four weeks after bottoming near $0.10, indicating that additional gains are on the way in Q2/2022.Yesterday, transactions of at least $100,000 into Dogecoin jumped 110%, according to crypto analytics website IntoTheBlock.
As part of the deal to join the board, Musk has agreed to not bring his stake any higher than 14.9% from the current 9.2%. Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal and Musk exchanged tweets Tuesday morning expressing their excitement and interest in working together.
Agrawal: “Through conversations with Elon in recent weeks, it became clear to us that he would bring great value to the board.”
Musk: “Looking forward to working with Parag and Twitter board to make significant improvements to Twitter in coming months!”
It’s the second spike in two days for dogecoin on Musk/Twitter-related news. While Monday’s move quickly reversed, DOGE currently has been rising, now topping $0.16 for the first time in two months.
Over the past few months Musk, the CEO of Tesla (TSLA) has promoted dogecoin, even allowing for DOGE to be accepted for payment at Tesla’s supercharging stations and its online merchandise store. Now the largest individual owner of Twitter shares and a board member, Musk could push for DOGE payments to somehow be integrated into the social media company’s platform.
Bob Iaccino, chief strategist at Path Trading Partners and co-portfolio manager at Stock Think Tank, doubts that will happen. “It’s wishful thinking on the part of those invested in dogecoin,” said Iaccino. “If anything, his position on Twitter’s board makes it harder for him to use Twitter (if we were to assume he was deliberately using Twitter for this purpose) to pump the price of anything at all. He is in much more specific danger of regulatory action if he does that.”
“The speculation is that advertisers could be able to pay DOGE for ads and for other uses on Twitter,” said Kryptomon Chief Marketing Officer Tomer Nuni. “We have seen the same happening when Tesla revealed the ability to pay for its goods with DOGE. So the speculation could be around Musk’s businesses and stakeholdings starting to accept crypto, as Tesla does.”
Dogecoin’s falling wedge breakout underway
Musk’s Twitter investment also assisted Dogecoin in breaking out of a falling wedge pattern.
In detail, falling wedges are considered bullish reversal setups and appear when the price consolidates lower inside a range defined by two converging, descending trendlines while leaving behind a trail of lower highs and lower lows.
In a perfect scenario, falling wedges resolve after the price breaks decisively above their upper trendline. As it happens, traders typically eye a run-up toward the level that comes to be at length equal to the maximum distance between the wedge’s upper and lower trendline.
Dogecoin was having a good month prior to this week’s news, and is now higher by 30.6% over the last 30 days.
