Elon Musk Authenticates Dogecoin Has Potential as Currency
Elon Musk has again called the meme coin “people’s crypto” to highlight its widespread appeal. Because of its inflationary operation, Dogecoin is a viable currency since it encourages people to spend more. People are unlikely to hoard the meme coin since it doesn’t work as a store of value.

Bitcoin, on the other hand, is a disinflationary currency, which makes it “not a good substitute” for transactional currency, according to Musk.
That said, the Tesla boss has previously expressed doubts as to whether Dogecoin will be able to replace fiat.
Just last month, Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev suggested that Dogecoin was a much cheaper alternative to popular card networks. For this to happen, the meme coin’s block time has to be reduced to ten seconds.
Although, Dogecoin has currently spiked more than 19% from its peak, which was achieved one year ago. The meme cryptocurrency saw a short-lived price spike after Twitter finalized its deal with Musk. However, the meme cryptocurrency then plunged lower together with the rest of the market. Earlier this week, its price dropped below 10 cents.

In the tweet that attracted Musk’s attention, Billy Markus, the co-founder of the joke cryptocurrency, states that he likes the joke cryptocurrency because “it knows it is stupid.”
The centibillionaire previously half-jokingly predicted that Dogecoin could become the currency of Earth. It would be “the most entertaining outcome,” according to the controversial entrepreneur.
