After high-tech entrepreneur Elon Musk tweeted that he would soon return to creating memes, the price of DOGECOIN soared 30% in the last 24 hours.
Taking this as a potential sign that Mr. Musk will be pumping #DOGE again, DOGE has risen in price by 50% in a week and 57% in the last 30 days.
The rise came amid a growing bull market, with trading volume in #bitcoin ETFs spurring buying across the market.
Considering that DOGE has only risen 55% over the past year (mostly due to this week), #meme tokens have a lot of room for further gains.

Simply put, just because Elon Musk published a meme on Twitter doesn't mean that DOGE will immediately become a more powerful and useful token.
Nevertheless, the market seems to have taken his tweet as a sign that now is a good time to re-invest in DOGE.
It seems that not a few whales have capitalized on this interpretation, at least judging by recent remittance data.
