As the U.S. election draws closer, the crypto market is seeing significant moves. While Bitcoin (BTC) slipped below $67,000 amid election uncertainty and Mt. Gox wallet activity, Dogecoin (DOGE) surged, becoming the top gainer. Investors view this rise as a sign that DOGE could benefit the most if Donald Trump wins, especially with Elon Musk as a supporter.
Why Did Dogecoin Rise Despite Bitcoin’s Drop?
Despite Trump’s increased odds of winning on Polymarket, Bitcoin didn’t see a boost, wiping out last week’s gains. However, DOGE bucked the trend, climbing by 11.3% in the last 24 hours. Analysts believe Dogecoin is in a prime position to gain from Trump’s potential win, especially with Musk’s endorsement of both Trump and DOGE.
Crypto analyst Satoshi Flipper even predicts that Trump’s victory could trigger a major rally for DOGE, potentially pushing it to $1. Flipper notes that Musk’s support and initiatives involving DOGE could drive this surge.
As of writing, DOGE is trading at $0.167, showing a strong upward trend that has investors excited about what’s next.
