Dogecoin DOGE/USD is surging in Monday trading, bolstered by Elon Musk shouting out the apex meme coin.
What Happened: At Donald Trump‘s controversial rally in Madison Square Garden on Sunday, Musk was introduced as the “co-founder of the Department of Government Efficiency,” directly referencing the ticker “DOGE.”
In his remarks, he said "the department of government efficiency will fix that,” making another reference to DOGE.
Crypto trader Kaduna thinks that Musk’s emphasis on the Department of Government Efficiency will increase if Donald Trump were to win the presidency, predicting that this topic could make its way into national television discussions.
Following Musk’s remarks, chart analyst Ali Martinez projects a target of $0.175 for Dogecoin, provided its current support level remains intact.
