Dogecoin Sees 'Record-Breaking' New Addresses In A Single Day, Says Analyst — After Mark Cuban Says 'Yes' To DOGE

Cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez has shone the spotlight on meme cryptocurrency Dogecoin DOGE/USD, citing an uptick in new cryptocurrency addresses.

What Happened: According to Martinez, the Dogecoin network has experienced over 1,100% increase in the number of new addresses in just a week. 

The analyst tweeted on X, “On January 29 alone, a record-breaking 247,240 new DOGE addresses were created, marking an all-time high." Martinez suggested that the continued growth of the network “could soon reflect positively on DOGE prices.”

Dogecoin climbed past the notable $0.80 mark in the last 2 days. This jump in price comes with the continued acceptance of Dogecoin as a means of payment, like the Dallas Mavericks basketball team, owned by Mark Cuban, confirming to continue accepting DOGE transactions.

Additionally, speculations about the potential integration of Dogecoin as a payment option on X, likely influenced by Elon Musk’s well-known interest in the meme coin. These speculations have stoked the flames of the current rally.

Why It Matters: Earlier, this week, cryptocurrency analyst Muro said that DOGE will see a surge in its price. “Kinda have the feeling that the DOGE is gonna pop," he tweeted.

Over the weekend, Dogecoin saw a 10% rise in value following the introduction of a new verified account linked to a highly anticipated payment feature on the X app, an initiative of Elon Musk. 

Price Action: DOGE was trading at $0.080, down 1.21% in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro.
