[SNS세상]Musk “I’ll give you real dollars if you sell Dogecoin”

Tesla’s CEO, Elon Musk, who announced the purchase of the cryptocurrency’Dojicoin’, urged him to release more Dojicoin.

On the 15th, Musk wrote on his Twitter, “If a large number of Dogecoin holders sell Dogecoin, you will receive my full support. The only problem is the excessive concentration of Dogecoin volume.”

“If they empty their Dogecoin account, I will pay the real dollar,” Musk said.

It means that a small number of large Dojicoin holders have publicly announced that they will buy them if they release their stock.

Dogecoin is known as a cryptocurrency created by software developers Billy Marcus and Jackson Palmer in 2013 for fun.

They used the Japanese Shiba Inu, which was popular as an Internet meme (photo and video popular on the Internet) at the time, as the mascot of Dojicoin, and the currency name is also named “Doji,” which means Shiba Inu meme.

Such Dogecoin prices surged this year as Musk frequently mentions it. In fact, Musk announced through Twitter on the 10th that he bought Dogecoin for his son.

In addition, Dogecoin was attracting attention among the participants of Reddit, an online community that symbolizes individual American investors.

Accordingly, the price of Dogecoin, which was $0.007 at the end of January, soared to $0.08 in February, recording a record high. As of the 15th, the price of Dogecoin is slightly lower than the 0.05 dollar level. Dogecoin is currently the 13th largest cryptocurrency with a market capitalization of about $7 billion.
