Elon Musk Sparks Dogecoin Buzz with Playful Offer to Creator

Elon Musk has once again stirred excitement in the crypto world with a playful exchange involving Dogecoin creator Shibetoshi Nakamoto.

Responding to Nakamoto’s lighthearted social media post about being unemployed, Musk quipped, “Wanna work at DOGE? Would be kinda perfect.”

While the original post was deleted, Musk’s comment fueled speculation about its potential impact on Dogecoin, which saw a 5% price increase within 24 hours.

Musk, known for his influence on Dogecoin, heads the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), an advisory initiative aimed at improving U.S. federal spending.

Despite facing legal challenges shortly after its formation, the department continues to draw attention, particularly as Musk explores blockchain technology to enhance its operations.

This exchange has reignited enthusiasm among Dogecoin investors, who see Musk’s playful remarks as another example of his ability to influence the token’s trajectory.

Whether or not Nakamoto takes up the invitation, the interaction has added momentum to Dogecoin’s market presence and Musk’s ongoing role in shaping its narrative.
