Dogecoin Community Reaches Major Milestone

The official Twitter account of meme cryptocurrency Dogecoin has recently surpassed three million followers. It’s the second-largest cryptocurrency on the popular social media platform (behind only Bitcoin). 

For comparison, rival meme coin Shiba Inu has 2.7 million Twitter followers. The Dogecoin account has witnessed astonishing growth over the past year, recording a 681% increase in followers. The canine coin’s Reddit community also boasts 2.3 million subscribers. It was the most viewed cryptocurrency-related subreddit of 2021. 

Dogecoin’s popularity exploded in the fourth quarter of 2021 because of its Elon Musk-driven price rally. The Twitter account topped a million followers by the end of April amid an unprecedented retail-driven mania. 

However, this impressive growth stalled after the price of the joke cryptocurrency started crashing in early May. The original meme coin, which was inspired by the Doge meme, was still up almost 5,000% in 2021, easily outperforming the vast majority of other top cryptocurrencies. 

Dogecoin co-founder Billy Markus has also surpassed a million Twitter followers, making him one of the most popular cryptocurrency founders. His account has benefited from frequent interactions with Musk, who boasts a staggering 72.8 million followers. 

Jackson Palmer, the Australian programmer who created the meme token with Markus, has a modest 41,600 followers. Last July, he shocked the cryptocurrency industry in a viral tweet, describing it as “a powerful cartel” run by wealthy individuals.

DOGE Price Is Expected To Reach These Levels

The Dogecoin price chart shows us that DOGE has been quite bullish in recent sessions, having pushed up to $0.156. If buyers retain the session, we could see DOGE push to $0.160. However, if sellers retake the session, we could see DOGE drop to $0.150.
