Elon Musk’s statement about the possible development of his own smartphone helped the Dogecoin cryptocurrency to grow sharply

Dogecoin has shown a huge increase (over 15 percent) in the last twenty-four hours. This happened after Twitter’s new boss Elon Musk said that he would launch his own smartphone if Twitter has problems with popular mobile app stores.

Musk’s tweet appeared on Friday, and it was then that Dogecoin, which is actively supported by Elon Musk, began to grow. Since Friday, the coin has risen from $ 0.0810 to $ 0.0936. However, the price has now dropped slightly, with DOGE trading at $ 0.0926 on Binance.

Musk was responding to a tweet by podcaster Elizabeth Wheeler, who worried that Twitter, under its new owner, might ban stores where the two smartphone operating system makers sell Android and iOS apps.

«I certainly hope it doesn’t come to that, but, yes, if there’s no other way, I’ll make an alternative phone,» Musk commented.
