It was all a joke for Dogecoin.<\/p>\n
The meme cryptocurrency started rallying earlier this week as a new TikTok challenge<\/a> urging users to push DOGE\/USD to $1 went viral. Launched by user James Galante, the video received more than 600,000 views. The challenge also started trending on Twitter.<\/p>\n “Let’s all get rich!” Galante said on July 2. “Dogecoin is practically worthless. There are 800 million TikTok users. Once it hits $1, you’ll have $10,000.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The outcome was a price explosion. The DOGE\/USD exchange rate rallied by more than 140 percent<\/a> in just two days of trading. Meanwhile, the 24-hour volumes of Dogecoin-enabled instruments skyrocketed by circa 690 percent from its mean level.<\/p>\n Even the Dogecoin’s official Twitter account warned people against joining the TikTok challenge, urging followers to “be smart.”<\/p>\n Be mindful of the intentions people have when they direct you to buy things. None of them are in the spot to be financially advising.<\/p>\n Make choices right for you, do not ride other peoples FOMO or manipulation. <\/p>\n Stay safe. Be smart. <\/p>\n \u2764\ufe0f #dogecoin<\/a><\/p>\n — Dogecoin (@dogecoin) July 8, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
