Portfolio Pulse from Mehab Qureshi
Dogecoin (DOGE) experienced a significant rally over the weekend, with its price jumping over 10% from $0.078 to $0.090, driven by excitement over a new 'X payments' system. However, the rally has since paused, with DOGE's price dropping by 4% to $0.083. The downturn coincided with $2.65 million worth of Dogecoin long positions being liquidated. The market cap of Dogecoin has risen to approximately $11.8 billion. Speculation is growing that the tech billionaire behind the 'X payments' system may enter the blockchain payment services sector, which could be related to Elon Musk's known support for Dogecoin.
