Musk Tweets Send Meme Coin Skyrocketing

It is not the first time that an Elon Musk tweet has impacted crypto price. Meme coin Floki Inu (FLOKI) was created after Elon Musk tweeted that he would name his Shiba Inu, Floki.

And in 2021, BeInCrypto reported that Musk posting a picture of his dog resulted in over 1,000% gains in some meme coins.

Last month, he changed the Twitter logo to a Doge logo, which resulted in Dogecoin (DOGE) rallying over 34%. But after Musk reinstalled the original Twitter logo, DOGE price plummeted almost back to its pre-rally levels.
