For those unaware, this department aims to overhaul government operations by cutting bureaucratic waste and enhancing efficiency, aligning closely with Trump’s “Save America” movement.
With this initiative Trump intends to significantly reduce federal spending and reform regulatory policies, hinting at a substantial shift in how Washington could operate under his administration.
Remarking on the same in a statement Trump said,
“Together, these two wonderful Americans will pave the way for my Administration to dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies,”
How did Musk and Ramaswamy react?
Responding to this, Vivek Ramaswamy noted,
“DOGE will soon begin crowdsourcing examples of government waste, fraud, & and abuse. Americans voted for drastic government reform & they deserve to be part of fixing it.”
In a separate tweet, he issued a warning stating,
“We will not go gently, @elonmusk.”
Musk echoed the sentiment, and suggested,
“This will send shockwaves through the system, and anyone involved in Government waste, which is a lot of people!”
Impact on DOGE memecoin
As expected, the announcement of Trump’s proposed D.O.G.E boosted Dogecoin [DOGE], with the meme-inspired cryptocurrency experiencing a nearly 10% price surge shortly after the news broke.
Increased trading volumes reflected investor enthusiasm, as renewed market interest breathed life into Dogecoin’s momentum.
However, as per the latest CoinMarketCap update, DOGE’s price has since retracted by 8.73% over the past 24 hours.
However, Dogecoin’s weekly surge has been remarkable, with the memecoin soaring over 97%—the highest weekly gain DOGE has seen in months.
Hence, analysts speculate that Dogecoin might soon reach $2.40, and some remain optimistic about even higher targets if the market rally continues.
