The first bit that investors will want to note about the DOGE rally is that it comes after overtaking Cardano (ADA-USD). This saw its market capitalization rise above ADA’s, which pushed it to the eighth spot in the list of cryptos ranked by market caps.

And it’s not like DOGE wasn’t rallying before that. The value of the token has been seeing solid gains over the last few days. This follows the successful acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk.

Why Does Musk Buying Twitter Matter?

Elon Musk has been a vocal supporter of Dogecoin, with Twitter being his platform of choice for sharing memes and updates about the crypto. This has many traders of the token seeing his purchase of the social media company as a win for DOGE.

Adding to this, Musk hasn’t slowed the brakes on posting Dogecoin memes, either. The new Chief Twit, and CEO of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) and SpaceX, shared an image of a Siba Inu wearing a shirt with the Twitter logo today.

With all of this recent interest comes heavy trading. The 24-hour trading volume for DOGE is up 52.2% as of Tuesday morning. The crypto is also up 15.1% at that same time.
