The price of Dogecoin (DOGE) has dropped by 2.5% in the past 24 hours, slipping to $0.076938 as the cryptocurrency market as a whole declines by 1%.

And it's arguable that Dogecoin remains in a very strong place fundamentally, given recent speculation that Twitter is moving ahead with digital payments and could integrate DOGE-based payments soon.
That DOGE payments are closer than ever was highlighted in the video above, which shows Elon Musk using a hypothetical example of
