The cryptocurrency market is seeing yet another turbulent day, amid Elon Musk tweets and rising valuations.
After bitcoin recovered some of the losses it has made in recent weeks, its price was mostly flat, though still volatile. The same was true in other big cryptocurrencies, with ethereum (ether) the only major one making gains.
But much of the focus is on Dogecoin, after another cryptic tweet from Elon Musk. He referred to himself as the “Dogefather” in a post, and referenced his appearance on SNL next month – while it wasn’t clear what he had planned, it was enough to push the price up almost 20 per cent.
