Dogecoin Founder Predicts Media Coverage Surge for DOGE if Trump Wins 2024 Election

In a recent post on X, Billy Markus, the co-creator of Dogecoin, expressed his anticipation for the mainstream media's eventual coverage of Dogecoin, especially if Donald Trump wins the 2024 U.S. election.

Markus, who goes by the name “Shibetoshi Nakamoto,” defended Elon Musk against what he termed a “media spin machine,” emphasizing how the media often distorts public figures’ images.

He humorously shared a meme depicting a Roman soldier, in which Caesar mocks another soldier—Musk—who is struggling to suppress his laughter.

Markus believes that if Trump, a notable supporter of cryptocurrency, secures victory, it could normalize crypto coverage in the mainstream media, which has historically overlooked it.

Markus praised Musk’s transparency but pointed out that it often makes him a target for misleading narratives. He criticized the media’s portrayal of Musk as “lazy and banal,” indicating that the honest nature of the billionaire can be exploited by bad actors.
