Dogecoin was ranked among the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market value. A group of Redditors also hyped Dogecoin after the whole GameStop saga.

As reported earlier, Tesla announced that it had invested around $1.5 billion in Bitcoin, and it plans to begin accepting the cryptocurrency as payment for its high-end vehicles soon. The news sent the price of bitcoin soaring above $46,000 as the cryptocurrency set a new all-time high. At the time of writing, BTC is changing hands at just above $46,600. Elon Musk had earlier said that bitcoin might see mainstream acceptance from the traditional financial people.
