Why Is It Moving? Dogecoin traded flat while other major coins traded lower at press time. The global cryptocurrency market cap declined 1.7% to $1.9 trillion.
DOGE was among the most mentioned coins on Twitter. It attracted 2,908 tweets at press time, according to Cointrendz data.
The three most mentioned coins — Bitcoin, Shiba Inu, and Ethereum — attracted 9,535, 7,450, and 4,887 tweets, respectively.

Meanwhile, the hope building around possible announcement of DOGE acceptance by McDonalds was dashed Sunday after the restaurant chain released a new advertisement for the Super Bowl game.
A McDonald’s tweet — that referenced the as-of-yet-unreleased advertisement — was acknowledged by Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk with a “sweat droplets” emoji.
DOGE co-creator Billy Markus told his Twitter following that if they “believed the rumor, examine your thought process and who you were listening to very carefully, cuz it was a pretty silly one.”
