Dogecoin hits a months-high as ETF inflows surge and X adds trading links
Dogecoin returned to $0.10 after reaching $0.1059; US spot DOGE ETFs took in $909,650, and X launched trading links to five platforms.
Why it matters
The $909,650 US spot DOGE ETF inflow on September 21 was more than three times the $284,510 recorded on September 15, according to Crypto News. X's Cashtag links display DOGE market information and a Trade option, but Crypto News said the program did not make DOGE a payment asset on the platform.
