Goals and aims of the new agency

DOGE will focus on dismantling bureaucracy and revising the structure of federal agencies, aiming for substantial cuts to the $6.5 trillion annual government spending. The agency will collaborate with the White House and the Office of Management and Budget to implement an entrepreneurial approach to government.

Impact on Dogecoin and cryptocurrencies

Following Trump's presidential victory, the price of Dogecoin, Elon Musk’s favorite cryptocurrency, surged by 150%, peaking above $0.4 for the first time since May 2021. This rise accompanies Musk's appointment to DOGE, marking the strengthening of his relationship with Trump.

The creation of DOGE marks a new phase in the approach to US government finances, aiming to reduce expenses and bureaucracy with business-led initiatives headed by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy.
