Supporter of cryptocurrency Meltem Demirors said that Dogecoin price skyrocketing is a ‘madness’ and this is the reason its digital investment company is moving away from cryptocurrency which originated in this meme.
“Dogecoin is a classic bubble in my opinion,” said Meltem Demirors, CoinShares chief strategist.
“I’m not saying it’s good or bad … Dogecoin is not for me. The company doesn’t make analysis on Dogecoin for a reason. We don’t own and do not trade Dogecoin.”
