Dogecoin (DOGE), the largest meme coin in the crypto space, has gained attention following Elon Musk’s announcement of increased transparency for the newly proposed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), President-elect Donald Trump confirmed that Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy would head the department. The agency aims to eliminate wasteful spending and reform government operations. It also seeks to streamline public service functions, a move expected to introduce greater efficiency.

Trump stated that Musk’s leadership would help “dismantle government bureaucracy, reduce excessive regulations, cut wasteful spending, and restructure federal agencies.” Musk added that the initiative would upset those benefiting from inefficiencies while tackling the country’s fiscal challenges.
Musk emphasized the need to address the unsustainable fiscal trajectory of the United States, pointing to the $1 trillion defense budget and the substantial interest payments on national debt. His remarks have fueled discussions around the role of DOGE in broader economic reform.
“I need a lot of security, but it’s got to be done, and if it’s not done, we’ll just go bankrupt.”
