Dogecoin DOGE/USD has spiked off and on prompted by the antics of billionaire-entrepreneur Elon Musk.
Its most recent spike came over the Thanksgiving weekend when the cryptocurrency shot up on speculation that Ethereum ETH/USD co-creator Vitalik Buterin and Musk were working on upgrading the meme coin.

The Investment: A similar buzz surrounded the coin when Musk interacted with McDonald's Corporation MCD in late January about accepting DOGE. On Jan. 25, 2022, DOGE shot up to an intraday high of $0.1472 when McDonald's said it would accept the coin if Musk accepts one of its conditions.
Should an investor enter DOGE with a $100 investment at the time of writing when it traded at $0.095, here's how much they'd have if the bellwether meme coin touches the McDonald's buzz highs.
| Investment | Date Of Purchase/Listing | Purchase Amount | Purchase Price | Units/Shares Obtained | Worth If Doge Regains McDonald's Buzz Levels | Percentage Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dogecoin (DOGE) | Nov. 28, 2022 | $100 | $0.095 | 1052.63 | $154.95 | 54.95% |
Should DOGE regain the price where it was when the McDonald's buzz was at its peak, an investor would gain $54.95 in profit.
