The growth of Dogecoin and Shiba Inu is primarily attributed to support from Tesla CEO Elon Musk. In a recent conference hosted in California, Musk said:
“It is not possible to, I think, destroy crypto, but it is possible for governments to slow down its advancement.”
Moreover, the entrepreneur believes that the United States government should “do nothing” for regulating cryptocurrencies.
