Elon Musk has officially concluded his role as a "Special Government Employee" leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under President Donald Trump. His tenure, which began in January 2025, was set for 130 days and has now ended, aligning with federal regulations.
In his farewell message on X (formerly Twitter), Musk expressed gratitude to President Trump for the opportunity to reduce wasteful spending and stated that the DOGE mission would continue to strengthen over time.
During his time with DOGE, Musk implemented aggressive cost-cutting measures, including significant layoffs and the elimination of various federal programs. However, these actions sparked widespread controversy and multiple lawsuits, particularly concerning employee firings, transparency issues, and access to sensitive information.
Despite stepping down from his official role, Musk is expected to remain an influential figure in political circles, continuing to advise President Trump on various matters.
As for Dogecoin (DOGE), the cryptocurrency associated with Musk's public endorsements, its price remains relatively stable. Currently, DOGE is trading at $0.220013, reflecting a slight increase of 0.00167% from the previous close.
The future of DOGE and its association with Musk's departure from DOGE will likely continue to be a topic of interest and speculation in both the cryptocurrency and political arenas.
