Elon Musk did not create Dogecoin. Dogecoin is a digital currency created in December 2013 by programmers Billy Marcus and Jackson Palmer. The project began as a joke inspired by the popular internet meme “Doge” featuring an image of a Shiba Inu.
However, Elon Musk has had a significant impact on the price and popularity of Dogecoin through his tweets and public statements about the coin, increasing interest in it and attracting more investors.
