The meme coin has now been listed on eToro, after a 42% gain in the last 24 hours

Dogecoin (DOGE), the meme-based cryptocurrency, has experienced a dramatic rise in price over the last 24 hours, equalling almost 50% in gains.

eToro is the latest platform to list DOGE. Along with Gemini, the platform will be hoping to capitalise on the growing popularity of the coin, resulting in them allowing users to buy DOGE. With a market value over $71 billion – a figure that makes the coin worth more than Twitter, Capital One and Nintendo to name a few – the coin could be set for further gains in the near future.

Dogecoin currently has a $75 billion market cap.

That's higher than…
• Capital One
• Nintendo
• Heineken
• Santander
• BMW
• Adidas
• Ferrari
• Honda
• Volvo
• Marriott
• Twitter
• Barclays
• eBay
• Delta
• Peloton
• DraftKings
• MGM Resorts
• Lyft
