Benzinga - by Mehab Qureshi, Benzinga Staff Writer.

Dogelon Mars (CRYPTO: ELON), a doge-themed token project inspired by Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) and Elon Musk’s ambitions for Mars colonization, has experienced a notable surge of over 7% in the past 24 hours, surpassing the performance of both Dogecoin and Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB).

What Happened: At the time of writing, the price of Dogelon Mars (ELON) stood at $0.0000001401, while DOGE and SHIB exhibited slight declines of 0.13% and 0.30%, respectively, over the same period.

The significance of Dogelon Mars lies in its mission to emulate the success of Dogecoin while leveraging Musk’s vision for establishing a human presence on Mars. This unique combination has propelled the project forward, resulting in its recent surge.

Interestingly, the momentum behind Dogelon Mars can also be attributed to the introduction of an NFT collection specifically tailored for the ELONgevity community – a collective of Dogelon Mars and Methuselah Foundation supporters.
