What do you think? Will Dogecoin be able to survive without Elon Musk? Or will it simply vanish like the rest of the other "shitcoins" on the market? Is the DOGE hype over? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

We don't know how much Dogecoin Elon Musk is holding. If he sells a portion of Dogeoin, will the price of Dogecoin be able to stay at its current price? Apart from Elon Musk, there are many investors who are still holding Dogecoin at the moment. I'm not sure they will hold Dogecoin for good. If they sell them all then the price of Dogecoin will drop.
I think Doge coin won't survive without patronage of Elon Musk because fundamentally it is very weak, it has no use case and I hope you remember that its price was few cents before Elon Musk started tweeting about it. It can only survive if its developers team builds it use case, like its wallet, swap or exchange to compete with other coins as well as its marketing team performs well.
