The rise in Dogecoin is benefitting one congressman who purchased the cryptocurrency more than once this month.
Mark Green purchased $15,000 worth of Dogecoin on April 1.
Dogecoin, which traded at $.054 on April 1, is hovering around $0.39 on Monday, representing a gain of 632%.
Green's $15,000 purchase of Dogecoin on April 1 is worth $109,800
Other crypto purchases made by Green include Ethereum Classic and Stellar Lumens, according to the disclosure.
The surge in Dogecoin has befuddled many, as the dog-meme-inspired cryptocurrency was started as a joke in 2013 with an infinite amount of supply of the coin.
Even the creator of Dogecoin sold his stake years ago to buy a Honda Civic.
