American citizens may soon receive a significant financial boost if the U.S. government follows through on its plan to cut spending and save trillions of dollars.
While this move appears to be an act of fiscal responsibility, it could also have unexpected benefits for $DOGE—given its name’s connection to a department led by Elon Musk.
This so-called “airdrop for the masses” could further fuel interest in meme coins, particularly those offering free airdrops, such as BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL). Below, we break down the details.
Job Cuts, Terminated Contracts: A DOGE-y Savings Plan?
Donald Trump and Elon Musk—arguably the most unexpected duo of the century—have forged a partnership that feels like a match made in crypto heaven.
Both are big supporters of cryptocurrency, with Trump signing an executive order and Musk leading the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which shares the name of the popular meme coin.
Over the past several weeks, Musk’s DOGE made sweeping changes across the US government, which led to cuts in the federal workforce, termination of federal contracts, and unprecedented access to Treasury data, among other things.
These moves aim to help the US government save around $2T, according to Trump and Musk. Now, they want to give some of it back to American taxpayers.

Earlier this week, Musk shared on X Azoria CEO and co-founder James Fishback’s proposal to send out a so-called ‘DOGE dividend’. The X CEO tweeted he would check with Trump about the idea of distributing 20% of the government’s savings to American citizens, with another 20% going to repaying the national debt.
‘I love it,’ was Trump’s response in an interview aboard Air Force One.
If the plan pushes through and the government reaches its $2T savings goal, that means every American household that pays federal income tax will receive $5K. In crypto terms, the US government would airdrop the said amount to its beloved taxpayers.
This move could also add goodwill to DOGE—the coin, not the department—which Musk has hyped on social media over the years. It sure could use a little boost, as it slipped to $0.25 in February after hitting a $0.46 high in December last year.
But if there’s a cryptocurrency that rarely needs an introduction or social media hype, that’d be Bitcoin ($BTC). It’s the biggest and most popular crypto on the planet, with a market cap of $1.94T.
$BTCBULL: You Get a $BTC Airdrop, Everybody Gets a $BTC Airdrop
Many meme coins try to associate themselves with popular coins like $BTC, $PEPE, and $DOGE. But none of these get as much attention at the moment as $BTCBULL.
The project bets on a $BTC bull run to rally people to invest in its token. Its main draw is the free $BTC airdrops $BTCBULL holders will receive when Bitcoin reaches $150K and $200K. It’s a compelling proposal, as BTC Bull Token has already raised over $2.5M since its presale began last week.
Aside from the free $BTC airdrop, the project will also airdrop its own $BTCBULL tokens when $BTC reaches the $250K mark. While it’s difficult to say when BTC Bull will reach this milestone, it’s worth mentioning that $BTC is currently trading near the $100K level at $98K.
It could be sooner, though, as Standard Chartered’s Geoffrey Kendrick said that $BTC could reach $500K by the end of Trump’s term.
Another part of the project’s roadmap is the scheduled token burns when $BTC hits $125K, $175K, and $225K. These milestones would reduce the $BTCBULL token supply, making the remaining ones more valuable. This rewards hodlers and encourages them to keep their tokens for as long as possible.
Users can also stake their coins. BTC Bull’s staking pool currently contains over 611M tokens, which would earn rewards for as long as these users lock their tokens. At the moment, the staking APY is at 172%.
