However, major media outlets have questioned DOGE\u2019s numbers, some of which have pointed out discrepancies in the task force\u2019s savings reports. For example, one claim of $8 billion in savings was just $8 million\u2014a significant overstatement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]\">But if the plan does work, here\u2019s how Azoria financial analyst James Fishback thinks it\u2019ll go down:<\/p>\n<p>(<a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.semafor.com\/article\/02\/18\/2025\/a-maga-adviser-is-proposing-a-doge-dividend\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DOGE<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]\">Fishback\u2019s plan suggests a one-time $5,000 rebate check would be issued to households that pay federal income tax. Estimates indicate this would include about 79 million households.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-body font-regular leading-[24px] pt-[9px] pb-[2px]\">However, the funds would only become available if DOGE reaches its original <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/elon-musks-doge-targets-sec-as-it-expands-cash-cutting-campaign-across-federal-agencies\/\">$2 trillion savings goal<\/a>. Additionally, the checks would require approval from Congress\u2014an uphill battle given the current political climate.<\/p>\n<p>Yet this is Donald Trump and Elon we\u2019re talking about, so anything is possible.<\/p>\n<h2>Solana Founder is Crashing Out: Did We Break Anatoly?<\/h2>\n<p>(X)<\/p>\n<p>After suffering a <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/solana-sentiment-falls-off-a-cliff-after-a-40-drop-in-4-weeks-whats-next\/\">10% drop on Solana<\/a> this week, the founder Anatoly Yakovenko appears to be sperging out.<\/p>\n<p>Some days, I still can\u2019t understand how Sam Bankman-Fried\u2019s private playground chain became this huge after the FTX collapse.
