Simmons has emerged as a major celebrity voice supporting cryptocurrencies. In 2017, Simmons said that he was interested in Bitcoin as part of his investment strategy. “I am interested in Bitcoin, but only as a piece of the investment puzzle,” he said. 

Simmons’ move to invest in DOGE and XRP comes amid a massive bull run in both cryptocurrencies. As reported by Cointelegraph, both Dogecoin and XRP have been likely pumped by the controversial Reddit community r/Wallstreetbets.

At publishing time, XRP is trading at $0.59, up over 32% over the past 24 hours. DOGE is trading at $0.039, surging around 41% over the past 24 hours.
