The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been dissolved, according to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), despite its mandate being scheduled to continue through July 2026.

Despite the news, the meme coin associated with the Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy-led initiative is up by double digits.

Trump’s DOGE Project Is Over

DOGE began by executive order on Trump’s first day following reelection. Its mission was to dramatically streamline bureaucracy and cut $6.5 trillion in federal spending.

The launch sparked immediate attention, driving Dogecoin prices up over 10% on the announcement and leading to expectations of more crypto use in government.

OPM director Scott Kupor confirmed the dissolution, noting that DOGE doesn’t exist as a centralized entity. The department’s roles have shifted into OPM, while Trump now refers to DOGE in the past tense at public events.

The shutdown came eight months before its expected end. Musk left Washington in May. In June, turmoil appeared as staff packed personal items and searched for new homes, while tensions reportedly rose between Trump and Musk.

Despite its aggressive cost-cutting, the department quietly closed its doors.

Vivek Ramaswamy withdrew from the Ohio Senate race to focus on DOGE, but the department faced criticism for a lack of transparency and public accountability throughout its brief existence.

DOGE agents reportedly moved aggressively through agencies, making large personnel cuts and trimming budgets with minimal stakeholder input.

DOGE’s leadership claimed billions in savings, but no concrete, verifiable evidence has shown true cost reductions from these actions. This lack of transparent accounting has left many questioning whether DOGE improved spending efficiency at all.

Until shortly before its closure, DOGE’s official account posted regular updates on contract reductions, highlighting cost-cutting milestones in multiple agencies.

Contracts Update!

Over the last 9 days, agencies terminated and descoped 78 wasteful contracts with a ceiling value of $1.9B and savings of $335M, including an $616k HHS IT services contract for “social media monitoring platform subscription”, an $191k USAGM broadcasting… pic.twitter.com/83ldxUZ1NY

Some former DOGE employees are concerned about possible legal consequences related to their involvement in the department’s aggressive measures.

These concerns reveal persistent questions regarding whether DOGE’s practices crossed legal or ethical lines in its short tenure.

This transition marks a shift from DOGE’s drastic cost-cutting to broader government modernization. Critics have noted that only Congress can officially disband agencies, and DOGE’s scope was always limited to what executive actions could deliver.

Meanwhile, the Department Of Government Efficiency cryptocurrency token continues trading. Data on BeInCrypto shows the token’s price sits at $0.00483, up 13.62% in 24 hours.

The dissolution of DOGE raises questions about how sustainable rapid government restructurings can be, and what role executive actions play in structural reform.

As federal operations absorb former DOGE staff and the administration moves on, the real impact of DOGE’s brief experiment remains uncertain and open to further assessment.

Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) telah dibubarkan, menurut Office of Personnel Management (OPM), meskipun mandatnya dijadwalkan berlangsung hingga Juli 2026.

Walaupun ada berita ini, meme coin yang terkait dengan inisiatif yang dipimpin oleh Elon Musk dan Vivek Ramaswamy ini naik dengan persentase dua digit.

Proyek DOGE Trump Sudah Selesai

DOGE dimulai dengan perintah eksekutif pada hari pertama Trump setelah terpilih kembali. Misinya adalah untuk secara dramatis menyederhanakan birokrasi dan memotong US$6,5 triliun dalam pengeluaran federal.

Peluncuran ini langsung menarik perhatian, menaikkan harga Dogecoin lebih dari 10% pada pengumuman tersebut dan menyebabkan harapan lebih banyak penggunaan kripto di pemerintahan.

Direktur OPM, Scott Kupor, mengonfirmasi pembubaran ini, menyatakan bahwa DOGE tidak ada sebagai entitas terpusat. Peran departemen ini telah beralih ke OPM, sementara Trump sekarang merujuk DOGE dalam bentuk lampau di acara publik.

Penutupan ini terjadi delapan bulan sebelum akhir yang diharapkan. Musk meninggalkan Washington pada bulan Mei. Pada bulan Juni, kekacauan mulai tampak saat staf mengepak barang pribadi dan mencari tempat tinggal baru, sementara ketegangan dilaporkan meningkat antara Trump dan Musk.

Meskipun memotong biaya secara agresif, departemen ini menutup pintunya secara diam-diam.

Vivek Ramaswamy mundur dari pemilihan Senat Ohio untuk fokus pada DOGE, namun departemen ini menghadapi kritik karena kurangnya transparansi dan akuntabilitas publik selama keberadaannya yang singkat.

Para agen DOGE dilaporkan bergerak agresif melalui lembaga-lembaga, melakukan pengurangan personil besar-besaran dan memangkas anggaran dengan masukan pemangku kepentingan yang minim.

Pemimpin DOGE mengklaim miliaran penghematan, namun tidak ada bukti konkret yang dapat diverifikasi yang menunjukkan pengurangan biaya sebenarnya dari tindakan ini. Kekurangan akuntansi yang transparan ini membuat banyak pihak mempertanyakan apakah DOGE benar-benar meningkatkan efisiensi pengeluaran.

Hingga beberapa saat sebelum penutupannya, akun resmi DOGE rutin memposting pembaruan tentang pengurangan kontrak, menyoroti pencapaian pemotongan biaya di berbagai agensi.

Beberapa mantan karyawan DOGE khawatir tentang kemungkinan konsekuensi hukum terkait keterlibatan mereka dalam langkah-langkah agresif departemen tersebut.

Kekhawatiran ini mengungkapkan pertanyaan yang terus-menerus tentang apakah praktik DOGE melanggar batas hukum atau etika selama masa jabatannya yang singkat.

Transisi ini menandai pergeseran dari pemotongan biaya drastis DOGE ke modernisasi pemerintah yang lebih luas. Para kritikus mencatat bahwa hanya Kongres yang dapat secara resmi membubarkan lembaga, dan cakupan DOGE selalu terbatas pada apa yang dapat dicapai oleh tindakan eksekutif.

Sementara itu, token cryptocurrency Department Of Government Efficiency terus diperdagangkan. Data di BeInCrypto menunjukkan harga token tersebut mencapai US$0,00483, naik 13,62% dalam 24 jam.

Pembubaran DOGE menimbulkan pertanyaan tentang seberapa berkelanjutannya restrukturisasi pemerintah yang cepat dan peran tindakan eksekutif dalam reformasi struktural.

Seiring operasi federal menyerap mantan staf DOGE dan administrasi berlanjut, dampak nyata dari eksperimen singkat DOGE tetap tidak pasti dan terbuka untuk penilaian lebih lanjut.
