Elon Musk has got a lot of things right in his career. Generating speculations for his beloved Dogecoin is yet another skill added to his arsenal. Now, the Tesla CEO has once again managed to spark the interest of the community as he hinted at accepting Dogecoin for Starlink- a satellite internet provider.
This response from the CEO came after Twitter user and author of CleanTechnica, Johnna Crider asked presented an idea for SpaceX merch store along with Starlink to accept Doge. Musk replied to her tweet with a winky face, which could mean that he was up to something.
Dogecoin co-founder, Billy Markus tweeted the picture of this conversation on his Twitter stating, “I wanna buy a model rocket with dog money”.
SpaceX’s Starlink aimed to provide better internet speed to customers in remote corners of the world. With 2,000 functional satellites, users can pay $99 a month to enjoy its services, with an additional $499 for the hardware kit.
It has become an event for the community along with Musk to promote DOGE and make it available for transactions. Recently, the community has been pushing SpaceX to enable DOGE payments, after it accepted the meme coin for a moon mission called DOGE-1. The mission is scheduled for sometime in the first quarter.
Even Tesla started accepting the meme digital asset for its merchandise. This generous adoption by Musk and his company has pushed the value of DOGE higher. At the time of press, the biggest meme coin sits at a price of $0.1454 with a loss of 0.40% in the past 24-hours.
Adding to this utility wave, the DOGE community was also wondering whether McDonald’s will accept Dogecoin and so was Musk. McDonald put up a picture with the date “2.13.22”, and captioned it “uhhhhhhhhhhh something’s coming,” and Elon Musk jumped in with sweet droplets emoji.
McDonald’s and Musk may be up to something but would it translate into the Fast food giant accepting the meme token as payments, is yet to be known. Till then, the community can find respite in DOGE once again entering the top 10 with a market capitalization of $19.28 billion.
