Elon Musk Says ‘Dogecoin to the Moon’

Tesla CEO Elon Musk stated that Tesla should enable DOGE payments for its vehicles during an event at Tesla’s Giga Berlin on Wednesday. Musk was asked by an audience member about the possibility of purchasing Tesla vehicles with DOGE. “When can you buy a Tesla with dogecoin?” Musk repeated the question before replying:

At some point, I think we should enable that … Dogecoin to the moon.

Musk pointed out that customers can already purchase some merchandise on the Tesla website using DOGE, “which is cool,” he said.
