The Dogecoin community is celebrating this remarkable event. A member of the Dogecoin team posted a reminder that Musk’s date of birth, as the Tesla CEO once jokingly pointed out, has a sort of link with the DOGE day.

The X user @cb_doge (“DogeDesigner”) spread the word about Elon Musk’s birthday today and reminded the DOGE community that the world’s biggest DOGE fan was born “69 days after 4.20.”

This year, DOGE Day arrived right after the global crypto community celebrated another important event – the fourth Bitcoin halving. This year, it took place on April 19 in the U.S. and April 20 in Europe.

Crypto X is also celebrating Elon Musk’s birthday. His mother, Maye Musk, published a celebratory tweet, congratulating her son. Elon Musk posted a photo of himself, with a caption that says “30 years ago.”
