Can Tesla Ever Accept Payments in Dogecoin (DOGE)
The Dogecoin community has been longing for such a moment when DOGE holders will able to purchase a Tesla car directly without the need for conversion.
In February 2021, the anticipation of such a likely development grew wider after Tesla announced the incorporation of Bitcoin (BTC), the largest cryptocurrency by market cap, into its payment option.
The addition of Bitcoin boosted the hope of integrating Dogecoin (DOGE), due to the interest of Elon Musk in the crypto created out of meme.
It can be recalled that DOGE has been one of the best performers since the start of the year. The cryptocurrency has also accrued a lot of engagements from celebrities across the world, which has been aiding its massive price uptrend.
