Musk Bullish on DOGE
Dogecoin’s mascot feature in Tesla’s Cyber Rodeo may not come as a surprise to many because the owner of the American electric car company, Elon Musk, has always been bullish about the memecoin.
The Tesla boss on several occasions has promoted the token on his Twitter handle, causing the asset class’ value to increase.
Musk also went a step forward in his support for DOGE by enabling Dogecoin payments for the purchase of Tesla cars.
