Elon Musk announced payment in dogecoins in SpaceX stores
Traditionally, this raised the DOGE rate for a short time.
Musk also spoke about the prospects for crypto payments when subscribing to Starlink Internet.
Elon Musk again confirmed warm feelings for the Dogecoin meme-currency. In his Twitter, he announced plans to implement it in SpaceX stores.

As always, Elon’s tweet helped dogecoin increase in price. This time, however, the movement was small (but the market is not on the rise either). In an hour, DOGE rose from $0.0783 to $0.0849 (an increase of 8%).
The SpaceX store sells space-themed women’s, men’s and children’s clothing. Also here you can buy accessories – thermos, stickers, mugs, backpacks, posters and caps. At the time of writing, all products are sold only for dollars.
One of the users asked when it would be possible to pay for the Internet subscription from Starlink with dogecoins. The answer was: “Maybe someday.”
maybe one day

The Tesla store allowed payments in DOGE in January of this year. It is the only cryptocurrency accepted by the electric car manufacturer.
Elon Musk has long been a supporter of cryptocurrencies, especially bitcoin and dogecoin. In his opinion, bitcoin is the undisputed leader when it comes to preserving assets. And Dogecoin is more suitable for everyday small purchases.
