Musk’s tweet includes a few more Christmas-themed dog images. The famous billionaire, with his image “Merry Christmas everyone!” he shared. This tweet resonated with the community, as Musk hasn’t posted for DOGE for a while. The tweet was liked by 309 thousand people.
Will there be DOGE integration on Twitter?
The memes Musk shares are good, nice, but many in the community are wondering about DOGE’s integration into Twitter. For now, there has been no statement from Musk on this issue. As it is known, Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter was one of the events that affected DOGE the most for a long time. What drove the price of Dogecoin to $0.16 on November 1 was Musk’s takeover of Twitter. But a failed Twitter poll means that Elon Musk has found a successor to lead the social media platform. According to a December 20 tweet, Musk will continue to have the role of managing “software” and “server teams.”
So there is still reason to believe that Musk will try to install a payment system on Twitter. Most bullish claims about Dogecoin are that it will become an accepted currency on Twitter. This is believed to help secure long-term use cases for DOGE.
DOGE will be the first “meme” in space
Meanwhile, there are other exciting developments for DOGE on the Elon Musk front. The countdown has begun for the launch of SpaceX Falcon 9. As Elon Musk tweeted while announcing, this will be the first space mission paid for in Dogecoin. Thus, DOGE will be the “1st crypto in space” and “1st meme in space”. It remains to be seen whether this will signal the next Dogecoin price increase. It was Elon Musk who took Dogecoin to an all-time high of $0.74 in May 2021. So, will Musk send the Dogecoin price back up and above $0.1 in January? Currently DOGE is changing hands at $0.075.
