DOGE pranoi opsionin e pagesës për mallrat e Tesla

Neither Tesla nor Elon Musk has issued an official announcement concerning this move. Nevertheless, it doesn’t come as a surprise as Musk is a self-proclaimed Dogecoin fan. Besides Tesla, Musk has also previously indicated that his other multi-billion-dollar enterprise, Starlink, would also start allowing DOGE payments for subscriptions.
