Community still awaiting DOGE payments on Twitter
However, the community still expects Musk to introduce crypto payments on Twitter, hoping them to be in DOGE – Elon Musk’s favorite digital currency focused on memes and the biggest one in terms of market cap among meme coins.In April this year, Musk changed the logo of Twitter (the famous blue bird) to a Dogecoin mascot, which pushed the price of DOGE up roughly 10%. However, the old logo was put back in about a week’s time.
The Dogefather goes live
Earlier this week, Elon Musk teased an upcoming feature for making live videos and streams on Twitter. Today, he tested it publicly, going live from Twitter office. An hour later, he tweeted that “Live video now works reasonably well” and wrote that in order to start, one needs just to tap the button that “looks like a camera”, when one is making a post.A Twitter user commented, saying “ is live!”
That was a quote of Musk's tweet in which he referred to himself in this way, paraphrasing the title of the classic movie "The Godfather". After that tweet and Elon Musk's debut on the Saturday Night Live show, DOGE surged to an all-time high of $0.7376 on May 8, 2021. Currently, Dogecoin is trading nearly 90% below that level.
