Dogecoin Payments For Cars: The Quiet Promise That Tesla’s New Code Carries
Tesla is making significant backend code updates that strongly suggest an imminent integration of Dogecoin (DOGE) payments for purchasing its cars, including the Model 3 and Cybertruck. According to community member DogeMemeGirl, the new code, which is deeply woven into the vehicle ordering process, represents a "massive" upgrade from the old, dormant system previously used only for merchandise. It includes hidden "order with Dogecoin" buttons, real-time price conversion, and dynamic error handling. Notably, Bitcoin references have been removed, indicating DOGE may be the only cryptocurrency accepted. This development follows Elon Musk's earlier promise and coincides with speculation that his platform X may also integrate DOGE into its upcoming payment system. At the time of writing, DOGE is trading around $0.14.
