Businessman suggests that Tesla electric vehicles will display the altcoin logo if they spot a Shiba Inu dog
CEO of Tesla and SpaceX Elon Musk wrote on Twitter, that perhaps, Tesla cars will display Dogecoin logo if they pass by the dog breed Shiba Inu.
So the billionaire responded to the publication of a social network user who said that Tesla’s autopilot is able to identify dogs.
Maybe if it sees a Shiba Inu, the car renders a Dogecoin …

Altcoin quotes practically did not react to his mention by Musk. At the moment, the Dogecoin rate increased by 2% and immediately returned to its previous values.
Earlier, the businessman repeatedly mentioned altcoin in his tweets and this led to an increase in its rate.
For example, in May, Elon Musk asked his followers if Tesla should add Dogecoin as a payment method for its electric vehicles. In a few minutes after the publication of the businessman, the price of the altcoin rose by 17%.
Do you want Tesla to accept Doge?

At the moment, almost 4 million users have taken part in the entrepreneur’s survey. Most of them (78%) supported Tesla’s support for Dogecoin.
Last Elon Musk mentioned Dogecoin, when called benefits altcoin before Bitcoin and Ethereum. Then the value of a digital coin increased by 14% within two hours.
BTC & ETH are pursuing a multilayer transaction system, but base layer transaction rate is slow & transaction cost is high.
There is merit imo to Doge maximizing base layer transaction rate & minimizing transaction cost with exchanges acting as the de facto secondary layer.
