Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk hinted that his satellite internet venture Starlink could soon accept the largest memecoin, Dogecoin. Developed by the private aerospace company, SpaceX, Starlink offers cost-efficient low-cost, high-speed broadband internet connections to the remotest corners of the planet.

On Feb. 14, a Twitter user asked Elon Musk if SpaceX merchandise store and Starlink will accept his favourite cryptocurrency Dogecoin as a payment method. In a very subtle way, Musk indicated that there might be a possibility of that happening after he replied with a winking face emoji.

Responding to the exchange was none other than Dogecoin co-founder Billy Markus who commented that he wants to buy a model rocket with dog money.

If this turns out to be real, it won’t come as a surprise really considering Musk's Tesla has already begun accepting DOGE payments for a few of its products last month.
<h3><strong>DOGE-Funded Moon Mission</strong></h3>
Musk’s SpaceX has been bullish on Dogecoin for a very long time. In fact, the company last year launched a Moon mission called “DOGE-1 Mission to the Moon” that was funded entirely in DOGE. The launch was initially planned for the first quarter of this year but recent updates indicate a March 2022 release.

SpaceX’s vice president of commercial sales, <a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/doge-1-is-scheduled-to-launch-in-early-2022-with-spacex/">Tom Ochinero</a> stated that this mission would demonstrate the application of cryptocurrency beyond Earth and at the same time establish the foundation for interplanetary commerce.
