However, not all goods can be purchased with cryptocurrency. For the first time, Tesla began accepting DOGE payments in 2022 for some products as an experiment.
Against the backdrop of such news, DOGE immediately grew by 21%, but then rolled back. At the time of writing, the price is $0.1629. Over the past year, the price of the main meme token has increased by more than 100%.
In terms of capitalization, the asset is in the top ten with an indicator of more than $23 billion.
