- The Dogecoin community will embrace DOGE payments if integrated on X.
- Elon Musk’s love and influence for the memecoin might be the unique factors in this pursuit
Dogecoin (DOGE) has recently made headlines as numerous responses to a survey from DOGE-themed account, @dogeofficialceo indicate a resounding willingness within the Dogecoin community to use DOGE for transactions on the X platform. Some users expressed their readiness, suggesting that they would support the idea if X users could seamlessly link their wallets to the platform.
Elon Musk’s Vision for X
The survey from @dogeofficialceo was triggered when news circulated that Elon Musk was gearing up to launch Peer-to-Peer (P2P) payments on the X platform. Musk’s vision, as outlined in the company’s official blog post, is to introduce P2P payments within the year, enhancing the platform’s utility and offering new opportunities for commerce.

Musk envisions Twitter’s X evolving into an “everything app,” eliminating the need for traditional bank accounts and becoming a preferred platform for transactions. Elon Musk’s affinity for Dogecoin is no secret, and he has openly expressed his support for the memecoin in various interviews.
Musk, who holds a sizable amount of Dogecoins in his portfolio, believes that Dogecoin is better suited for payments than Bitcoin. Even before acquiring Twitter in October 2022, Musk had discussed the idea of integrating DOGE payments on X, aligning with his enthusiasm for the memecoin.
While Elon Musk has not officially confirmed the integration of DOGE on X, the platform has been steadily introducing financial features to facilitate user interactions with various investment instruments. X’s partnership with eToro last year allowed users to access stock data, cryptocurrency prices, and other essential financial information.
Additionally, X has obtained transmitter licenses in multiple U.S. states, aiming to broaden its scope beyond simple transfers and envisioning a system where users won’t need traditional bank accounts.
Nevertheless, Musk has stated unequivocally that the company (and all of his enterprises) will not produce a native cryptocurrency. As a result, he debunked claims that “X coin” will be created.
Potential Impact on Dogecoin
Integration of Dogecoin into the X platform could drive mass adoption of the digital asset, potentially influencing a surge in its price. As of the current market data, DOGE is trading at $0.07811, down 4% with a market capitalization of $11.15 billion and a 24-hour trading volume of $350 million.

Despite this gloom, some analysts even predict a rally to $1.5 based on technical patterns and historical data.
The Dogecoin community finds itself on the brink of a new chapter with the potential integration of DOGE payments on X platform. This development, if it becomes actualized, will not only mark a milestone for Dogecoin but also reflects the broader trend of cryptocurrencies moving closer to mainstream acceptance.
As the Dogecoin community continues to rally behind the idea of Dogecoin’s integration on X, the broader crypto community watches with keen interest to see how this unique partnership unfolds.
