In reality, it was found that the keywords Bitcoin and Dogecoin were already existing as part of the code behind the website.  In January 2023, the automaker&#8217;s website had added the crypto payments feature on its page and remained since, although it did not materialize at the time.  However, this gives hope that the Tesla Bitcoin and Tesla Dogecoin payment facility is just around the corner.<\/p>\n<p>It is common knowledge that Elon Musk is closely associated with the Dogecoin community, thanks to his tweet mentions of the memecoin.  Hence, it could most likely be a given that Tesla and Twitter will integrate <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/price\/dogecoin\/\">Dogecoin<\/a> along with bitcoin in the first batch of cryptocurrencies when they launch.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<p>Also Read: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/ripple-community-mocks-republican-for-calling-xrp-a-security-analyst-predicts-re-entry-level\"><strong>Community Mocks Republican For Calling XRP A Security;  Analyst Predicts Re-Entry Level<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<p>          <!-- \n\n<div class=\"m-on pl-2 pr-2\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"row\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"col-6 pr-2\">\n         \n\n<div class=\"Borderboxies_2 mb-3  fullmobx\">\n             \n            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/top-7-crypto-marketing-firms-of-the-year\/?utm_source=abovesidebartabnews&utm_medium=organicarticle\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"SponserdyWebimg_2\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/15175104\/top_crypto_marketing_agencies.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" ><\/noscript><\/div>\n\n\n                \n\n<div class=\"Sponserdtent_2 mt-2\">Top Crypto Marketing Firms \/ Agencies 2023; Here\u2019s Best Picks [Updated]\n <\/div>\n\n\n            <\/a>\n          \n            <\/div>\n\n\n            <\/div>\n\n\n                  \n\n<div class=\"col-6 pl-2\">\n                 \n\n<div class=\"Borderboxies_2 mb-3  fullmobx\">\n             \n            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/top-10-web-3-games-to-explore-in-2023-here-list\/?utm_source=priceanalysisbar&utm_medium=organicarticle\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"SponserdyWebimg_2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"%20viewBox='0%200%20834%20833'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/23134356\/jpg_20221223_134223_0000.jpg\" ><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/23134356\/jpg_20221223_134223_0000.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" ><\/noscript><\/div>\n\n\n                \n\n<div class=\"Sponserdtent_2 mt-2\">Top 10 Web3 Games To Explore In 2023; Here List\n <\/div>\n\n\n            <\/a>\n          \n            <\/div>\n\n\n            <\/div>\n\n\n                <\/div>\n\n\n        <\/div>\n\n                    --><\/p>\n<div class=\"TabDicA\">\n<div class=\"TBAcon \">\n<div class=\"authorFlip tabcS\" id=\"TabA154810\">\n<div class=\"authorBox\">\n<div class=\"author_Name\">\n<!--\n                                      \n\n<div class=\"getAuthoname\">\n                                          \n                                                                                 \n                                       <\/div>\n\n \n--><\/p>\n<p>Anvesh reports major crypto updates around regulation, lawsuits and trading trends.
