Elon Musk’s X Money is one step closer to a wider rollout — but one question still dominates crypto conversations: will X accept Dogecoin (DOGE) payments?
Timeline and expectations
- In March, Musk said X Money would enter “early public access” in April 2026. On June 4 he announced the feature would soon be available to a larger audience.
- That expectation was amplified on April 14 when X’s head of product, Nikita Bier, tweeted that “crypto has had a rough year” and suggested the team “should launch something to fix it,” fueling speculation that X Money would include crypto payments.
Why Dogecoin?
- Dogecoin fans have been particularly optimistic because of Musk’s well-known affinity for the memecoin. Musk has already enabled DOGE payments for Tesla and SpaceX merchandise, so many users expect a similar integration on X.
Still no crypto payments — yet
- Weeks after the early-access promise, X has not launched any cryptocurrency services. It remains unclear whether X Money will include crypto payments at launch or if Dogecoin will be specifically supported.
- Supporters point to Musk’s past DOGE decisions as evidence that it’s likely, but there are clear caveats: DOGE is among the most volatile assets in markets since its 2013 debut, with frequent, abrupt price swings that complicate its use as a stable payment medium.
What’s next
- Observers say technical, regulatory and volatility-related challenges could delay or limit any crypto-enabled features. Dogecoin integration remains plausible, but not guaranteed.
- X Money users and DOGE holders are waiting for official confirmation — we may learn more in the coming weeks as X expands access and outlines the product’s capabilities.
