The Venture is Fully Funded by DOGE Tokens
The brainchild of the space technology company Geometric Energy Corporation, the DOGE-1 satellite project was unveiled in May 2021 and is set to be launched aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.
This satellite venture marks the first-ever launch fully funded in DOGE tokens.
Miniature screens on the satellite are poised to display a variety of content, including advertisements, images, and logos, which will be transmitted back to Earth.
The announcement comes after a series of delays that have beset the DOGE-1 mission.
Initially revealed by SpaceX founder Elon Musk in 2021 as part of a rideshare collaboration with Intuitive Machines and NASA, the mission faced repeated postponements from its initially targeted 2022 launch to the now-scheduled January 2024 liftoff.
DOGE-Satellite Will Launch in January 2024
The DOGE-1 satellite’s unique feature of accepting DOGE tokens as payment aligns with the cryptocurrency’s growing acceptance in various spheres. This mission is not only a symbol of innovation but also a testament to the expanding influence of cryptocurrencies beyond traditional financial landscapes.
The DOGE-1 mission is not the only dogecoin-related venture in the pipeline. Another mission is reportedly in the works, indicating a growing interest in leveraging cryptocurrency for space exploration initiatives. The historic launch is scheduled for January 2024.
At the time of writing, the leading meme-based cryptocurrency Dogecoin is trading at $0.084875, an increase of 4% in the last 24 hrs, as per Coingecko data.
