Musk is a big Dogecoin supporter and his last move to buy Twitter After the deal (not finalized yet), many in the DOGE community believe that the meme coin will somehow be used on the social media platform. Some DOGE fans also believe that Bezos, who follows Billy Markus, has plans for Dogecoin, possibly indicating that the Amazon founder is warming up to Dogecoin.
Jeff Bezos vs Elon Musk
Jeff Bezos is currently the second richest person in the world after Tesla CEO Elon Musk. Adding to this discussion, it’s worth remembering that when Musk founded SpaceX, Bezos brought Blue Origin to life, also focusing on spacecraft and spaceflight, both competing for billion-dollar contracts with the US government. Elon Musk, on the other hand, is generally known as a Dogecoin supporter, and as such, he frequently interacts with the tweets of Billy Markus, Shibetoshi Nakamoto’s real name. So it is possible for Bezos to find the founder of Doge through Musk.
