The Dogecoin ($DOGE ) community is buzzing after Billy Markus, the co-founder of Dogecoin, turned down an unexpected job offer from Elon Musk to work in the Government Efficiency Department (D.O.G.E). This surprising interaction has ignited discussions about what could have been if Markus had accepted the role.
Markus Declines, Community Reacts
Markus, known for his lighthearted approach to crypto, had jokingly posted on X that he was unemployed and seeking help. Musk, never one to miss an opportunity, responded with an offer to join D.O.G.E. However, Markus declined, citing his preference for personal time and balance over taking on a new role.
The Dogecoin community had mixed reactions—some urged Markus to reconsider, believing his involvement could benefit the project, while others praised his decision to prioritize personal well-being. One user humorously pointed out that it seemed like fate for Markus to work at D.O.G.E., given the name’s perfect alignment with Dogecoin.
Could a Future Collaboration Happen?
Markus didn’t entirely shut the door on the idea of working with D.O.G.E in the future, leaving room for potential collaboration down the line. Meanwhile, Dogecoin continues to maintain strong market activity, currently trading at $0.33, reflecting a 1.99% gain in the last 24 hours.
Whether Markus’s decision will have any long-term impact on DOGE’s price or adoption remains to be seen. However, one thing is certain—his influence on the Dogecoin community remains as strong as ever.
