EasyDNS has been accepting Dogecoin as a payment method for some time |
EasyDNS is a Canadian Internet Service Provider that provides DNS and web hosting services and runs an email service called EasyMail. As the first member of ICANN, DoDcoin accepts cryptocurrency as a method of payment.
Continuing the tradition of cryptocurrency pioneers, we are now accepting Dogecoin payments for all services, the Canadian company said in a statement.
The statement said that the service provider was the first to introduce the various cryptocurrencies that are currently booming in the market.
We are the first ICANN member to accept Bitcoin, the first to accept Ethereum, and the first to accept Litecoin, and now we accept Dogecoin.
This is a big gain for the cryptocurrency, which has surged into the market this week.
The company has expressed its indignation towards Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, who is considered a staunch advocate of cryptocurrency.
The statement included Elon Musk's tweet about Dogecoin. Remember who comes first and who does not come, the company said.
Thanks to some encrypted and unencrypted tweets like Musk, Dogecoin's value rose nearly 400% last week.
After the announcement, Canadian internet service provider EasyDNS recently joined the list of companies preparing to use Dogecoin.
Billionaire businessman Mark Cuban was one of the first to do so. It was announced in March that his national basketball team would accept the Dallas Mavericks Dogecoin as tickets and as merchandise.
On April 14th, Cobain provided its Twitter followers with an update, saying, for reference only, sales of Dagcoin via Dogecoin increased 550% in the last month, and we have now sold more than 122,000 products. Dogecoin, we will never sell tokens.
When cryptocurrency provider CoinFlip made digital currencies available for purchase at 1,800 ATMs in 46 states, Dogecoin also became more acceptable.
Dogecoin appears to be following in the footsteps of its successful predecessor Bitcoin, and Musk made headlines this year when his company, Tesla, decided to accept it as a method of payment.
The tech billionaire wrote, "You can now buy Tesla cars with Bitcoin." He added: Tesla uses internal and open source software to directly run Bitcoin nodes.
Musk also said: There will be an option later this year to pay people outside the US with bitcoin.
