The official Dogecoin account on the X platform has cited Elon Musk’s recent tweet, where he talked about money and the economy in general. The DOGE team has basically agreed with the world’s most influential Dogecoin lover and added a thing about memes.
Money is just a metaphor for value that exists in the minds of those who utilize it. A meme if you will.🙃 https://t.co/ZMBsNXFveb

DOGE team reacts to Musk’s statement
Elon Musk reposted a video excerpt from his interview where he speaks about various subjects, including money and economy. In that video, he referred to money as “just a database for exchange of goods and services.”
He stated that “money doesn’t have power in & of itself,” giving an example that a person stranded on a desert island would find a billion U.S. dollars in their bank account worthless there and would rather have a can of soup.
Today, he commented on that video excerpt and doubled down on his definition of money, saying: “The real economy is not money, it is goods & services.”
The DOGE account supported Musk, adding an expanded definition to the idea of money, saying that it can also be considered a meme — the basis of Dogecoin: “Money is just a metaphor for value that exists in the minds of those who utilize it. A meme if you will.”
