Elon Musk’s birthday and Dogecoin day

The Dogecoin community is celebrating this remarkable event. A member of the Dogecoin team made a reminder that Musk’s date of birth, as the Tesla CEO once jokingly pointed out, has a sort of link with the DOGE day.

The X user @cb_doge (“DogeDesigner”) spread the word about Elon Musk’s birthday today and reminded the DOGE community that the world’s biggest DOGE fan was born “69 days after 4.20.”

The Dogecoin day is celebrated by crypto fans around the world on April 20 (it is also widely know as the “weed day”). This year, the DOGE day arrived right after the global crypto community celebrated another important event – the fourth Bitcoin halving. This year it took place on April 19 by European time and on April 20 by US time.

The crypto X also celebrates Elon Musk’s birthday. His mother Maye Musk also published a celebratory tweet, congratulating her son. Musk himself posted a photo of himself younger with a caption that say “30 years ago.”
