Court Ruling Dismisses Lawsuit

In a big win for Elon Musk & Tesla, a U.S. District Court has tossed out a class action lawsuit that claimed they played with Dogecoin (DOGE) prices. The case said Musk's tweets and comments messed with the market & tricked investors. But the court found it didn’t hold water.

Judge Alvin Hellerstein pointed out that Musk’s words—like saying he’d be Dogecoin’s CEO or that DOGE would go to the moon—were just “aspirational and puffery.” Basically, the judge said no smart investor should take those comments seriously. So, the lawsuit got dismissed permanently, meaning it can't come back.

This lawsuit kicked off in June 2022, asking for $258 billion in damages. It claimed Musk's hype around Dogecoin, from social media posts to public talks, was misleading and like a pyramid scheme. Even though this case was a big deal, the court cleared Musk & Tesla of these serious charges.

Tesla’s Bringing Back DOGE Payments

Thanks to this good news from the court, Elon Musk now says he’ll start accepting Dogecoin for Tesla stuff again! After seeing some buzz on social media about this idea, Musk told everyone he plans to let people buy Tesla goodies with DOGE—maybe even cars in the future too!

This news has made people excited about Dogecoin again. Because of that excitement, DOGE jumped 20% in price recently. Right now, DOGE is at $0.101 and it went up by 1% in just one day! Plus, trading volume shot up by 21%, showing more traders are getting into it.

Some experts think Dogecoin might keep climbing higher—maybe even by 50% and could hit $1—all thanks to Musk’s support & bringing back DOGE payments at Tesla.

Conclusion

Elon Musk's win in court and Tesla's plans to accept Dogecoin again have fired up the crypto crowd. With DOGE’s price rising fast & more trading happening, things seem bright for this meme coin! With all of this going on plus Musk staying on board—we could see some impressive gains ahead!
