Dogecoin doesn't really have a CEO but if they did, it would be Elon Musk...

Elon Musk was a part of something done today that was previously never done in the history of mankind.

Elon's company SpaceX, a private company, sent a manned spacecraft into orbit for the first time ever.

He has tweeted about dogecoin several times in the past, causing it to spike up significantly a couple of times.

And leading up into the launch today, dogecoin enjoyed some bullish price action over the last several days...

More on the launch...

Elon Musk is mostly known for founding Tesla, the electric car company that has carved out a niche for itself in an extremely competitive automobile industry.

So much so that people just use one word to describe the vehicles... 

"I own a Tesla" has become a status of sorts.

However, he also founded SpaceX some time ago that today did something no other private company has ever done...

From Fox News:

"The launch will be the first time a private company, rather than a national government, sends astronauts into orbit. It will also be the first time that astronauts launch from U.S. soil since the final space shuttle mission in 2011."

Also of note, this was the first time that SpaceX has ever had humans in any of its rocket launches.

Today was a monumental day in our history and there was even a slight tie-in to cryptocurrency, which is never a bad thing.

Keep doing your thing Elon and perhaps some day soon you will own more than that .25 BTC you have been sitting on for the past few years.

Stay informed my friends.
