According to CNN on Wednesday, the Boring Company has made it possible for users to use DOGE to pay for rides in its recently launched Vegas Loop.

The Loop is a transportation system where Tesla car drivers ferry people through a tunnel beneath Las Vegas. The first Loop station, which debuted last Friday, is located outside the Las Vegas Convention Center, but the business intends to build a 29-mile network of tunnels under the city with 50 stations in all.

Although the corporation has not provided a precise date, rides on Loop are presently free. However, charges are ultimately planned. The Vegas Loop’s website states that single rides will cost $1.50, and day passes will cost $2.50.

The choice to offer DOGE as a payment option was made simultaneously as the Boring Company decided to construct a Loop station at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

Even though a $258 billion lawsuit has been filed against Elon Musk and two of his companies, Tesla and SpaceX, he still chose DOGE.  The billionaire was sued by a citizen of the United States for allegedly promoting Dogecoin. According to the lawsuit, Musk is accused of participating in a racketeering plot to support cryptocurrencies.

To his more than 100 million followers, he has already shared a number of Dogecoin memes. The adoption of DOGE as a payment method for rides by The Boring Company is one of several antics. Musk earlier said that he is unconcerned by the current market circumstances and would keep building up his Dogecoin holdings.
