“You can’t use it (Bitcoin) effectively for most things,” he said, due to the very high transaction cost. And you cannot even scale that to a higher volume, Elon added

Elon also noted that if the community wants to see an increase in the price of Dogecoin then there is a huge need to hold the Dogecoin asset instead to spend it.

Besides these things, Elon said that if the price of Dogecoin will face a huge downfall then it will be better to use Dogecoin in terms of payment purposes. So Elon Musk sees Dogecoin as a profitable option in both the upside and down in the value of Dogecoin.

However, the support of Elon Musk for Dogecoin is appreciable but many crypto users criticized Elon on Twitter. Many crypto traders said that Elon did very wrong with the decision to suspend the Bitcoin payments option from Tesla.
