Hello, communicators:

Elon Musk is making headlines with online antics once again. This time, it’s his challenge to  McDonald’s to accept Dogecoin, a cryptocurrency originally created as a “joke” in 2013.

He made his proposition via Twitter on Tuesday:

I will eat a happy meal on tv if @McDonalds accepts Dogecoin

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) January 25, 2022

McDonald’s hasn’t responded yet, but other brands were quick to chime in:

only a king knows what da coin do

— Burger King (@BurgerKing) January 25, 2022

Don't do this to yourself Elon… Doge Army doesn't want MickieD's. They want Jack.
