BTC and DOGE sent to Moon, Dogecoin’s price sinks

The world’s first private American lander, Peregrine, launched toward the Moon with a Dogecoin (DOGE) wallet on board.

On Jan. 8, the Peregrine Peregrine Mission One mission of the space company Astrobotic launched with a dual crypto load.

Astrobotic is carrying out the rocket project to send cargo to the Moon. In addition to the crypto wallet with DOGE, one Bitcoin coin (BTC) on a physical medium and a metal plate engraved with the contents of the first (Genesis) block of Bitcoin will also be sent to the Earth’s satellite.

As part of the Commercial Lunar Payload Service program, it will deliver the first-ever private lander to the Moon. The 61.6-meter Vulcan Centaur rocket of the private space company United Launch Alliance (ULA) successfully launched from Cape Canaveral in Florida. The station is expected to land on the Moon and conduct several studies. The descent to the lunar surface is scheduled for Feb. 23.

The token’s price practically did not react to the news, falling 3.69% over the past 24 hours. Currently, DOGE is trading at $0.07793 and has a capitalization of $11.1 billion.

The price of BTC has also remained stable over the past 24 hours, falling only 0.3% to $43,945 at the time of writing, according to CoinMarketCap.

In addition to Astrobotic, another DOGE launch to the Moon is planned soon. DOGE-1 will take off on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. DOGE-1 is being developed by Geometric Energy, which announced the project in May 2021. The launch of DOGE-1 was first reported by SpaceX founder Elon Musk in 2021. However, the mission was repeatedly postponed. The launch is now scheduled for January 2024.
