Elon Musk Seeks 'High-IQ' Staff for DOGE Project: 80-Hour Weeks, No Pay
Elon Musk is back again in the headlines, this time for an unconventional recruitment drive linked to a project that connects to Dogecoin. Mr. Robinson, a billionaire entrepreneur, has declared wanting ‘high-IQ’ employees who are willing to work seven days a week without any wages. Well, to be honest, the announcement is as weird as Musk himself, and that’s why the reaction from the social media and the tech industry has been huge and diverse.
In the latest tweet on X, formally known as Twitter, Musk has heavily suggested that he is developing a somewhat cryptic project directly related to DOGE, the meme coin that the Tesla and SpaceX CEO often promotes. He said the ideal candidates would best be described as intelligent, dedicated, and passionate workers capable of enduring long hours of work.
To date, Musk has not given details of the project, but many believe it may use Dogecoin within one of his business interests, potentially as a payment system for X or as part of the Tesla ecosystem.
Why Dogecoin?
Musk has been supporting Dogecoin for a long time and even actually called it the people’s crypto. He alone commands the market opinion on its token prices, and, by extension, Tesla has been accepting DOGE for merchandise. The latest move is in line with his unconventional style of pushing the cryptocurrency along with drumming up interest in its viable applications.
Community Reactions
Not surprisingly, Musk’s recruitment call has received divergent responses. Many supporters of Dogecoin think this is a wonderful chance to collaborate with the technology tycoon and be part of a promising project. Some of the critics have argued the ability to lure talent with no monetary consideration.
The Bigger Picture
Future attempts by Musk to market DOGE could very well be a part of a broader strategy to spread the use of this kind of product to the normal populace. As such, by associating Dogecoin with other remarkable use cases, Musk may wish to provide the joke-associated coin a more productive standing in the worldwide financial systems.
What’s Next?
For the moment, no additional information has been disclosed to the public; the tech and the crypto world are full of rumours. Whether this initiative succeeds or fizzles out remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: Elon Musk is particularly good at raising people’s interest.
While waiting for fresh information about the secret-ridden DOGE project with Musk at the helm.
