Starbase is hiring rocket ship builders

Musk has tweeted that SpaceX is going to take "literal Dogecoin" to the "literal moon."

Most likely, this is another method Musk is using to promote Starbase. That is the new name suggested for Boca Chica Village, a small community in Cameron County, Texas, where SpaceX plans to build rocket ships, in addition to SpaceX locations in Texas and California.

Over the past few days, Musk has been actively promoting "Starbase," tweeting that the company is hiring "engineers, technicians, builders & essential support personnel of all kinds" and that the need for them is increasing very fast.

There have been jokes on Twitter recently that Elon Musk plans to put the DOGE or Bitcoin logo on SpaceX rocket ships when they are ready to take off and fly to Mars.

DOGE is the "first love" of Musk as far as crypto is concerned. Bitcoin comes in second, and Elon views it as an inflation hedge.

April Fool's Day

Another thing worth remembering is that today is April Fools' Day. Thus, this tweet could also be a jokehence the word "literal" in the tweet.
