How Elon Musk’s Starlink Could Make Dogecoin Unstoppable

the recently reinstated dogecoin foundation has released a trail map, a term it prefers to the roadmap as it more reflects that dogecoin is a community-driven and open-source project. A stunning item on the document is a proposed project that will see the dogecoin blockchain partner with elon musk’s extra-terrestrial internet service starlink to enable dogecoin transactions in remote locations.

The details of the project which is well named radiodoge (starlink radio nodes for remote locations) should be unlocked as it takes shape according to the dogecoin foundation. 

A collaborative effort between Starlink and Dogecoin (DOGE) would be enormous.

The news gave rise to excitement among the Dogecoins. According to the crypto-currency youtuber and fervent defender dogecoin matt wallace, integration could essentially make dogecoin "unstoppable."

Starlink is the Internet service propelled by SpaceX's constellation of satellites. according to research from earlier this year by arthur gervais, a lecturer at the imperial college london, starlink has the potential to help dogecoin miners scale the transaction throughput of the network by several orders of magnitudes. The research indicates that with fibre-optic Internet service, the estimated round-trip time (RTT) between London and Singapore was 159ms while it was 108ms on Starlink.

"Dogecoin could very well increase its transaction speed by several orders of magnitude if its miners engaged in a relay network dedicated to Starlink," wrote Gervais. "Using Starlink as a network to spread peer-to-peer blockchain data among miners would also help to dramatically accelerate the current blockchain throughput, without damaging its security."

Gervais' proposal may be put to the test with this latest development.

other promising dogecoin developments to look out for in 2022

2021 was a very exciting year for dogecoin. The price of the native token of the network, Doge was up about 3,730%. It is currently trading at $0.16, about 75 per cent lower than its record price of $0.75.

But market participants are excited about the launch of the coin in 2022 for a variety of reasons. several of these reasons are tied to elon musk as the billionaire has been a staunch supporter of the dog-themed coin and is dedicated to seeing it advance. One of them is the spacex falcon x mission that is funded with Doge and expected to launch in May 2022. Another is tesla's plan to accept doge for his merchandise which will likely also be rolled out in the first quarter of 2022. 

In the dogecoin foundation trail map as well, several projects will make upgrades to the already promising dogecoin blockchain infrastructure.
