Uhhhhhh, Can't Spend Your Dogecoins At McDonald's? You Can Spend Them Here

On Sunday, McDonald’s Corporation (NYSE:MCD) sent a tweet suggesting “something is coming” featuring a photo of what looked to be a blurred image of an M-ATV style vehicle, and an even blurrier image of what looks like the Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) logo.

Th news sent Dogecoin up nearly 8% to $0.1569, leading investors to believe in a potential partnership with McDonald's where the fast-food company would accept Dogecoin as payment. However, when the secretive ad aired during the Super Bowl, it left Dogecoin fans disappointed, as it did not feature the Shiba-Inu at all.
