The source code of the Tesla payment page shows Bitcoin, but it cannot be confirmed whether it is a new addition
ChainCatcher news, according to Tesla's official website, the source code of its payment page contains the word "bitcoin." The last update of this code source file was on July 11, but this does not mean that the "bitcoin" related code was added during the update on July 11, nor can it prove whether the related code was deleted after the support was canceled in May 2021. In addition, Tesla had previously included "doge" related terms in the source code of the payment page, but ultimately only supported it for purchasing merchandise from the store. Therefore, whether to accept Bitcoin payments should also depend on relevant announcements and the appearance of related displays on the front end.
Previously, ChainCatcher reported that Tesla announced support for Bitcoin payments for car purchases on March 24, 2021, and then stated on May 13 of the same year that it would cancel support for this payment method.
