Elon Musk announced the launch of a new fully electronic U.S. retirement system designed to replace the outdated paper-based model, which often undercounts retirement pay. He noted that the pilot version of the platform is already live and thanked the Dogecoin team and Joe Gebbia — a key figure in DOGE — for bringing it to life.
More on the Launch of the New Fully Electronic U.S. Retirement System
Despite Elon Musk’s fragmented public statements and his upcoming departure from DOGE and its central leadership, the work continues — and the department remains focused on increasing the efficiency of U.S. government institutions. In particular, the U.S. retirement system i undergoing transitioning from paper-based processing to a fully electronic model, providing instant retirement payouts and accurate calculations, free from manual errors.
According to Elon Musk, the project is being implemented with the participation of the DOGE team and Joe Gebbia — co-founder of Airbnb, board member at Tesla, and a key figure in DOGE — whom he specifically thanked for their involvement and execution. The system is already active, and for the first time in U.S. history, 25 people are now retiring fully online as part of the pilot phase.
“The paper-based government retirement system currently in place takes up to 8 months to process and often undercounts retirement pay. The new, fully electronic system being tested now is instant and accurate, thanks to @jgebbia and the @DOGE team.”
Joe Gebbia responded positively, sharing his own comment:
“For the first time in US Gov history, 25 people are retiring online only, to inform scaling to everyone. This is a big win for retirees to get their full check faster, and testament to how quickly @USOPM is working towards the President’s software modernization Exec Order.”
Conclusion
As political and economic uncertainty continues to grow, and with U.S. debt servicing challenges looming – gains in operational efficiency, budget resilience, and revenue collection come at a critical time for the nation.
Similarly, while Bitcoin may still be volatile — which, for some trading strategies, is actually a notable advantage — it nonetheless seems to be becoming a shelter for many institutional investors and even entire nations.
