Elon Musk

<p>Yesterday, Elon Musk spoke with Cathie Wood about an X Space and shared his thoughts on bitcoin. The American billionaire, confirming his holding of DOGE and BTC via SpaceX, reassured by stating that he is “<em>open to the idea of using bitcoin on X</em>”.</p>
<h2 id="h-x-twitter-to-be-bitcoin-friendly-soon">X (Twitter) to be bitcoin-friendly soon?</h2>
<p>The question arises: Will X (Twitter) become bitcoin-friendly soon? Elon Musk, on his part, <strong>does not plan <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/crypto-x-ne-verra-jamais-le-jour-dixit-elon-musk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">a crypto linked to X</a></strong>. As for the integration of bitcoin into his “everything app,” the response from the crypto community will not go unnoticed.</p>

<p><em>“Elon Musk stated in an X space with Cathie Wood that he is open to the idea of using Bitcoin on X.”</em></p>
<p>Based on Musk’s interventions during the X space titled “ARK 21Shares Bitcoin (ARKB) Approved”, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/01/36588170/musk-open-to-the-idea-of-using-bitcoin-on-x-reveals-personal-and-spacex-crypto-holdings" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Benzinga</a> pointed out the “usually passive stance” of the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX on cryptocurrencies.</p>
<p>“<em>I don’t spend much time thinking about bitcoin</em>,” he specified. This does not prevent an openness “<em>to the idea of using bitcoin on X</em>”.</p>
<p>In other words, the <strong>holding of bitcoins via SpaceX and many Dogecoins (DOGE) in his personal wallets</strong> does not reflect a special admiration for these digital assets.</p>

<p>Another crucial point: <strong>Elon Musk reportedly refused at one point to discuss the bitcoin topic</strong> during the exchanges, which earned him a trolling by the bitcoin community, currently very popular on social media.</p>

<p>“<em>Here is a video of Bitcoin maximalists trolling Elon Musk for having a different viewpoint on Bitcoin and not wanting to talk about it on Cathie Wood’s space. This behavior is a significant weakness for bitcoin.</em></p>
<p><em>These maximalists consider it a victory to publicly troll influential figures like Elon Musk, rather than engaging in a constructive conversation with someone who has such a significant platform.</em>”</p>
