So you think he’s just incredibly stupid? I would believe that but he does have billions of dollars of incentives to do the bidding of the US gov.

I could also see him tweeting GameStop as an anti crypto move. He basically has done nothing but inject fraud and FUD into the “internet investing” space that Bitcoin is a huge part of. How many people sold BTC to buy GME or otherwise shifted money there away from crypto?

*Looks like someone may have bought into the hype at just the wrong time*

Well Musk both created the hype and bought into it at the wrong time, definitely worth taking a look at his motives for making such an aggressively destructive move.

If you’re suggesting I bought in at the wrong time, I didn’t. I would never listen to Elon Musk.
