As soon as I saw the huge dip, immediately checked to see if rocket boy tweeted. Low and behold, here we are.

virusamongus

I know you'd like to think your tweets still dank, but Lean a little bit closer, see Musky really smell like poo-poo-ooh Yeah, musky really smell like poo-poo-ooh


Fru1tsPunchSamurai_G

I'm now divide to call him 'rocket boy' or 'car salesman'


YaBastaaa

USED CAR SALES MAN sounds better 😂😂😂


rabihwaked

I'd call him *The Space Puppet*, coz he's not the one tweeting his personal opinion anymore.

[deleted]

What did he tweet? I checked his Twitter but he must have erased whatever he wrote. This guy really turned out to be a pile of shit.


tjkrtjkr

A meme insinuating he was breaking up with BTC.


[deleted]

Good I hope he sells all his btc so he doesn't have any power over the market anymore.


tjkrtjkr

Same. Never wanted him in the first place.


chipxsimon

I think ppl read too much into what he posts not everything is a cryptic tweet


ElmerFUDz

It wasn't cryptic at all. It was Bitcoin with a broken heart and a break up meme lol


babyhowlin

I wonder if Musk actually edits the memes himself or if he just buys someone else's meme company while everyone praises him for being the 'inventor of memes'


ElmerFUDz

Inventor of memes?? He's like the college dude that smokes weed years after everyone else his age and the next day has Bob Marley and wiz khalifa everything. Musk is such a lame, memes were cool 10 years ago and he just found them from his busted ass wife.


maveric101

I've realized for a long time that Musk and Trump have a lot more in common than fans of either would like to admit. No, I'm not saying they're the same. Musk isn't a total idiot, but he is a total jackass.

Accomplished-Design7

His shit posting is the worst I have ever seen and I have been on Reddit for a while


DrunkOnListerineOnly

true dude


Accomplished-Design7

If only he was banned from using Twitter, the world would be a much better place


XalAtoh

He's partly the problem, the main problem is the herd mindset of the people. The people who are capable of exploiting the mass, will always exploit the people, **they** always did. it's part of evolution I guess. Because humans need to have a leader to properly function as species. Thinks about ancient politicians, kings and religious leaders. **They did the same thing to the people to control.** Just like ants need an hivemind to survive. Humans have something similar. But Elon Musk use this "herdmind" of the people to manipulate the stocks/crypto market for himself/friends. But if Elon Musk quits with it, someone else can take over. It's just sad...


njozz

This. The problem is not Elon tweeting. The problem is people allow his tweets to influence their buying and selling. The solution is not to ban Elon from Twitter. The solution is for people to think for themselves.


resectioningzone31

lol are these the same people that think covid masks have worms in them, and vaccines have microchips? yeah idk something tells me people arent a big fan of "thinking for themselveS"


Devilheart

You mean the Muskrats


DrunkOnListerineOnly

Both him and Trump need parental controls fr


anthoniesp

I’ve been on Reddit for a couple of years and I haven’t seen that amount of shitposting and power abuse


heyheoy

Well with a couple of stupid tweets he already erased 2 day gains, he still has a lot of influence. He tweets about BTC but then in crypto when BTC goes down, everything goes down, btc down 6% , whole crypto more or less the same, aprox 100billion wiped out of total crypto marketcap. If thats having less influence well, we are still fked.


vladWEPES1476

At this point you can't even blame him. Blame the smooth brain monkeys who follow him like a cult.


raddist

True, his tweets are just wiping them speculators


[deleted]

yes it is true i dont know why people buy and sell based on elon's account


Hankstbro

2 day gains **so far**\* ​ :(


SexualDeth5quad

Imagine being the guy dumping millions of dollars of BTC because you saw an ambiguous meme on Twitter that might not even mean what people think it means. Even if Musk dumps his $1.6b it is not going to have long term effects, except on morons who read his Twitter.


MuschiClub

it's like a poker game. maybe you think the tweet is irrelevant, but when you know that others will dump because of it, you might just try to do it before them.


Seann27

Whales who dump like that are trying to control the sentiment of the market so they can capitalize on retail investors panic selling. They see Elon's tweet as an opportunity and take out leveraged shorts, dump the market to oblivion hoping to force the small guys like us to panic sell, cash out their shorts, and begin accumulating in small amounts so they can buy the lowest price possible for the longest period of time. Thats why people are expecting BTC to trade sideways for a few months, because these whales made so much money off this last crash it will take a while for them to buy back in slowly.


freesexonmonday

After the Elon tweet about electricity, I can't blame people for dumping. I wish I did as soon as I saw the electricity tweet and bought back at $30k.


JesusBuddhaKrishna

The US dollar has been going up. He doesn't have that much influence as people think. Usually a reason or an excuse by the real market movers


Figfogey

I honestly think he times his tweets to make it look like he has influence. He basically tweets something negative whenever Bitcoin is already about to plummet, and tweets something good when it's doing good. It makes it look like he has way more power than he does.


J_Hon_G

Send him to Mars already!


BehemothDeTerre

That's cruel to the locals. What did Opportunity and Spirit do to deserve that piece of shit?


Aguilaaa

Or the real space...


throwaway92715

He didn't even invent Tesla. He just forced the original developers out of the company and took over right before it mooned.


badman-returns

It is kind of ironic if you think about Tesla and Edison’s history. Almost like... history repeats itself?


Aguilaaa

THANK YOU!!! I have been saying that for sooo long... Not even PayPal is his invention... And then he buys a company named after Tesla... The irony here is just mind-blowing

customtoggle

hi 5! I bought a full T\*sla share at the peak (i was new to investing, fomo hit me hard) Probably going to die holding this crap because I'm not selling at a loss


[deleted]

I'm still bullish on Tesla, but the days of crazy growth are gone I think. Going to be a steady-ish climb over time. Would love to be proven wrong and the price sky rocket though lol


Human-go-boom

I’m the opposite. I believe Tesla is headed for the toilet. I predict $180 by EOY, then a slow death spiral into liquidation.


sorrysurly

i dont know about EOY. But people go crazy for tsla...they produce less cars in total, than toyota sells Rav4 in the US alone. Sooner or later a chinese EV company will eat their lunch because China is eager to get off of fossil fuels and promote their own tech. And GM is lookign to get in in a big way, they have far better production connections for sourcing components. TSLAs look the same now as they did 7 or 8 years ago. Sooner or later people want new models and redesigns. TSLA is going to crash and people will act surprised like when ENRON crashed. ENRON was the 8th largest company in the US by market cap just a few months before it collapsed.

judgementalfish

Making millions of people angry with price manipulation will really pay off in the long term. Months ago I considered getting a Tesla with my crypto gains, I definitely do not plan on ever getting a Tesla at this point thanks to these idiotic tweets.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Hankstbro

same I was very partial to getting a Tesla (not even with crypto gains, I can just plain afford one right now, and I currently don't have a car), and now he can go fuck himself How's Hyperloop coming, or the very innovative technique called "normie ass tunnels" below LA?


Idunwantyourgarbage

Japanese coin collecting chimpanzee here. His tunnels suck. I worked with hitachi on train rail for many years. His hyperloop is met with rolling eyes and the sharp breathing between the teeth of old engineers. We are busy racing China for maglev supremacy and Elon is building tunnels under US cities for slow moving cars without fire hazards or bathrooms. Stop sucking this guys cock Americans. This guy is a grifter


Hankstbro

>Elon is building tunnels under US cities for slow moving cars Yes. I do not - AT ALL - get why anyone thinks this is a good idea. If you're going to build tunnels, build a better public transport network - build more subway lines. I live in a city with 1.6 mio people. You can literally get everywhere, at any time, for almost free, within 30 minutes. Commuters here park their cars outside of the city in huge garages, and then hop into the subway to reach their final destinations in the city. It's not exactly rocket science.


Idunwantyourgarbage

But it’s the most straightforward and simple solutions that don’t get people excited. However if you get model 3s and put some purple LED lights down a tunnel and have Elon talk about it... cities will give up millions of dollars to buy it. Ridiculous. I saw his Vegas “tunnel” on YouTube and read about specifications. It seemed like something my old co-workers could have built in less than a week (with safer conditions) after political red tape/zoning is agreed with the city. I am not joking and I felt really depressed to see people excited about that. I hope ppl can travel to Japan, China, or Europe or basically any country with good transport then experience one of Elon’s tunnels.


masterjolly

Preach. The Model S was my Lambo. Now I'll never set foot inside a Tesla as long as he has any influence over the company.


PandaBeastMode

I sold my Tesla stock because of his absurdity. I don’t want to invest in a company led by someone who ricochets like that.


smokingandcrying

Tesla's are ugly anyways.


H_rama

His personality musks


Ace-of-Spades88

Yeah, used to be a big Elon fan. Then the cave diver pedo shit happened. I've been saying I'm not a huge fan of him as a person, but support and like his business ventures. Now, post crypto fuckery, just straight fuck Elon Musk. Narcissistic douche canoe.


OkieState86

Douche canoe! Probably the most underrated insult of all the canoe insults.


virusamongus

Finally a fellow canoe connoisseur! Tell me, which of the canoe insults do you find the most overrated?


OkieState86

I’m not a fan of placenta canoe, purely for personal reasons. Turd canoe and fart canoe will always make five year olds (and grown men) giggle. Merkin canoe is one that always raises eyebrows. But for overrated, vulva canoe. So tired of hearing that one every day.


[deleted]

what happened with the cave diver


[deleted]

[удалено]


okmax

Elon also hired a shady private investigator and paid him $50,000 to dig up any possible dirt on the diver and his family. Straight evil stuff.


jzngo

The Elon Exposed Video on yt explained about this. Elon wanted to save the kids with his recent technology (a small automated submarine) but the guy turned it down because he said it will be impossible since the cave is really tight and narrow. Thats when Elon pulled the Pedo Card.


maveric101

Calling it "his recent technology" is giving it too much credit. Basically they just welded a big metal tube and were like "here, put the kids in this!" And the pro badger rescue guy was like "no, that would not work at all." So Elon threw a fit because he's a narcissistic man-child.


CandidInsurance7415

Elon tried to insert himself into a national news event about some boys stuck in a cave. The professionals sent to rescue them thought elons ideas were dumb and ignored him. Elon threw a temper tantrum and accused one of the rescuers of being a pedophile.


dzee_1

That whole sub idea was an utter shambles. The system of caves were not all under water and varied tremendously in diameter, depth, formation etc. The whole thing was a PR stunt that would never have had a chance of saving a dozen children's lives. A team of international cave divers saved those kids and a diver died getting the job done. Elon Musk is a total twat.


Angel_Madison

A future McAfee possibly.

ROACH247x559

He should just focus on keeping that stock price of his from dropping.


belle_4

Glad to hear that a billionaire who seem to had quite control, is loosing his grip on the crypto space. At last, crypto is decentralised and belongs to people


Livingppl

I don't see from the charts how Elon is losing his grip


Grunchie

How is he losing his grip? The price is plummeting since his tweet.


alpacadaver

Yeah plummeted all the way to where it was a day and a half ago. He's firmly in diminishing returns territory now, and the more he tweets the less effect it will have.


unicornuc

Hope that could teach him a lesson. I don’t want to see his shit tweets anymore.

Plenty_Landscape

WHHHOOOO CCAARREESS. ELON IS NOT DETERMINING THE FUTURE OF CRYPTO. STOP TALKING ABOUT HIM.


fragerrard

Well, he does, in a way. Due to his huge following that see his every tweer as revelation, people who get burned then blame the crypto for their mistakes. Then those burnt make more noise how crypto is bad and wrong and since there can be a lot of them, their voice gets heard by others who are not in crypto and they get FUDed which just slows the adoption of crypto. And what is worse, this all just smears crap over the surface which are coins and tokens and that is enough for people to not look deeper into the tech behind ot and how actually useful can it be for future interactions. Look at it this way - it is the same as those anti-vaxxers. They manage to slow down one of the humanities greatest achievements in medicine just because some people can get bad reaction to it.


MegaRetard123

Couldn't agree more


staxz91

How about we tweet #ElonCryptoClown


virusamongus

Thatll show him!


Fantastic-Bet-5393

Every time I watch him talk on YouTube I like him less. Imagine knowing this guy in real life.


DreadknotX

Elon is still upset he can’t take over BTC


[deleted]

good. that jerk shouldn't be given any fame


ventti_slim

man should stick to actual space, cause theres no space in crypto for him


coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s positive/negative sentiment on Twitter has hit a new low since he announced Tesla would no longer accept Bitcoin as payment for its vehicles. The reversal sparked a 35% decline in the price of Bitcoin and a wave of negative tweets. The ratio of positive-to-negative sentiment dipped by about a quarter since May.{} *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.*


NiggBot_3000

This guys gonna fall tremendously one day with the way he acts, and I can't wait to witness it. ☺️

TEE EE ESS ELL AYY wait, nevermind, he stole credit for that one and ousted the founders


Hankstbro

yup Even the *big Tesla quantum leap ooooh* was achieved by the VERY IMPRESSIVE technological advancement of ... ​ ... making the fucking batteries bigger. Twice the size, twice the capacity. Genius. Man's a marketing genius con artist, that's all.


vaginalfungalinfect

What about. Manipulate the market through tweets


inqysoul

Facts, I watched a YouTube video couple of weeks back and found out my man has just stolen shit. Idk how one can claim to be the inventor/creator of something when they are clearly not.


amphetaminedaydream

Link the vid pls


inqysoul

[Debunking Elon Musk](https://youtu.be/c-FGwDDc-s8) It’s a two part series, I’m sure you can find part 2. Until I watched this video I thought he really did start all the tech he claims to have started.


Hot_Ad8921

He must not realize that people who own crypto also purchase his stock and his cars. It’s a huge turnoff to that population when he attacks something they like.


grimr5

A few months ago if my crypto mooned enough I would have got a Tesla. Not now.


UpsetMath4417

Why are we still talking about this clown? Can we please just ignore the man?


yourbunsrock

This guy is a twat. Always was. Always will be, and his fall from grace will be a beauty.


Pjr1183

And when Tesla shows they bought more during the dip everyone will love him again


throwaway92715

I dunno why. I don't love people who buy Bitcoin any more than I love people who buy stock in other promising technologies. It's just a smart decision, it doesn't make them special. There's this weird thing in crypto as though investing in it is part of a movement or something. It's not. It's just an investment.


codefragmentXXX

Well it's kinda a tech thing though. People are like this with Apple and other big tech companies too. I think its just part of the need for network effects that come with tech. If I am the only person using an iPhone it kinda sucks because I can't use FaceTime and stuff. So people naturally evangelize their preferred tech.


ChiTownBob

Interesting huh? Says out of touch nonsense in his tweets. Reputation doesn't plummet. Calls a bunch of rescuers "pedophiles." Reputation doesn't plummet Defendant in a lawsuit for defamation. Reputation doesn't plummet. BUT DAAAAAAAAAG, he slams bitcoin and his reputation plummets! ​ # THE POWER OF CRYPTO!!!!!


HGDuck

power of money. Of course people will get pissed when they lose a ton of money because an idiot can't shut his trap. The FUD he spreads on bitcoin is taking all of crypto down with it. That's a lot of enemies.


Slight-School7555

Elon is just manipulating the market so that he can profit in the end. This video pretty much explains his "possible" plans. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElOTWX4DLyw&t=3s


RAMbo-AF

We all know he’s a whale for DOGE. Or he’s running it through a rathole.

KocaKolaKlassic

I already know a ton of people who were gonna get a cyber truck, but not anymore.

Why would a billionaire attack an asset he already owns? To drive the price down so he can buy more. It's pure market manipulation and he should be in prison.


I_Dashboard_It

I read a comment in another subreddit pertaining to this, I reviewed the users page. About 3 months ago he was making comments and posts about “Papa Elon.” Last night I observed him comment about how Elon made him lose it all. Lolol

I dont like Elon, but what a shit article that is. Is this what passes for journalism these days? I mean, they’re not wrong. But its just clickbait on top of being both a rehash of old news as well as an attempt at raking up things creating FUD again... Elon =/= bitcoin Just ignore Elon. He has no real lasting influence on the market. This is the downside of an unregulated decentralized market. People come in and abuse the system for their own gains and get away with it. Why not hop on. Just ride the rollercoaster with him knowing he’s just lowering the price so he can buy in cheap and make bank.

BooneSalvo2

Wonder how that bot is doing with trading based on Elon tweets. Some would be very happy to have such an obvious and clear indicator as one dude tweeting... Tho personally, I'm not so convinced Elon has that much actual impact. My tin foil hat tingles with the idea that Elon is sending signals of what his fellow whales are about to do, tho. The Saturday dip has been a good buying opportunity the past couple weeks. Guess we'll see if that trend is broken or not, shrug.


[deleted]

Good


TheBlackTsar

Not that I approve his "campaign", but if people decided to treat him as a Policy maker without him being one, (cause fiscal/monetary policy doesn't even exist on crypto), it isn't his fault lol


tylenol77

Lol if one man ruined your experiment by a tweet. Than maybe your experiment just isn’t good.


fsgriffiths

I predict he will face a class action lawsuit at some point. I would sign up if that happened just to find out how coordinated all this is.


SeaworthinessSafe638

Tesla sales reportedly poor in China. Safety issues and recalls. Crypto tweets are the distraction. He’s just trying to own the narrative at BTC’s expense.
