What does anyone think about the latest tweet from Elon Musk in what looked like taking a swipe at Bitcoin? ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FYU4iVwj.png&t=663&c=KIWbB6YUYOhsng) Actually, TBC reminded me of The Billion Coin; a scam coin that never came into existence since 2017 it was rumoured to be. Its community sadly believe till date that it will one day become a real use case coin. They're still in denial that it's a scam.

Swipe? Do you not know that Elon owns The Boring Company?

What I understood so far: - let's crash the price so I can buy MOAR! - it is boring to not see $100k yet. I have to decrypt his next tweet Both do mining & use blocks & chains

Look, Elon likes to stir shit up, sometimes without any agenda, sometimes with something in mind. Maybe he has some plans on implementing bitcoin in all of his ventures and not just investing, or he is just posting that the money he made from the investment will finance his project in some capacity (altho the first one is more likely). We can't really be sure about any of it until he releases an official statement or plans, but one thing we can be sure of is that there is no bad publicity, it all works in favor of BTC.

Nah, Elon is just trolling every bitcoiner, ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) He may have meant, TBC (The Best Crypto). So I don't consider it a swipe, maybe he just wanted BTC to be in the discussion again and push the price to $60k and above.

I don't agree with your opinion about Musk taking a swipe at BTC since the tweet itself is ambiguous and we all know that is a staunch supporter of cryptocurrencies in general. Never heard of Billion Coin before. As you mentioned, it is probably just one of the many useless altcoins in th cryptocurrency market. Look, Elon likes to stir shit up, sometimes without any agenda, sometimes with something in mind. Maybe he has some plans on implementing bitcoin in all of his ventures and not just investing, or he is just posting that the money he made from the investment will finance his project in some capacity (altho the first one is more likely).
I doubt that since he lost around $15 billion recently just because of a tweet related to BTC and is probably more focused on duking it out with Bezos currently.

While still fuel it, when it's an obvious attention post, the reason for Mr musk making these post can be personal to him, but is Mr musk now the dictator of bitcoin, I think we can see his bitcoin post and pass along, I think he knows how attentive people are to his post and how like a wave it would be carried. I wasn't into bitcoin because of Elon musk, let him have his space and opinion without any debate about it.

For sure that is not all about bitcoin because bitcoin isn't a company.
That's the power of Elon Musk, he is very influential and gained tweet that a huge number of followers retweeting his tweet. I guess that his own company, he becomes bored because there are no investors in my perception.
As I understand, that is not against bitcoin that he meant and I guess there's nothing to worried about, despite, that's another awareness to the people.

Yes, he was but it feels it is too much. A single tweet that had to make hypes is gonna be worrying, how about if Elon Musk tweet about the dumps and people will follow? He gains a lot of supporters and followers, huge enough to make a twist on the trend and I can't imagine if his new tweet about TBC will make this scam coin wake up. Maybe, investors will also think about their actions in regards to what Elon Musk did and not just because he can be trusted.

Well, these are only guesses of the author, in the tweet itself nothing is said about this. There are so many abbreviations in the world that coincidences are normal, the most important thing is to decipher for people who do not know.

Actually, TBC reminded me of The Billion Coin; a scam coin that never came into existence since 2017 it was rumoured to be. Its community sadly believe till date that it will one day become a real use case coin. They're still in denial that it's a scam.
As everytime this guy do make out some new tweets then my feeling of having that kind of getting pissed is gradually coming out and treating him to be an another McAfee even though he's different since he's not a shiller but it turns out that things that he do keep saying or do make tweets becoming non-sense into my part. This is a free market though but having those kind of sentiments turns out to be negative towards Bitcoin and also if he's that fully aware on what TBC is then he would really be changing up those words. TBC(The billion coin) as i remembered is never been a crypto.It doesnt have a blockchain and it havent been able to hit up those known platforms or exchangers and been traded and make out some considerable volume but instead they do have their own exchanger which is totally shit. Talking about anagram? BTC could be TBC,CBT,BCT,TCB etc. and doesnt really make sense on talking about coincidence because lots are trying to mimic out bitcoin since from the start.

Swipe? Do you not know that Elon owns The Boring Company? I think Elon's tweet here is positive. Not trolling or anything. Because The Boring Company is owned by him. So don't get too serious here. He maybe just want to advertise also his company in this simple tweet and giving a connection to BTC. Nothing more. And right now, he knows that his tweets have some impact in the crypto community. Just taking advantage of his influence in the market to have gentle promotion of his own company.

Never really paid too much attention to The Billion Coin. what I am most compelled is the fact that this could be a hint at who the real creator of bitcoin is, and it could be him. I'm not really bought in the search for the real Satoshi Nakamoto, but bit by bit ever since he bought $1.9 billion worth of bitcoins does he drop crumbs of his relation to it, then again I could also just be overthinking, but wouldn't it be cool if he really is Satoshi? For sure that is not all about bitcoin because bitcoin isn't a company.
That's the power of Elon Musk, he is very influential and gained tweet that a huge number of followers retweeting his tweet. I guess that his own company, he becomes bored because there are no investors in my perception.

The Boring Company, for those who do not know yet, is a construction materials company owned by none other than Elon Musk. This tweet of his could be another bitcoin shill, or it could also be a hint regarding his relation to Satoshi Nakamoto.

I agree that this is not a swipe at BTC, just the same bored Elon Musk trying to spice up things again because bitcoin is like trading sideways from $55k-$57k. He knows his sphere of influence and a simply dabs here in there won't hurt, but could potentially gain some newbies on crypto.

right, I also see this is just a promotional action he did... Boring Company is a company that was founded a long time, we think that the company was founded for fun but it is not so. I wonder if his tweet will have an impact on the Bitcoin price again!

Elon is just acting like a normal person, making tweets. There's probably nothing special about this tweet. But if we treat Elon as a sort of a guru, prophet, demi-god, and so on, which he is obviously not, then we will give too much meaning in everything that he does. He might fart one day, announce it on Twitter, and people would begin to interpret it as some sort of a symbol or sign or a hint of something about to happen. I wonder if his tweet will have an impact on the Bitcoin price again!
And how would we know that this particular tweet has affected the price of Bitcoin? If the price falls, is it due to Elon's tweet? If it rises, does it mean the tweet has something to do with it? More often than not, it's just a matter of subjective interpretation.

What Elon writes may not have a proper meaning or could be just a fun post, but it would have immense effect on his followers. Elon Musk is probably the richest person in the world in near future. Not only is he rich, he's a role model for millions of people. People even associate him with being satoshi, superhuman, an alien and many more respectable and conspirator ideas. With Elon Musk's open support, bitcoin has reached a new and higher stable price range.

So I don't consider it a swipe, maybe he just wanted BTC to be in the discussion again and push the price to $60k and above. The Boring Company is one of his many companies that is focused on creating tunnels for logistics and such, why would he make a mistake like that? If he wants to push the price then we should be ready to go for long because this tweets that involve bitcoin is going to pump the prices.
