Just because Elon pointed out a fatal flaw in BTC energy wasteful PoW design ,
(Which others have been pointing out since 2013.)

all the bitcoiners are having nervous breakdowns.

Because he is one of the world's top Billionaire and a rare genius of our time,
betting against him is like trying to hold back the water at high tide.
Plus he has truth on his side.

Kind of shows, he is going to win, don't you think.  

So yeah, however he bets, I will bet.

[BrewMaster]

many such influential people who might try to manipulate the market again.

i never listened to him but at the same time i was happy that someone as influential had gotten interested in bitcoin specially since he wasn't like most people who only talked about price and the moon. he seemed interested in bitcoin as the decentralized currency.
little did i know that he was a wolf in sheep clothing.

what we need to remember is that next time someone similar comes along to hype things up we should welcome them but also ignore their "hype" and don't give them the attention they may be seeking to later on use to scam people.

[Yogee]

So now that bitcoin is recovering well from it's drop we can expect a bull run again.

Again? Did we enter the bear market momentarily or was it a deep correction during a bullrun?

Just because Elon pointed out a fatal flaw in BTC energy wasteful PoW design ,

It's the emotional traders and speculators that panicked and not the the hodlers. It's not "all".

betting against him is like trying to hold back the water at high tide.

Would you kiss his ass on Doge? He loves that coin too.

Kind of shows, he is going to win, don't you think.  

I don't know about that. I was wondering if he anticipated a drop to $30K before he tweeted about Tesla's diamond hands. Perhaps he got nervous too and had to do something to keep their assets up.

[acener]

I never did listen to him even when he was promoting Doge and others are gaining from it,
I admit that I was tempted but I know how it works and I don't want to be caught up by it or lose my money because of my greed,
I knew that he would just be another clown or manipulator on crypto when he was so eager to promote Dogecoin.

[pawanjain]

Just because Elon pointed out a fatal flaw in BTC energy wasteful PoW design ,
(Which others have been pointing out since 2013.)

How come such a knowledgeable person who can find a fatal flaw in bitcoin's energy consumption not care about electricity wastage and still design electric cars ?

Kind of shows, he is going to win, don't you think.  

He will win by accumulating all the Dogecoins and pumping it's price but you will lose listening to him blindly.

So yeah, however he bets, I will bet.

Then you should vote for the second option.

FYI:
You should edit out the my god, in your survey as that is consider blasphemous to people that have real faith.

Thanks for the suggestion.

So now that bitcoin is recovering well from it's drop we can expect a bull run again.

Uhh, I keep forgetting that. Thanks for the reminder. The bull run was never over 

[LeGaulois]

What do you mean by saying "recovering well"? Because that's not really the case. I just checked the price currently (because I don't check it every day). I wouldn't call this "recovering".
On top of that Bitcoin is still in a 'dangerous' period. In fact, there are many of us who think it will go down more than we have already see.

Why do you guys keep listening E. Musk? He's only good for the low information voters. He's playing with people using his influence on Twitter. If you skip this guy you will remove a lot of useless noise. I don't care if he's a billionaire or poor. It doesn't change my opinion.
He was not the person responsible for the crash. Even if he can have some influence, a person like him can't move Bitcoin's price as much as we've seen.
The good news is we got again a purge of weak hands and people only interested in Bitcoin for the money.

This crash was predicted by many of us, and we didn't need this person. Check out the history you will see it was so predicatble

I can't imagine if a day Jesus Christ comes back and join Twitter to tweet about BTC lol. It will be either the Apocalypse or giant orgies in the streets  

[pinggoki]

I never listened to Elon Musk because he is a dictator in which he is just trying to manipulate the people and even the market of Doge coin and XRP is trying to manipulate. The thing is that certain coins are dumping and pumping just by the tweets of Elon Musk, which is very manipulative person. I believe that DYOR or Do your own research is the best thing to do in order to find a good project wherein you can take profit on it. Please stop following and listening to Elon Musk because he is an indicator when it comes to the market.

[gabbie2010]

I was quite busy with TA and Price Action on my chart I never bother to read Elon Musk tweets once the market is bearish I will wait for potential short trades based on candlestick chart patterns and pull the trigger I don't want to know whether the market bearish sentiment was a result of Elon Musk tweet, if the market turns bullish I will also wait for potential trading setup based on my strategy and take a long trade thus not I am not bother to listen to any news I focus on my charting analysis.

[Reosta_]

DYOR (Do Your Own Research) is the approach that everyone should follow.

I agree with you on this absolutely. People should learn to do their own research. The worst thing to do is just following some influential people's opinions. It absolutely increases the risk you've taken.

[Review Master]

Just thinking of those who was influenced by elon's tweet and bought dogecoin at the pick price because coinbase listing won't have that much effect on dogecoin as compare to other coin listing. So, never ever follow any influencers as they'll come into this market and play around for their own profits. After bull run, most of them will leave this market eventually. So, it'll be great to dyor for anything and don't get into fomo for any situation whether it's bull or bear market. But professional analyst can take advantage of others fomo in the meantime. As always, dyor and don't believe everything from any influencers. 

[virtualdn]

Who's Elon?

Oh you mean Elon the narcissistic egocentric clown?

I never liked him and I think his place is at the circus.

So the answer is I wasn't listening anyway, I like doing my own research. My brain is good enough to replace this clown.

Sour grapes,
sold all of his Doge for BTC, and then BTC dropped $22K. 

Hating on Elon for your trading choices is not healthy.

[terrorJR]

from the beginning I did not refer to the words of this billionaire. but I always follow and see from his posts on twitter and various other media. but that doesn't mean I'm going into the flow he created.
I just follow the info and everything he makes, apart from that I decide for myself what I choose and don't go with the flow of the doge pump and so on.
because I think the pump he made is too risky to follow and I am only a trader with a small capital if I get carried away and enter into greed I will lose in the end

[ziyaaa]

Yes actually I'm done listening to him about cryptocurrencies. But still I can't restrain myself.    Because I really wonder what he is going to say from now on. I wonder if he will continue to manipulate the market after drawing too much attention.

[NotFuzzyWarm]

I could care less about what he and other celebrities think or say about anything. Never followed anyone and see no reason to change my mind on that.

[Anonylz]

'Once bitten twice shy' but unfortunately this does not apply to some people,  they enjoy being led by the nose,  so it will surprise you to see so many haven't learnt their lesson yet, they want to be completely rekt before learning or should I say they would rather learn from the hard way before they get it,

Even Elon will put a disclaimer on his tweet     do at your own risk, lol, whales knows how to make their money.

[DeathAngel]

I think the bitcoin community has herd immunity to Elon & China FUD now. Bitcoin goes on, blocks are mined every 10-20 minutes with or without their blessings. Ignore their noise & focus on the big picture.

[isaac_clarke22]

~

3rd option for me as well, OP.

I am not a celebrity-driven holder. There are others here that are the same that I mentioned as well.
I was just aware of the news about Tesla allowing and pulling out Bitcoin payments as well as Elon Musk hyping the coin, but I did not really care. I am just frustrated that there were many weak holders after Musk said "something" about Bitcoin being bad for the environment.

[Bitcoin-Eco]

Elon is alot of things but DUMB is NOT one of them. If Elon is throwing shade on Bitcoin it's because a shift is coming. Elon made his fortune pinpointing shifts. You can follow the deductions of the richest person ON THIS PLANET or the insight of the 7,637,3367,601 richest person on the planet. There is something to be said about a track record

[Issa56]

Elon musk have really done bad to cryptocurrency he really manipulated the market. He pumped bitcoin which other altcoins also pumped and later dumped bitcoin again now I believe must people will stop listening to what he say because he has done bad to cryptocurrency and we don't want price manipulation again he should just leave our cryptocurrency the way it was before when things where really going fine. I believe now bitcoin price is recovering gradually and I will advise everyone to just hold there coin because I believe it is going to recover and still pump.

[pealr12]

Elon is a famous person so don't expect anything less from people following and listening to him, for someone in his position he must have a lot of connections and inside information and some people think he could be getting some inside info, reason why they pay attention,  can't deny many people made money on dogecoin.

I think the market automatically becomes a judge, most panic sellers, -sold at bear, sold out of fear, sold because of influence- will become Panic buyers -buy at bull, buy out of excitement of the bull, buy become is seems to be invoke- I think an experience of this better explains to newbies to hold and not selling in panic just to follow it up bull market time later.
I have heard many people some in a conversation and every time it's exciting knowledge I get from them, such people -and we have them in the forum- to me may have more knowledge than Elon musk but Elon musk is only popular.

it did result into criticism instead rather that appreciation. We know that he wont really care on what other people do view of him.
The thing he had secured out is his profit. Its true that these fella could really make out some swing which can really affect market.
Asking if im done with Elon? Cant answer since i never tend to believe on the first place.

^ Just because the point is he is making money on BTC, he is an entrepreneur and a businessman, no wonder for him that his mindset is always for the money no matter what we are thinking for him, just because of the money. I know before that Elon Musk is something like manipulating the market it is obvious what he tweeted on social media. For me, always do your own research and don't listen to him, he is nothing on BTC, he even don't have a contribution on it, her triggered a lot of FUD to make BTC dump.

[Hydrogen]

We all know how Elon pumped and then dumped the market through his influential tweets.

I'm still waiting for someone to explain why Elon would dump the market with his company (tesla) holding $1.5 billion in BTC.

Was Elon's master plan to lose around $700 million. Due to holding BTC as it fell?

Almost all of Elon Musk's net worth is tied up in the stock of businesses he own.

He doesn't have the high liquidity and trading volume needed to significant move market prices.

[Twentyonepaylots]

Well really funny how the results of the recent dump is directly inverse to what the poll says at the top. I myself have seen these Elon Musk posts and for a while I am kind of in support to what he says because of course it is bitcoin we are talking about, but as soon as he pulls a fast one I started seeing him in a different light as a crypto influencer, mind you, and not as a person because at the end of the day we cannot deny that what he does in the name of scientific progress is still something to be thankful for.

[lalabotax]

From the beginning, I never listen to what Elon said and what he tweeted.I am really not interested in him because he only uses his popularity and also power to ridicule the crypto market. Moreover when he tweeted about DOGE and BTC. It really gave a very significant influence on DOGE that could jump thousands percentage. And now, listening to him is very risky moreover if we are new in crypto.

[ILuckyGuyI]

He literally destroyed the prices of cryptocurrencies and it was a really big manipulation. So, I'm really angry with him. And please Elon, stop this nonsense. You are just harming the market.

[Vaculin]

I believe I'm done already and I don't have time to listen to him neither.
Maybe it was time to ignore Elon until such a time that he stays away from crypto. because until now, he is pushing himself to be a part of this crypto community but too unfortunate that no one will ever accept/believe his words.

His time in crypto has done fast, he will find himself to the other place where he is very welcome, not in crypto anymore.

So glad that you put the third option there, however I am surprised that no has selected the first option which is they had to learn the hard way, we know there were many people following everything he said and there were even bots that were developed to invest in the market based on his tweets, it seems to me some people are in denial about what happened and this is dangerous as it may happen again once another charismatic institutional investor comes and they follow him blindly once again.

[steampunkz]

Elon is literally trolling or just pumping Dogecoins price in his recent tweet like saying he is working with the Doge Devs that don't even exist in the first place. In the past few months, I'm sure his post, tweets have an effect on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency price, but for now, many people are ignoring him, his reputation in crypto suddenly plummets because of his bitcoin energy attack.

[harapan]

So what is your point? You don't get it, Elon Musk doesn't care much about Bitcoin or even doge coin. He only care about his crypto bag and wants them to get pumped and dumped whenever he wants so he can do whatever pleases him. If you also think there's a shift coming for Bitcoin to get dethroned as number 1 crypto, I would suggest you read up about past flippening events that have happened in the past. I'm sure a lot of people would try to denyit but bitcoin is the most decentralized crypto and it's a really good store of value.

[acroman08]

people shouldn't have listened to him in the first place. the dude is a businessman, almost everything he does has an ulterior motive that would benefit only him or his company. it is just sad that there are people who only relied on what he is saying and base their actions on that. this kind of thing will continue to happen as long as there are people who blindly follow influential people.

[Lorence.xD]

To be honest, his influence can be useful for someone who trades because they can use it to their advantage. I still follow him on Twitter just to see the possible thing that may happen in the market next time but I am no sycophant who follows everything Elon says, I just want to be updated in a possible trend.

[rhomelmabini]

For traders but to be honest if you can't timing the time he barks from his Twitter it could wet some pants for some traders who has position especially on leverage trades. We can't decide who to follow but  I think it's the right decision to make to just unfollow him for some cryptocurrency tweet purposes.

The guy just tweeted this day and the market reacts again but I guess it's substantially dropping and I hope this will be consistent from now on.

[Dave1]

Just remember this, this market works on cycle, if it in the last bull run we have people like John McAfee who try to influence and move the price, they become irrelevant very quick. And I think this is going to happen to Elon, although he still have some fall back because he has Tesla, but for sure, he will be forgotten. He is big enough to be a single crypto influencer. If he is not dumb, then bitcoin investors are smart.

[AniviaBtc]

Since day 1, I didn't believe on Elon Musk although I made his hype or trend profitable for me.

But that doesn't mean that I rely on him, due to my observation and by studying the market, he is really an effective trendmaker in the market.

For those newbies who want their investment profitable, try to understand and explore cryptocurrency by yourself and avoid joining the hype because it might make you lose more money.

[Bitcoin-Eco]

Going to have to stop you there. Elon gives little to nothing about his "crypto bags" . What he has invested in crypto is the equivalent to an ordinary persons change they find in their  couch cushions. Elon is not interested in crypto for an investment . He is the RICHEST human on planet EARTH. He could lose his entire crypto portfolio and laugh about it. He is in crypto for the innovation and freedom it promises. To even insinuate he is mentioning things or "pumping" for profit is laughable.

[swiftbits]

He's interesting and entertaining; maybe we can say that his view on crypto is not that serious.
He's smart with wide connections, and also a businessman. I think he wants to immerse himself in the trend, just like most influencers obsessed with NFT. One tweet from him is, "whoever controls the memes controls the universe." I think he's into the mainstream media and wants to catch up on everything.

[isaac_clarke22]

~

I don't even think that it is even worth the wait for that. I would expect that a lot of people would cover up for him especially that even Musk claimed that Bitcoin mining is bad for the environment.
Now that as of writing this, just 10 hours after my recent comment in here, he is now memeing out of breaking up with Bitcoin.

[pinoycash]

He knows that he has the power to cause pump or  dump in crypto market and he already proven it. The community should learn to stop getting affected or emotional on his every tweet. He was like mcafee version 2.0 way back 2017 to 2018.

[Questat]

There is no reason to keep listen and read his tweets in regards to crypto. We're done anyway and now he is talking nonsense.

And every time I heard about Elon Musk, I can't stop myself to think that he will fool people again. I just hope that people have to open their minds and see what really he does to crypto, to the community, and so they could understand what he did in the past days. 

[liao chandra]

I don't want to listen to Elon. I think Elon is very inconsistent. A few months ago he seemed very supportive of bitcoin. But this week, he just didn't support it. This made the bitcoin market crash because of Elon. So I don't think we need to listen to him.

[LogitechMouse]

~

At first place, I didn't listen to him anyway. I'm just sticking to my plans and will not listen to influencers like him.
I've seen McAfee shilling some ICO's back in the past and I ignored. We saw Elon Shit doing some manipulative things by just tweeting optimistic posts about Bitcoin and many followed him .

I hope that those newbies who followed him and lost their money learned from this mistake that they've made. Blindly following others without having your own strategy is a deadly strategy . Make your own strategy, hodl if you want too and DYOR like many others are saying.

I've seen many comments in twitter begging to Elon to pump the market because its obvious that they lose their money. I can't feel sorry for them for what they've done because for me, it is a lesson for them.

[aysg76]

The market seems to be recovering after all this Musk cheap manipulations as prices were rising with normal speed struggling to rise and fight with FUD and whales but now he is again peeping his nose with his new tweets and his influence is so high at this time that even if we ignore him many investors are still listening to him inspite of all this crash situation in the market.His latest meme tweet shows Bitcoin with heart broken emoticon which again resulted in 3-4% price fall for btc.

He is once again trying to do the same manipulation in order to pump Dogecoin with his silly tactics.I personally listen to him that what kind of cheap tricks he is playing to get high profits even after gaining all wealth and that much status.Market don't need to react to his words but most often reverse happens.

Read here what he is doing : Musk new tweets

I never give a damn listening to any of What Elon Musk said, i don't even check His tweeter account , its just happen that there are many stupid people here in forum that continuously
sending and sharing His words inside but if i will to decide?
i will surely banned everything that elon says, so with that The market and the community will not be alarmed nor affected from what he will deliver.
because it is an obvious money making strategy on his part to make fun this whole market.

[DatKing]

I assume that so many people are really done listening to him already. He manipulated the price again recently. I wonder when he is going to stop this nonsense. He is just toying the market and investors are really angry with him.

[bounceback]

why listen to elon musk's bullshit we need to know he is not a god for bitcoin he is just a rich investor who just wants to make big profits for himself and we never know what his real goal is today in cryptocurrency so now its better for us continue to invest in our own beliefs without following FOMO.

[sapnu]

Elon Musk has been making too much noise lately and everyone is getting mad at what he's doing. He's been the talk of the town for so long but now, everyone's tired of listening to what he's saying. It is much likely that Dogecoin would be affected with this occurence since Elon Musk's tweet are centralized on advertising it so if ever people would stop bothering with his FUDs about crypto and in dogecoin, we will surely see it crashing down continuously. In my experience, I never bothered to listen to what he is saying.

Considering that he is a billionaire and bitcoin is considered a financial asset, no wonder he's influential in that case.
We can get insights from him, but we should not rely on it. A business person can be manipulative, which I guess is normal?
Getting people to do actions for them is one of their goals.

After checking his Twitter account, I'm sure many people will still follow his tweet, considering the financial asset he has. He will surely attract many people and prominent investor for his benefits.
I never follow any people tips/strategies because it's too risky for me. I do my own research and get some insight before I do invest.

for newbies that dont bother listening to others advice like us , they will continue doing what they think is right .
its not bad fo follow other peoples advice if you think he is reliable enough to follow but not the people like elon that is only here playing at the crypto market but it would be a lot better if you can do a final research in your own after getting info somewhere .

The issue is probably how often have you already heard Musk's words? If you are used to it and you observe the effects, I think it will decrease by a lot over time.

[Little Mouse]

I had never heard to Elon Musk lol. I had Doge from long ago, I bought @17 sats per Doge probably but sold very early. However, after a few tweets from Elon on Doge, the pump was expected but Doge was overhyped significantly for which I didn’t dare to invest in and thus, no follow to Elon Musk.
If we follow him, the price of crypto will be more volatile, risky to invest. Better we don't listen him.

I opted for the third option as well because it's not right to rely on anyone's opinion while you're the one risking with your own money. I think that it's no surprise that so many people voted for DYOR since those who listen to Elon and buy coins are probably newbies and aren't a big part of the Bitcointalk crypto community.
I don't think that Bitcoin's recovering yet and that another bull run will happen soon, though. That would be unprecedented. Why do you think it's currently recovering if the price is still below $40k?

[pawanjain]

So now that bitcoin is recovering well from it's drop we can expect a bull run again.
We all know how Elon pumped and then dumped the market through his influential tweets.
This what happens when people listen to others blindly and invest.
DYOR (Do Your Own Research) is the approach that everyone should follow.
Don't panic sell. There will be many such waves and many such influential people who might try to manipulate the market again.
HODL has always proved to be strong.

Why this thread ? - It's more like a wake up call to newbies and all those who blindly follow others.

P.S : I voted for 3rd option

So glad that you put the third option there, however I am surprised that no has selected the first option which is they had to learn the hard way, we know there were many people following everything he said and there were even bots that were developed to invest in the market based on his tweets, it seems to me some people are in denial about what happened and this is dangerous as it may happen again once another charismatic institutional investor comes and they follow him blindly once again.

Well we do have one person now who learnt the hard way   . The fact is that there are still many people who still follow others blindly.
But at the same time I happy that most of the people acknowledge the fact that influence can get you wrecked.

At first place, I didn't listen to him anyway. I'm just sticking to my plans and will not listen to influencers like him.
I've seen McAfee shilling some ICO's back in the past and I ignored. We saw Elon Shit doing some manipulative things by just tweeting optimistic posts about Bitcoin and many followed him .

I hope that those newbies who followed him and lost their money learned from this mistake that they've made. Blindly following others without having your own strategy is a deadly strategy . Make your own strategy, hodl if you want too and DYOR like many others are saying.

I've seen many comments in twitter begging to Elon to pump the market because its obvious that they lose their money. I can't feel sorry for them for what they've done because for me, it is a lesson for them.

I am sure the old timers would definitely know what happens when such influential people shill about crypto.
We have witnessed it before and the history repeats itself with a new personality this time.
Things haven't changed much though. This is why sticking to our own research and strategy is the best way to survive in the crypto community.

[speedy963]

Gaining momentum or not, I never really listened to his tweets even at the time he tweeted about dogecoin. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against the guy. In fact, I actually admire the innovative mind of Elon Musk and all of the things he has achieved. Its just that common sense kept whispering in my head that his tweets that are related to this industry are not significant enough to give a rat's ass about. Had others possessed the same mindset, none of this unwanted scenarios should've happened. *sigh*... I really do hope that people wake up from this bullcrap pretty soon since listening to Elon musk's tweets that are related to this industry would do nothing but harm for most of the people here specially the beginners.

[DrearyUrbanite]

What did you want from Elon? I'm sure he hasn't finished this epic yet.

That's what I believe, too. It would be as if he says hey guys I have proven I can build a Tesla, let's pack it. He has a plan up his sleeves.

[uneng]

The market seems to be recovering after all this Musk cheap manipulations as prices were rising with normal speed struggling to rise and fight with FUD and whales but now he is again peeping his nose with his new tweets and his influence is so high at this time that even if we ignore him many investors are still listening to him inspite of all this crash situation in the market.His latest meme tweet shows Bitcoin with heart broken emoticon which again resulted in 3-4% price fall for btc.

He is once again trying to do the same manipulation in order to pump Dogecoin with his silly tactics.I personally listen to him that what kind of cheap tricks he is playing to get high profits even after gaining all wealth and that much status.Market don't need to react to his words but most often reverse happens.

Read here what he is doing : Musk new tweets

I saw this bullshit today on twitter. I don't know, but it looks like he playing the broken heart guy who miss the ex (bitcoin) so much. At some point he will re-engage his romance with bitcoin and fans will cheer on him, just wait. Besides the usual flatterers on tweet's comments, there were also a lot of people angry on him for these annoying jokes and memes.
Maybe he thinks to be the crypto king with all his influence among investors, but he is actually the crypto joker, nothing more.

Not that really bad when it comes to listening or being aware with these things.It is just on how you do make act and do consider neither it would be part or would affect your initial investment decisions or not before or after knowing such words with those popular person on making out sentiments or give out words
according to their own views but for sure there would be always a catch in the end of the line.So neither you do take it or not and making hate just because
on how he do influenced out the market is on someones decisions and personal view of things.

[Bilgent]

Whenever Elon Musk tweets about cryptocurrencies, he just demolishes the market. No matter what, I'm totally against his manipulations. Recently, a lot of people lost a great deal of money because of him. I beg him to stop but he doesn't care about investors at all.

[Fredomago]

All the decision making still on your part, even there's a huge impact that may happened by dealing with good research and allow yourself

be familiar with how the market may react still depends on you, if you know well then you can act in favor to your investment, the bad thing is when you just listen blindly and follow those opinions without any valid reason behind.

So neither you do take it or not and making hate just because on how he do influenced out the market is on someones decisions and personal view of things.

Precisely! it's your take and those known people around have also the right of what they've think in regards to this market.

[kawetsriyanto]

Only careless newbies who listen Elon Musk, smart newbies won't do it. Elon Musk doesn't deserve to listen after too many bad attitudes done by him for crypto industry. What he tweeted today may be the opposite of what he tweets tomorrow. So, never trust his tweets anymore, guys! Also, don't pay attention to him anymore, he will be so happy if we all give much attention to him. He is trying to manipulate the crypto market and exploits crypto users. Stay away from his tweeter and all his social media!!

I don't totally ban Elon, I'm still reading his post on social media, and his tweets but I never have to follow him. I admire his positivity but I was thinking it was too much and fall into greediness which I don't.

Many become evil because of money. They'll be making themselves too powerful because of money. And that how he takes advantage of the others. Our first impression to Elon is really a good person which a high caliber of business ideas however, it all be done as he tried to start manipulating the market.

[Luqman]

No matter what, I'm totally against his manipulations.

Me, too. And even Changpeng Zhao hates him because he seems to manipulate the crypto market with his tweets.

Recently, a lot of people lost a great deal of money because of him. I beg him to stop but he doesn't care about investors at all.

True. Many people lost their money because of following him. It is not totally Elon's mistake, those who followed him also made a mistake. But Elon triggers many people to follow him. His tweets are like sugar that attracts people to read and follow them. Sadly, then Elon Musk made some tweets that become the opposite of his previous tweets. It very hurts for sure.

[Leviathan.007]

Unfortunately, some people are still listening to what he is saying and still waiting for his tweet for their trades. His tweets can effect the market in short term and make some sharp price movements in short term. These short term emotional price movements will make many people lose their money because during this time the price will manipulated by his tweets. However, all these things and his tweets can not the people who invest in long term. Hope someday people stop listing to him.

[Alanaz]

from the start I never listened to what he said but I still followed what he did and I was quite happy with these billionaires especially with the pumps they did I was quite interested to listen to it until the end. because for me these billionaires are very profitable on the one hand but on the other hand I don't like the way they are manipulated

hello sir, yes i totally agree with you right now the best thing is to hold our bitcoins in the future, don't panic too much with speculation whether it's from elon or other people, bitcoin has been like that for generations and there will be other waves affect bitcoin

[cheezcarls]

I believe the whales are easily manipulating Elon boy’s tweets, especially the “heartbroken” emoji in order for the “vulnerables” to panic and quickly sell their coins or tokens and the whales are gonna buy back at lower prices. Always DYOR as usual. Not a fan of Elon boy or even following him, but he’s just one of the many influencers out there who could either drive the crypto price up or down.

[germsite]

You could also twist it around to be honest and argue that a lot of people also made a lot of money because of him. That's a moral topic. I mean he didn't force anyone into buying. Ultimately it is the peoples' own decision to either listen to him and invest or not. Those who did don't really have the right to complain because he didn't make false claims about DOGE as far as I remember. He just demonstrated he likes it and supports it.

[irsykes]

i'm not listening, but i follow what happened in crypto because of Elon. Some of my friends said that we don't need to fight trend that still happens because there are something big out there that not equal to us. If Elon said good, it means bigger chance for crypto price to increased, if he start to talk bad, we should ready for coins that we already bought.

[Tumanggor]

I agree, it's clear that whales are using Elon's tweets for their benefit
Elon has influence, whales definitely won't mess with the market with their hands

I personally consider the Bitcoin market movement to happen naturally
Elon and others are just playing their part

Even if you are against the manipulation, you won't be able to do a thing. Also, I find you funny for begging him to stop as if Elon knows that you exist and even if he does in a strange way, pretty sure that he only sees you as a number that will increase his portfolio. In this kind of thing, the best position is to be neutral because no point going against and being on his side because you won't reap the benefits for the two at the same time.

[Kakmakr]

I regard Elon Musk as a knowledgeable expert in Payment Systems, with his prior experience with "PayPal" .... but things are changing fast and I think Elon Musk is so involved with several other projects now, that he somehow lost his touch with reality.

The guy is not one of the richest people in the world, because he is a idiot... so you cannot disregard his inputs and opinion... but when his tweets are used to manipulate markets.. then I stop listening to him. (I am not into Pump n Dump coins)    <=== Shiba Inu

many acknowledge and admire @elonmusk, but I regret that his followers can be moved unconsciously and want to follow what they want, without wanting to analyze properly even most of them are experienced in the crypto field.

what his followers do without understanding the impact that will occur will ultimately benefit what is the desired goal, if they don't want to take excessive action then the bitcoin market will have no impact on people like him but this is the umpteenth experience and let it be for learning so as not to repeat what he said, immediately do it with action without any prior analysis.

[Pandji02]

I've never listened to him. Why would i? It's not very clever to listen to popular millionaire. Especially when it comes to your finances.

this year there are many beginner bitcoiners, maybe he is a new investor, or maybe investors from other commodities who join bitcoin, so it's only natural that the figure of Ellon can hypnotize them to move as if according to his direction. but I don't think that power will last long, considering that nowadays many people are starting to dislike its stance, which is interpreted as only seeking personal gain.

[freedomgo]

Wasn't listening anyway. I believe in DYOR

That's my vote.

Yes, I never listen to Elon, though I believe that he is a vital reason on the success of a bull run but I know it's just temporary and his shilling power has slowly disappeared now. Those who followed, they should learn and it's okay to learn the hard way, as long as we correct our mistakes, we always have a chance to succeed.

[dansus021]

to be honest i followed elon musk when he support dogecoin but after pump and dump lately i will unfollow him and there"s anonymous on youtube that have message for elon musk

He has never really said anything particularly technical, just some minor stuff that anyone knows anyway. Why his words are of value in the literal sense is because everybody knows he could kick off another bull run and then they just jump in for a ride.

[pixie85]

I've never listened to him. Why would i? It's not very clever to listen to popular millionaire. Especially when it comes to your finances.

And especially when millionaires aren't smart and hard working. When millionaires had rich parents who gave them money to invest, like it happened with Elon, they aren't really people you want to look up to.

I feel like people don't like Musk but they envy him and he's childish and attention seeking so it's a perfect match. He want's attention and shitposts a lot and it entertains people so they read it.

[Shasha80]

to be honest i followed elon musk when he support dogecoin but after pump and dump lately i will unfollow him and there"s anonymous on youtube that have message for elon musk

I am like you following Elon Musk since the Dogecoin pump is very high, I am one of those who learn the hard way. After Elon Musk did a pump
and dump on Dogecoin, he continued to manipulate Bitcoin prices. I was very disappointed and just realized my mistake in trusting greedy people
like Elon Musk. I think his success with Tesla has made Elon Musk a wise and kind person. It turns out that my guess was wrong all along, Elon Musk is
just a greedy and selfish person who does anything for his own sake.

[bitterguy28]

I never listen to anything from Him lol, actually i only find His tweets inside this forum when i have no option to blocked completely those posters . because even if i do to the first yet there are always others that creating same thread like this.

to be honest i followed elon musk when he support dogecoin but after pump and dump lately i will unfollow him and there"s anonymous on youtube that have message for elon musk

so you are once a Fan of Elon huh?

That's why People like Elon can just Play with tons of money like this and care nothing about what would be the effect instead they only care for their gains.
I hate people like those.

[Chato1977]

there is nothing to believe in his words though he kept on shaking the market everytime he opens his mouth.

to be honest i followed elon musk when he support dogecoin but after pump and dump lately i will unfollow him and there"s anonymous on youtube that have message for elon musk

Well back in the days.

Wait , does Elon stops supporting Dogecoin now?

[Naficopa]

I was among of the losers who bought BTC when it went down to 50K (hoping that BTC will recover soon) and sold when it went down to 32k. Crypto market which is said to be neither under single person control drastically collapsed due to one man tweet. We have to admit that this community made MUSK the crypto king.

[Hazank]

I used to take note of his tweets, but I won't anymore, for me he is no longer a true reference point but another orienting scammer 

[BurningChrome]

We have to admit that this community made MUSK the crypto king.

No, we don't. If you have followed, THIS community has warned of such manipulative individuals from the very beginning.

[MainJade]

His memes and crypto manipulation, yes it's peculiar.

[peter0425]

I used to take note of his tweets, but I won't anymore, for me he is no longer a true reference point but another orienting scammer 

It is ok to take note His tweets but never shared in public so there will be no more affected parties because every time His tweets being shared it starts FUD and the weak investors are starts to panic and sell .
but good for you to stop following Him because he is a clearly scammer and not to be trusted.

His memes and crypto manipulation, yes it's peculiar.

So you are not following him as well?

[PrimRock]

I think he's done spitting the Bull s**t

[KarmaIsme]

I must say he did manage to pull of Doge meme and affected its volume by Billions.

[BADecker]

Are you done listening to Elon ?


What? Do you want us to start looking at the pictures?

[WNTRjon]

Elon Musk is one of (if not the) richest men in the world.

Money is power.

If you aren't listening to what Elon Musk says, you are missing out.

It doesn't mean you have to trust what he says, but listening is well advised.

[usernameyaya]

Following the trend is the best way, and the Fed is also very important, isn't it? It has a stronger influence on the cryptocurrency market than Elon.
