I am not completely sure what price they bought in, but as mentioned before it seemed it was around 30k-50k.
Also, why would a company like Tesla be in such need for cash that they decided to sell their Bitcoin investment at a loss?

I believe it is highly unlikely they needed the cash,
keeping in mind their stock price is relatively stable at the moment, around 700$ per share.
I'd dare the speculate that this was the result of pressure by some shareholders that thought it was a good idea to panic sell or perhaps this was a preventive measure in the advent of thougher environmental regulations against PoW cryptocurrencies and those companies that holds them.

In any case, this only works as a reminder that there are people in this forum that are more authentic Bitcoiners holding a few satothis than a big company holding thousands of BTC.

I'm on the same motion with you! I think they needed cash which was the most available to solve the issues they had at that point ( I heard they laid off some of them employees ). I also think they are still carrying experiment of holding Bitcoin. Some peeps who have Elon as them Social media influencer must have panicked sell though but did sell of those Bitcoins reduce the price of Bitcoin in anyway ?
No if I can recall vividly.

Fiat currency are debased and losses it value day after day, also backed by the government which we all know are in support of privacy and Bitcoin to an extent. It was a good chance for peeps to stack up those little SATs. If they did great, if they didn't then it's up too them own detriments. Bitcoin is a better investment when bought, and held for long term purpose ( 4- 7 year's interval )

My first thought on this weak weak hands but let’s be honest here, Musk is one of the most intelligent people on earth. Surely he's one step ahead of the game here. Maybe he’s calculated the probability that we fall from here & he can buy them all back much cheaper. Maybe he’s telling the truth & TESLA needed cash, hmmmmm.

Of course. Elon wouldn't sell without analyzing the market first. He's known to manipulate the public with his tweets, so I'm pretty sure he sold his BTC and cashed out big profits in the process. Since Elon Musk is a wealthy person, he can buy more BTC if he wants to and sell at a later time when the market turns bullish again. He really has nothing to lose. Unfortunately, the ones that will go "rekt" very badly are his followers. Those who usually invest into BTC or DOGE based on what Elon Musk says are basically newcomers into the world of crypto/Blockchain tech. They believe just because a wealthy person like Elon Musk is patronizing DOGE, means that it's a good long-term investment. But that's not really the case.

I think the media has concentrated a lot of attention into Elon Musk himself, greatly affecting (either positively or negatively) crypto prices within the short term. If this keeps up, then Mr. Musk would effectively control the crypto market to his hearts' content. Just my opinion Smiley
