In a discussion on the popular Clubhouse audio app late Sunday, Musk confirmed he was a supporter of bitcoin.

"I've got to watch what I say here because some of these things can really move the market," Musk said. "Many friends of mine have tried to convince me to get involved in bitcoin for a long time."

Musk said he once ate a slice of "bitcoin cake" given to him by a friend in 2013, and that he "clearly … should have at least bought some bitcoin eight years ago — talk about being late to the party.""I think bitcoin is really on the verge of getting broad acceptance by conventional finance people." Musk added that he doesn't have "strong opinion" on other virtual currencies. He has tweeted about the meme-based cryptocurrency dogecoin in the past and in 2019 indicated that it was his "fav cryptocurrency."in the space of 24 hours after a tweet from Musk was taken by Reddit users to mean he was throwing his support behind the token.

The riches of Europe would be concentrated on the shores of the Zuyder Zee, and poverty banished from the favoured clime of Holland. Nobles, citizens, farmers, mechanics, seamen, footmen, maidservants, even chimney sweeps and old clotheswomen, dabbled in tulips.

Every one imagined that the passion for tulips would last for ever, and that the wealthy from every part of the world would send to Holland, and pay whatever prices were asked for them.

Many individuals suddenly became rich. A golden bait hung temptingly out before the people, and, one after the other, they rushed to the tulip marts, like flies around a honey-pot.

Bitcoin for freedom.

Bitcoin is just another stock on Wall Street, and another payment option on main street. Why? Because it’s moved from independent and revolutionary financial tool, to part of the fiat system. Lol it’s exciting to follow because it’s new, not because it’s still revolutionary.

Good reason NOT to like Bitcoin
