Elon Musk was the biggest story in the cryptoverse yet again. Sadly, it was for all the wrong reasons ?. But before we start crying, let’s dive into some of last week’s gist ?. Enjoy!
Tesla x Bitcoin: A Messy Breakup
Last week was awesome for Bitcoin before Elon Musk looked outside his window and said “you know what? It’s time to switch things up a little bit ?”. So he did what any billionaire with infinite control over internet culture would do: he tweeted. Sadly, the tweet was about how Tesla won’t accept Bitcoin payments because of energy concerns. So be patient with your Bitcoin this week. Its heart is broken?
