I assume the accusation is that Musk has a Twitter account where the tweets get replicated to the business section of most media outlets globally at the moment.

He also has a history of dropping financial information through Twitter (the taking Tesla private tweet). Plus the rabid groupies stacked with Crypto fans.
I'm not sure how tweeting something that pumps the Bitcoin price, and the selling a bunch plays out legally. But he didn't seem too bothered about it in relation to Tesla stock.
