Wonder when Elon will complete this pump & dump just like he did with bitcoin. He is either a fraudster or a moron, when he decided to embrace bitcoin and a month later decided it wasn't good for the environment... Anyone with access to the internet and a few minutes time can figure out the power consumption required to back a network which supports a miniscule amount of transactions. And that power usage will only grow as acceptance and price continues to rise.
- mlindner 5y agoThis has nothing to do with SpaceX or Elon. The Ethereum node was part of cargo contracted with NASA.
- TechBro8615 5y agoI’d like to be a fly on the wall of the SEC when the subject of Elon comes up. At this point I’m pretty sure he’s deliberately trolling them.
- donkeyd 5y agoI have the same feeling. Elon despises the SEC and he might have found a way to mess with them by playing with a mostly unregulated market. Edit: Also, his name was used a lot by crypto scammers on Twitter and nothing was ever done about those. That might also have pissed him off even more.
- TeMPOraL 5y agoI'm holding out hope that he's deliberately trying to destroy the cryptocurrency market.
- bidirectional 5y agoExcept 'messing with the SEC' is actually messing with innocent people who's protection is outside the remit of the SEC.
- ushakov 5y agoWhat else would you expect from a person, who was sued by SEC for fraud? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk#SEC_lawsuit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk#SEC_lawsuit No regrets, when return is greater than penalty "Musk has stated in interviews he does not regret the tweet that triggered the SEC investigation"
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoWhy would he? It's made him and "the shareholders" a lot of money. The SEC is toothless if you're a billionaire.
- elliekelly 5y agoI’m not sure Musk has seen the last penalty for that tweet. The SEC has been corresponding with Tesla about Musk’s noncompliance with the court-ordered legal review of his tweets.
- ushakov 5y agoElon's agenda: 1. Bitcoin bad 2. Bitcoin not green enough 3. Miners buy SolarRoof and Tesla Batteries, else Tesla will use it's billions to manipulate markets
- Tepix 5y agoIsn't Tesla still holding most of the bitcoin it bought?
- nickik 5y agoThis has literally nothing to do with Elon. Did you even read the article? Somebody paid SpaceX to transport something from A to B, that all.
