Yeah because all tesla cars run on 100% clean energy, SpaceX rockets that keep exploding resurfacing definitely dont pollute the environment, all the machines hes using to build underground car roads is all clean energy too. Hes just the best green knight we've ever had.

Bitcoin -27% from its peak. The bear has just started Watch this video Bitcoin Special Report - The Crypto Casino | Bitcoin Warning | Proof of Life Failure | Chart Review

TPTB letting the rich manipulate the market? *gasp* so shocking....

He knew the environmental details up front. He is not that stupid. The reasoning he gave is a cover. I’m disappointed in his dishonesty.

Oh so he basically did a pump and dump scheme using crypto currency. Nice.

The change was due to other concerns, the expressed reason was PR.

I think news orgs do a disservice by just transcribing what powerful people say as if it’s true. He SAID they’re no longer taking Bitcoin because of the environmental concerns, but the actual reason seems to boosting doge to make himself $$$

Elon Musk admitted he made a mistake. Plus, remember that bitcoin was the first crypto, but much like we don’t still fly in the first airplanes made, there are better cryptocoin out there.

So is he going to stop exploiting the working class as he uses tax payer funded tech to run his government subsidized corporation while hoarding all the profits that he did almost nothing to acquire? But i guess NPR pushes the same pro corporate/anti worker narrative too...

Elon musk can take his apartheid fortune and go fuck himself

Hey liberals how about all those rockets,satellites, and rare earth minerals being produced? Good?

To “mine” a fake currency? This whole thing is stupid.

Don't be surprised when pipeline shut down after you vote in people who shut down Pipelines

I don't see what the big deal is. In fact, it's refreshing to see him admit a mistake and change course. Had he continued on this path, that would have been troubling.

...?

Lying opportunist. Look at his track record.

...A Plea to elonmusk

This guy elonmusk is much slower than he thinks.

Pump-and-dump on an epic scale.

In everything I do, I believe in challenging the status quo. I challenge the status quo by providing client-focused and goal-driven web design services at affordable rates. I happen to design great websites. Will you like to get one for yourself or your business?

Forget Elon moves the needle, elonmusk is the needle.

He shorted his stocks. He needs to be investigated.

It’s nonsense, it‘s likely a move to game the price...

Thank you so much UNI__GIVEAWAY 🙏💰 Just received 1100 Uniswap coins in my MyEtherWallet

nice to see he's admitting that mines are bad

I just cannot get my head around this shit. Does my head in.
