Elon Musk är optimistisk om Bitcoin
- Bitcoin är långt ifrån sin all-time high, men Musk förväntar sig att den ska överleva björnmarknaden.
- Musk has remained active since the FTX saga, revealing that he rejected Sam Bankman-Fried’s offer to help him purchase Twitter.
Den nya Twitter-vd:n och kryptoentusiasten Elon Musk är optimistisk att Bitcoin kommer att återgå till sin fulla styrka trots att den är på en av sina lägsta punkter. Liksom resten av marknaden försvagades Bitcoin av FTX-sagan, som fortsätter att dominera rubrikerna.
In a tweet, Musk wrote, “Bitcoin will make it, but it might be a long winter.” His comments might have sparked fresh hope in the hearts of his followers, who have been distraught by Bitcoin’s performance in this bear market.
BTC kommer att klara det, men kan bli en lång vinter

Musk’s comments came in response to questions about Bitcoin’s future. About a year ago, the foremost cryptocurrency traded at an impressive all-time high of $69K. But according to Coinmarketcap, Bitcoin handlas för närvarande till $16,601,35.
Trots den senaste kritiken han har mött har Musk förblivit aktiv i ämnen som involverar kryptoindustrin. Miljardären kommenterade nyligen FTX-kollapsen. Teslas vd sa att han avvisade Sam Bankman-Fried‘s offer to help fund his Twitter acquisition. Musk said the now disgraced FTX founder set off his ‘bulls**t meter.”
While speaking in a Twitter Spaces audio chatroom, Musk claimed he had never heard of the 30-year-old SBF. Musk said close sources informed him of Bankman-Fried’s desire to bankroll the purchase. He said,
But then I got a ton of people telling me [that] he’s got, you know, huge amounts of money that he wants to invest in the Twitter deal. And I talked to him for about half an hour. And I know my bulls**t meter was redlining. It was like, this dude is bulls**t – that was my impression.
Musk shared more details about his impressions of Bankman-Fried, adding that he felt “there’s something wrong, and he (Bankman-Fried) does not have capital, and he will not come through. That was my prediction.”
Meanwhile, FTX announced on Saturday that it observed “unauthorized transactions.” Several analysts revealed that assets worth millions of dollars were withdrawn from the collapsed exchange.
