    Elon is just trolling. He talked about Bitcoin recently in a Clubhouse meetup some days ago where he admitted that he was a bit late to the Bitcoin party and that the Dogecoin stuff were just jokes. I think he wants to shift focus to Dogecoin so that he buys Bitcoin.

    There was a SpaceX personnel that attended Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin conference yesterday. He wants to get into Bitcoin relatively cheap, I’m 95% sure of that. The Dogecoin thing is a distraction.
