Bitcoin on X? Elon Musk opens the door to this possibility

Yesterday, Elon Musk spoke with Cathie Wood about an X Space and shared his thoughts on bitcoin. The American billionaire, confirming his holding of DOGE and BTC via SpaceX, reassured by stating that he is “open to the idea of using bitcoin on X”.

X (Twitter) to be bitcoin-friendly soon?

The question arises: Will X (Twitter) become bitcoin-friendly soon? Elon Musk, on his part, does not plan a crypto linked to X. As for the integration of bitcoin into his “everything app,” the response from the crypto community will not go unnoticed.

“Elon Musk stated in an X space with Cathie Wood that he is open to the idea of using Bitcoin on X.”

Based on Musk’s interventions during the X space titled “ARK 21Shares Bitcoin (ARKB) Approved”, Benzinga pointed out the “usually passive stance” of the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX on cryptocurrencies.

“I don’t spend much time thinking about bitcoin,” he specified. This does not prevent an openness “to the idea of using bitcoin on X”.

In other words, the holding of bitcoins via SpaceX and many Dogecoins (DOGE) in his personal wallets does not reflect a special admiration for these digital assets.

Another crucial point: Elon Musk reportedly refused at one point to discuss the bitcoin topic during the exchanges, which earned him a trolling by the bitcoin community, currently very popular on social media.

Here's a video of a Bitcoin Maximalist trolling Elon Musk for having a differing view on Bitcoin and not wanting to discuss it on Cathie Wood’s space. This behavior is a significant weakness for Bitcoin.

“Here is a video of Bitcoin maximalists trolling Elon Musk for having a different viewpoint on Bitcoin and not wanting to talk about it on Cathie Wood’s space. This behavior is a significant weakness for bitcoin.

These maximalists consider it a victory to publicly troll influential figures like Elon Musk, rather than engaging in a constructive conversation with someone who has such a significant platform.”
