Elon Musk Says: "I'm Not Going to Be Promoting Crypto"
Serial tech entrepreneur Elon Musk has taken part in today’s X Takeover podcast hosted by the Tesla Owners Silicon Valley account. It was held on Musk’s X social media platform.
When asked to share his current take on the world’s leading cryptocurrency, Musk responded that he does think “there is merit in Bitcoin and maybe some other cryptos.” The tech mogul admitted that he has a soft spot for the original meme cryptocurrency, Dogecoin, because he likes “dogs and memes.”
However, Musk made it clear that he does not intend to promote crypto...any crypto. The maximum he would do, though, he added, was to do it “in a joking way.” He also said that if anyone sees a video where he is pumping crypto, that is a deepfake.

A recent proposal passed by Compound Finance’s DAO has sparked claims of a governance attack after a small group led by whale Humpy amassed enough tokens on the open market to help narrowly pass their proposal over the objections of many community members.
The proposal allocates 499,000 COMP tokens, currently worth about $24 million, to a yield-bearing protocol controlled by ‘the Golden Boys,’ the group led by Humpy which pushed the proposal through and has allegedly undertaken similar DAO-hijacking behavior in the past.
