For those who are late to the scene, let me recall the timeline of the events:
8th February 2021: Elon Musk announces that Telsa will accept Bitcoin. Admits that BTC is better than fiat cash.
March 2021: Elon realizes that Bitcoin is a truly centralized cryptocurrency and can't be manipulated by anyone (including himself)
April 2021: Elon discovers that shitcoins such as Dogecoin can be manipulated with ease and makes a plan to promote them instead of Bitcoin
May 2021: Elon comes up with the excuse that Bitcoin is not environmentally friendly and asks his followers to use shitcoins instead
I have been a Bitcoin user for 9 years and I have seen this sort of manipulation before. I had a lot of respect for Elon. But now I feel indifference towards him. He is no different from the other billionaires.
