🔎 What’s going on now with Elon Musk & Crypto

Bitcoin & Musk: Energy = Value

Musk recently described Bitcoin not just as digital money, but as a kind of “energy-based currency.” His argument: fiat money can be printed by governments, but energy (used in Bitcoin mining) cannot — giving Bitcoin a more “fundamental” value base.

He suggested that in a future where energy and computational work matter more than traditional money, Bitcoin makes sense as a store of value — a shift from thinking of currency as paper or tokens.

Activity from SpaceX — Massive Bitcoin Moves

SpaceX moved significant amounts of Bitcoin recently: one of the latest transfers was 281 $BTC (≈ US$31 million), part of a pattern of consolidation.

In total, over 4,300 $BTC were transferred in October 2025 alone — analysts suggest these moves are more about custody and security rather than selling.

Crypto Market Today — Price Drop

The broader crypto market is experiencing turbulence: Bitcoin recently plunged below US $88,000, and other major coins like Ethereum$ETH fell ~6%.

This decline has prompted many investors to reassess their positions and consider volatility risks.

Musk’s Long-Term Vision: Money Might “Die”, Value = Energy

On a recent podcast, Musk argued that traditional money — as we know it — could “die” as a concept. In a future of abundance (thanks to energy and AI), energy itself — or value derived from real resources/energy — might replace money. He suggested cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, which tie value to energy/work, could survive this shift.

Aftermath: Meme-coins & Speculative Tokens Surge (with Risk)

Following some of those statements (and related events like Musk’s big pay-package or news about Bitcoin), a surge of memecoins and speculative tokens — sometimes using his name or popularity — popped up quickly. Examples include tokens named “TRILLIONS” or “MUSK.” Many of these saw rapid spikes but also quick crashes, sometimes raising fears of scams or exit-rushes.

This highlights how much influence Musk still has on crypto sentiment — for better or worse.
