…. If the goal was to drive Tesla enthusiasts to hate crypto then things are going well!
I already hated crypto. An energy-wasting pyramid scheme whose only utility is to serve as a vehicle for speculation and as a way for ransomeware criminals to collect extortion money untraceably. And to a lesser extent, tax evasion and black-market transactions generally, from drugs to sex slaves.
What Tesla's purchase of BTC did for me was to lower Elon in my estimation. Speculating with stockholders' money in a pyramid scheme that empowers criminals was a rotten thing to do.
