I smell another John McAfee parody with this meme coin and Elon musk chilling all other the internet, the guy will end up losing his respect and people who aren't wise at making decisions will end up hating him, John McAfee used to chill crypto projects forcing the unknown to rush and buy well Elon Musk is the John McAfee Part 2
I have not fully lived the Macfee experience but it seems that he ended up in oblivion and had problems with the law ... Musk will be smarter and even if we will remember 2021 as the year of meme madness launched by Musk, also of him we will forget.

At this point it's clear that all this character assassination of bitcoin is to get people moving away from the number 1 coin to the meme coin,dogecoin.

It's bad publicity but you know what they say, any sort of publicity good or bad counts for good publicity, I wounder how much his invested in Doge.

Elon playing the villain and Super Hero at the same time,his bad!

I dislike what Elon is currently doing, but I guess he'll soon realize that this isn't the way to go. If he wants to help people, he will soon refrain from shilling doge and just focus on his companies' success, especially Tesla now that competition is starting to get beefed up. His ego is being stroked by a lot of his followers and he's enjoying every single bit of it, and soon he'll get tired of what he's doing and drop the crypto gig up. McAfee is a complete degenerate that shills for the money and money alone. Never did any projects that somehow benefits a lot of people, but Elon got that covered at the least.

I don't think Elon Musk can be compared to John McAfee. They are completely different people and they also performed different actions in relation to cryptocurrency. John McAfee earned in dishonest ways on cryptocurrency. In relation to Elon Musk, one cannot say that he uses dishonest methods, and also that he commits his actions for the purpose of earning money. Elon Musk does not even directly advertise cryptocurrency and does not encourage anyone to buy Bitcoin or Doge. He also has the right to decide whether or not to accept bitcoins as payment for Tesla cars, and we cannot blame him for that.

I think they are similar but different
what I mean is elon musk just mean use his name on doge (not too greedy) whereas McAfee is a very greedy person and uses his name in many scam projects

Use his name to split from those many shitcoins and accept payments for chilling about new project (McAfee)

While just like what you have said about Musk which he's playing with Doge and he's really hitting on it and

making huge market movements.

From my assessment of how the market and Elon musk has been trolling, I feel Elon musk is doing all this purely for entertainment. I'm certain that he's not getting paid for this manipulations. The truth is that most people would end up getting hurt from the market this period and its going to be worse than the last bull run of 2017.

This market is very unstable and Musk will not be the last if market such continues. There's a lot of speculative action going on, Musk is just the part we see. It seems that we still have a long time ahead of us to have real power of cryptocurrencies  Undecided

I must assert that McAfee is a low-level businessman and his influence cannot be compared with Elon Musk.
McAfee promotes money-making projects and he promotes scam projects. It was a job that brought him income. As a result of what he did, many people lost their money, he also had to pay the price when someone tried to assassinate him in 2019.
Elon Musk only bought 2 cryptocurrencies, DOGE and Bitcoin. The problem with him manipulating Bitcoin and DOGE in his tweets is pretty obvious. Because of his tweets, the crypto market exploded in value when in February Elon took Bitcoin from $38,000 to $46,000 in a few hours with Tesla buying $1.5 billion in Bitcoin.

There are some basic difference. McAfee actually shilled about a coin or token after getting paid while Elon do at his will (and maybe after he buys it for cheap). Jokes aside, I still have respect for Elon and what he said about bitcoin does hold truth. While the world moves towards conserving energy, bitcoin is a very energy intense network to keep running. It doesn't fit in the new world in current form.

It seems like every bull run there is this one personality that would be popular, last bull run was McAfee, now we have Musk.. they are obviously manipulating the market, but they will never be guilty with that illegally. What we should do now is we just have to educate ourselves, learn from the past, that last bull run made a lot of investors regret as they end up holding useless coins, now, we should be more diligent and always DYOR.

I agree that both are manipulating the crypto market, but Elon Musk is slightly better than McAfee. Because Elon Musk never promotes scam coins,
while McAfee often promotes scam coins. Even though we are influenced by Elon Musk buying Bitcoin and Dogecoin, the opportunity to get profit is
still possible. Whereas McAfee affects us to buy scam coins, which is where we will lose the capital we have. Therefore, it is better if we make a decision
not to be too influenced by other people, we also have to be able to do research on the projects we want to buy.

I believe this guy (Elon musk) worth more than billions right now because doge has no max supply, only God knows how many doge coin this fella buy before making that crazy tweet over the internet, anyways the guy is on his way to ruining his reputation, good luck to him
In general, Elon Musk is the most successful person in this world so whatever he tweeted over the internet will always have a good effect on these products including Dogecoin, so don't be surprised by that because some people really believe Elon Musk's every word now.

I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would ever compare Elon Musk with John McAfee. But that time has come now. What Elon is doing is pure manipulation.. although I don't think that he is profiting out of it. I can no longer classify his actions as "trolling". And I really don't know why he's doing this. John McAfee promoted shitcoins for monetary rewards. But why Elon is promoting them? As far as I know, he is not getting any payments.  
We know that Elon musk invested 1.5 billion in Bitcoin, right? But the question is how do we know he invested? Recently we saw the vote for Dogecoin to accept Tesla. Now he is focusing on how to improve system transaction efficiency. But I don't believe in infinity supply, even transaction are much efficient.

It is a form of entertainment to someone with his amount of money and is used to satisfy his enormous ego. Elon was only ever looking out for Elon, regardless of what his many sheep, sorry - followers, may have thought. I give him credit that he spent a lot of money on Space X and some of the stuff with Tesla (mainly related to battery production), he has done more than many billionaires who would rather buy football clubs or hundred million dollar yachts. If he was able to control himself and act with just a bit more decorum he might be more respected. However calling rescuers names, constantly hyping cryptocurrency for fun and engaging in what effectively amounts to insider trading with the Tesla stock all earned him a bad reputation with most professionals.

The problem I see with your reasoning is that if Elon wasn't Elon, but a more moderate Elon, would he ever in his damn life considered to fire rockets with passengers to Mars and start building a company for that? Would he have decided to build the car company called Tesla? Would he ever have decided to start the Boring Company, building underground tunnels to speed up traffic?
Let's give him the benefit of the doubt and not assume he is some weird idiot who doesn't deserve respect. To me he is like an artist, most of which took drugs and drank tons of alcohol and then painted their hundred million dollar paintings.

Elon wouldn't have tried all these things he is doing if he wasn't out of his mind by nature.

I want to add one point though: Calling the rescuer names is not covered by the benefit of the doubt, That is just idiotic and deserves the highest disrespect!

That makes sense but elon was giving a greater impact compared with mcafee but both were only taking the opportunities in the crypto. We should never trust any entity. So many of them have their own agenda.
Elon was holding doge coin and that's why he was shilling doge coin to make it increases but no one knows whether the company already started to sell their stash or not.
Mcafee was also fooling people for money but this was in the small circle.

We’ll see this on the next decision of Elon Musk, but for now its hard to say that Elon will ended up like McAfee who supported many scam projects before. I personally don’t want the hype of Elon Musk because it looks like he is manipulating the market but since he’s a reputable business man, many tend to follow him. Hopefully, he wont hype scam projects as well, and keep supporting cryptocurrency until the end.

I don't see a very big difference. They are both scammers the only difference is that one of them is much richer and knows how to hide his schemes better.

But I don't think he will get away with it forever, too many people lost cash and now if Coinbase will list Dogecoin even more will lose (because he will continue his dumb Dogecoin pumping tweets) and they will get very angry on him. He will get the karma he deserves in the end.

There is a big difference between Elon musk and john Mcafee and that is  the fact that McAfee got paid to be an official advisor for some cryptocurrency projects and he also actively promoted them.
This led a lot of people astray due to his reputation and that is wrong
Elon on the other hand is chilling in the same manner that a lot of people already chill their favorite coins and he isn't promoting it to anyone as a good investment... So it is very different

i have to agree here. McAfee received a lot of money just by endorsing several ICO projects before that ended up badly for the investors. if some of here remember, some projects here included his name on their title thread just to attract investors. whereas, with Elon, he doesn't need to accept that kind of payment, let's say from doge, because he doesn't need it. it is his own freewill why he is promoting doge. and he is also advising the public that this is a high risk investment.
now, the reputation of McAfee is not-so-good because of those failed projects under his name. elon, on the other hand, is promoting an old alt that has been in the market for years, and wanted to include in their payment system. won't compare these 2 though.

He is almost like Mcaffee although, he is much better in the eyes of the institutions because this guy helped them buy from the hodlers who panicked after he shakeoff the market thru the tweets. I personally like what he done because I profited from dogecoin, I guess it depends whether you make use of what he had done or not.

He had been appearing to make media these days even on 60minutes.
