Unfortunately it isn't even relevant news and yet it caused a bad reaction. Clearly Elon doesn't even know what he's talking about when he's talking about emissions and <1% of stuff. He should learn about PoW better first, and try and use ETC or something and see just how easy he can get 51% attacked. Too bad people won't realize what an idiot he is when he's trying to be funny.
Yeah, I think this is the reason why the market all of a sudden goes down.
So still as much as we hate Elon, he know became an influencer, in the beginning when we says that they have bought bitcoin and used it a hedge on their balance sheet, we all sing praises for him. But he is becoming worst by day. And then his statement? Damn, I don't know where he get his information because obviously, it is misconstrued.
But probably his attack has some bad intention behind, to bring the market down so that he can enter and scoop cheap bitcoins, very clever Elon!!! So we are not going to $70k this day but ~$50k.
Yes, it is incredible that in less than 1 hour the bitcoin has fallen by 10% completely, but not everything is bad, because Mark Cuban countered by saying that the Mavs do accept Bitcoin.

It only remains to wait and see if the price of BTC recovers, I think it will be a slight drop, Elon Musk may be opening the way to build his next tweet for Doge, and cause a pump to win.
