Elon Musk Stuns Community With Big Crypto Scam Warning: ‘Block Him’

Elon Musk, Tesla CEO and owner of the X platform, has ignited the crypto community with a warning about crypto scammers becoming more active lately. Particularly, according to the meme post issued by Musk, this is true about social media and messaging apps.

As in the good old days, Musk is again posting memes and jokes about crypto on his Twitter account – in the times when he was on the peak of doing that, the X platform was still called Twitter.

Elon Musk’s crypto scam warning

The tech billionaire, whose influence and scale of operations has exceeded those of every other tech entrepreneur, has published an anti-crypto scam warning in the form of a joke written on an image of an ancient Greek god of sea – Poseidon. The image contains a “quote” of Poseidon, who warns crypto enthusiasts that these days hot girls can text guys and start chatting about crypto to them.

US government has no plans to use DOGE, Musk reveals

As reported by U.Today, on March 31, Musk took to his X account to deliver an important message to the crypto community about Dogecoin, the original meme cryptocurrency that he openly supports in public. There were no other crypto tweets between that post and the one Musk issued today, by the way.

Back then, three weeks ago, the influential tech entrepreneur revealed that the US government has no plans to use Dogecoin or any other cryptocurrency so far. He stated that during one of his public speeches. First of all, this statement referred to the current activities of the Department of Government Efficiency that Musk leads and which he prefers to officially call D.O.G.E. since otherwise it sounds “boring” he said. He made it clear that D.O.G.E. is not connected to DOGE in any possible way, even though the names have the same spelling and sound the same.
