THE price of Bitcoin is breaking all-time records after Elon Musk revealed Tesla invested $1.5 billion in the cryptocurrency.
This morning the cryptocurrency soared beyong $48,000 on the cyptocurrency markets as investors raced to take advantage of an inevitable post-Musk surge.
In a statement yesterday, Tesla revealed it would soon begin accepting payments in Bitcoin, and the world’s richest man admitted the firm had made a massive investment of its own in the surging online currency.
Meanwhile another tweet from Musk sent another crytocurrency soaring after he described the once-mocked Dogecoin currency as “the future”.
The coin, which began as a joke in 2013, has surged in value by 1,250% over the past year after a huge number of investors decided to simultaneously pump cash into the coin to make it a legit trading option.
