Oh the irony... Mark Cuban is a bigger BTC bull than Elon Musk

in #bitcoin4 years ago

It's ironic that Mark Cuban now supports bitcoin against Elon Musk, never thought I'd see the day...

The world has changed a lot in the last 6 months.

We've had Elon poking around crypto for years now so for him to take a position in bitcoin, it really wasn't that shocking.

However, Mark Cuban has poked around crypto in mostly a different fashion until recently.

I remember hearing him compare bitcoin to beanie babies an a banana stand a few years ago, saying that he's rather have the banana stand than bitcoin because then least he'd have a real asset.

Well, the times sure have changed...

Check out the latest here from him:

He took to Twitter to very clearly point out that bitcoin is better for the planet than the current most popular store of value.

If Elon thinks bitcoin is bad for the planet, he should really look into what gold mining does to the planet, and diamond mining and heck, even his precious lithium mining.

It's all ridiculously destructive.

That's one of the reasons that Elon's comments were so odd.

Bitcoin is better than the alternatives and it's getting better all the time.

Interestingly enough, like I posted earlier, Elon may end up helping propel bitcoin into a greener future.

He won't replace bitcoin but he may end up helping usher in better and cleaner mining practices which would actually be good for the planet.

Either way, it's ironic that the ones banana stand advocate now not only chooses bitcoin, but fights for it publicly.

Bitcoin eventually comes for us all.

Good evening.
Yes, it's a strange thing all this, now Elon Musk who made a lot of money pushing DOGECOIN with his tweets, became a lot more millionaire and with much less effort and time with those twitter ads, now he changes his mind, which also made him a lot of money going short in trading.
And Mark Cuban who despised BTC is now caressing it....
Marketing no more, to earn much more money than they have.
Look, a question: how does the nutbox.mine account work or how do you use it? You can visit

LOL and every one thinks Elon "The Douche" is the genius.

Good info for Me

dude... that has to be playing some game... he's been buying crypto and playing with the market with the tweets... and then probably selling them with a higher price?
