Musk vs. Trump: Billionaire Feud Sends Crypto Markets on a Rollercoaster
Two of the world's most polarizing figures—Elon Musk and Donald Trump—just turned their Twitter feud into a crypto market shakeup. When egos clash, portfolios tremble.
The spat triggered wild swings in Bitcoin and Dogecoin, proving once again that crypto markets thrive on chaos—and that billionaire tantrums are the ultimate trading signals.
Meanwhile, Wall Street 'experts' scrambled to justify the volatility with 'technical analysis' while quietly liquidating their positions. Some things never change.

Why Are Cryptocurrencies Falling?
There seems to be no concrete reason for now. Coinciding with the increased tension between Musk and Trump, we observed a decline in Bitcoin prices. President Trump defended a proposal he is pushing through Congress, which Musk strongly criticized. Publicly opposing this proposal, Trump expressed disappointment in Musk, stating, “I worked hard for him.”
“Elon and I had a great relationship. Will it still be the same? I don’t know. I’m very disappointed in Elon. I helped him a lot.”
Elon Musk, on the other hand, claimed, “Without me, Trump WOULD have lost the election.”
Why, amidst all of this, are cryptocurrencies falling? Perhaps Musk is striking back at Trump by targeting his beloved cryptocurrencies. Alternatively, Tesla might be selling Bitcoin. Or maybe Musk initiates a counter-propaganda effort that causes divisions among Republicans, weakening Trump, who holds the majority in both Houses?
The decline in Tesla stock has reached 9.2%.
Forecasts for Cryptocurrency
While the Trump-Musk spat remains the only negative aspect, despite the positive news from China, there could be other reasons for this rapid decline that may emerge later. Historically, cryptocurrency declines often precede relevant news. Sellers see these declines in advance, closely followed by correlated events.
Currently, negotiations with China have resumed, and the potential signing of a trade agreement with the EU has increased significantly. So, what is motivating the sellers now? With the lack of other significant developments expected before tomorrow’s data release, it’s puzzling.
Could it be that cryptocurrencies are overreacting to this event and staging one of their deceptive declines in preparation for a larger rally? The future remains uncertain, and all we can do is live through it and see what awaits us as it’s impossible to predict at this moment.
