Musk: bitcoin, I'm late.
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, tweeted about "Doge" in a row, which immediately attracted a lot of attention. Doge rose by more than 70% in a day.
At the end of last year, musk made it clear that the future Martian economy might be based on bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Recently, he repeatedly published cryptocurrency related remarks, which made people wonder: is Musk's next journey, or will he point to the cryptocurrency feast?
On February 1, musk tweeted that he would be broadcast live on a voice social platform called clubhouse.
So the club house instantly exploded the social network. In order to get a chance to get in touch with musk, many people asked for an invitation code online, and then an invitation code even went up to $100.
Musk quickly made the app, which was born less than a year ago, from Silicon Valley to the world through just one twitter.
Moreover, musk made it clear in this live broadcast: "bitcoin is a good thing, I am a supporter.I should have bought bitcoin eight years ago. I'm late for this feast. "

Twitter is not only a great place to sell musk, but also a weathervane for many investors.
Entrepreneurial legend: creating payment giant, building private rocket, developing Tesla
Why musk has such a great appeal, this has to tell a story of his legend.
Musk was born in South Africa in 1971 and immigrated to the United States at the age of 18.At the age of 21, musk entered the University of Pennsylvania to study for a master's degree in physics and economics, and then went to Stanford University to study for a doctor's degree.
Just two days later at Stanford University, he dropped out of school and founded the earliest city yellow pages and owned a software company with my brother.
In 1995, musk devoted himself to the Internet boom, and his first venture was a great success, earning 22 million US dollars.
He transferred the money to his next start-up, PayPal, one of the most widely used third-party payment tools in the world.
For ordinary people, being the founder of a world-class company is enough success, but Musk's legend is just beginning.
In June 2002, musk founded SpaceX, an American space exploration technology company, as CEO and CTO. He claimed that he would build private rockets. This idea was ridiculed by people.
Six years later, the world's first privately built rocket was successfully launched by SpaceX Falcon 1. Musk used his own actions to make people face each other.
In the six years of building private rockets, musk has also done two things.
First, invest in Tesla Motors as chairman of the company.
Second, the company co founded a photovoltaic power generation enterprise, taiyangcheng company, with its partners.
In the year when the rocket was successfully launched, the world's first Tesla automobile, which he presided over, was officially born. In the same year, he rewritten the history of world commercial aerospace and automobile development.
From the Internet payment giant PayPal, space exploration launching private rockets, to Tesla in the fields of automobiles and clean energy, behind these star companies, it is the same person who controls the whole situation.
In Musk's universe, he has his own insistence that he will not yield.His next plan is to colonize Mars, a dream that has been increasingly derided.
The other side of iron man
In a few years, musk seems to have accomplished these difficult things that others seem to have done at the same time.
In his website introduction, it is said that "Iron Man" is based on his story, and musk has lived his real life, so he is also known as "iron man on earth".
However, musk has not always been smooth.
When he was a child, his father was irascible and quarreled with his mother all day. He had no time to care about musk. When his parents divorced at the age of 8, he followed his father.
During his time with his father, musk, as an adult, once bitterly recalled: "he has done almost all the evil things you can think of."
On the road of pursuing the dream, the dream of building a rocket was denied by his hero Armstrong just by saying it, and was considered that the plan was absurd and impossible to realize.
The first three rocket launches ended in failure, running out of money. He sold his house and private property and was on the verge of bankruptcy.
Life is not just about work.In addition, he has also made guest appearances in many films and TV series, such as "Iron Man" and "the big bang of life", and there is no lack of news about him in the entertainment news.
But he has always been his own master.
When giving birth to a child, choose the test tube baby directly.He didn't look up to all the schools in the United States, so he built a private school.Almost everyone told him that when it was impossible to build a private rocket, he would follow the first principles.
Among the numerous controversies and comments on musk, people's TA magazine has such an impressive paragraph:
Musk's invention has pulled people out of the progress of the screen of "little skills". People's imagination of the world has entered into the great project of "grand narration". In particular, his "Mars immigration program" has widened the boundary of people's imagination of the world.
