Retired CEO of Dogecoin and incumbent CEO of Tesla Motors Elon Musk is selling almost all of his physical possessions, but TRON founder and CEO of BitTorrent, Justin Sun wants him to buy Bitcoin.
Yesterday, Elon Musk declared he would be selling his physical properties and won’t have any house at the end of the day.
I am selling almost all physical possessions. Will own no house.

The founder of Tesla and SpaceX however said his girlfriend, Claire Elise Boucher, a Canadian musician who has been in a relationship with Elon Musk since 2018, opposed to the move.
Meanwhile, entrepreneur Justin Sun suggested that Elon Musk buy some Bitcoin after liquidating his physical possessions.
Buy #Bitcoin 🚀

Tesla’s Musk has been romancing the cryptocurrency space for some time now. The entrepreneur once trolled Ethereum and its co-founder, Vitalik Buterin.
On a faithful morning, Musk tweeted the word “Ethereum” but shortly after said he was joking.

At some point in time, some faceless scammers on Twitter disguised as Elon Musk, urging people to deposit some funds in return for Ethereum. The action by those scammers also made Musk tell Vitalik Buterin to stop “giving away free ETH.”
Stop giving away free ETH! 🤣🤣

At some point in time, Musk did say he holds some Bitcoin. He said he has 0.25 BTC, forwarded to him by a friend, saying the technology is “brilliant.”
As well, Elon Musk had wittingly claimed to be the CEO of the meme coin Dogecoin. He changed his profile to reflect that he was the CEO of Dogecoin, and shortly afterwards, he removed the profile narration, saying he had retired.
