Elon Musk shot Bitcoin singlehandedly direction moon. He has become the embodiment of the Hyper Influencer. A sneeze from Elon causes a planetary financial ripple effect.

We have passed the question of whether it’s a bad or a good thing that the U.S National Treasury prints money at the hyper speed of small businesses closing.
