Elon Musk Takes A Stab At SEC After X Account Hack Via A Dogecoin Meme — Jokes 'LFGDogeToTheMoon' Was Regulator's Password
Portfolio Pulse from Mehab Qureshi
Elon Musk humorously responded to the SEC's Twitter account hack with a Dogecoin meme, joking that 'LFGDogeToTheMoon' was the SEC's password. The SEC's account had erroneously tweeted approval of Bitcoin ETFs, which was later corrected. Musk's comment comes after a period of silence on Dogecoin, and despite his statement in December that he doesn't spend much time thinking about cryptocurrencies. Dogecoin's price was slightly down at the time of reporting.
