Investing in cryptocurrency is basically a pyramid scheme: the ones at the top make a fortune, and the rest get shafted.
Musk et al publicly invested a lot, which pushed the price up, so more bought seeing quick profit. And when they think it's got as high as it can, the big fish sell and rake in the cash, causing the price to crash back down - losing money for everyone else.
Remember: bitcoin and it's fellows have no "intrinsic value" - no currency really does anymore, but most are grounded more or less to a countries economy - the "value" of cryptocurrency is what people will pay for it rather than what it can buy ...

As usual, the rumors for Tesla's inevitable collapse are highly exaugurated. People with a lot of money are usually quite smart. And currently they believe in Tesla, not in old farts like BMW. Crypto currency fluctuation are not going to change that.

Oh yeah? What was it that got Musk his first fortune? His idea for PayPal that came from his...........brain.

Momentum. Other newer, cheaper EV models, with more mileage.
They're no longer the only game in town.

There's only one BEV on the horizon that has a longer range than any Tesla, and that's the Lucid Air. A couple of them are in the low 300 mile range and the rest are below 300 miles. None of these BEVs are less expensive than the Model 3, which is in production today. Finally, Tesla is in final design phases for a sub-$25,000 BEV to be produced in their Shanghai plant. Specs on this Tesla haven't been published so range information isn't available.
Disclaimer: I don't own a Tesla or any TSLA stock.

And what?!? I own Chevy Bolt from two years now. Don't see Tesla going belly up because of my almost 300 ml. range Chevy.

What do you like to do when you need to relax? I'm so exhausted

relaxation is an illusion that certain humans are able to produce in their minds.
it really does not exist in the material/physical world.

Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and with luck you won't see the bugger for weeks ...
A friend of mine was warning me of a Valentines day scam: he ordered a load of really expensive jewellery for his wife but when it arrived it was fishing tackle ...

I just think "shutdown /s /t 0".

Shutdown everything for 10 minutes (PC, TV, phone, wife/husband/kids/dogs/cats ... )
Sit on a real chair (not couch) and just close your eyes and introspect.
I know it sound silly, but it works.
No need to go over 10 minutes.
I do that often when I need to relax.
I'd rather be phishing!

Those 10 minutes tend to turn into 90+ for me.
