As a strong advocate of Dogecoin (DOGE) and other Shiba Inu-themed meme coins, his post propelled Dogecoin to an all-time high of 67 cents last May.
Musk tweeted “Dog Daddy on SNL on May 8” and announced that he would be hosting “The Saturday Night Show” as “Dog Daddy.” The tweet rekindled positive investor sentiment towards Dogecoin, the meme-based cryptocurrency quickly surging more than 30%.
In a statement Monday, Musk said that:
“Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated.”
The high profile Tesla boss is often seen tweeting about Dogecoin and these crypto-assets via Twitter.
Musk's Tesla is also one of the largest corporate buyers of Bitcoin, and Musk has hinted at the possibility of continuing to accept Bitcoin payments for its electric automobiles in the near future.
