Meanwhile, not everyone is impressed with the billionaire’s tweets that have ranged from pumping the dogecoin token to supporting Wallstreetbets traders.

Some analysts have accused Musk of deliberately tweeting about certain stocks and crypto assets for his and his friends’ benefit. Consequently, others want now regulators to get involved after alleging that Musk’s market-moving tweets are hurting ‘the little guy.’ Some Twitter users believe this is what may have prompted Musk, one of the world’s richest person, to announce that he was going off Twitter.

However, since ending his brief self-imposed exile from Twitter, Musk has talked up the dogecoin in at least five tweets. On Twitter, some users thanked Musk for helping them profit the token while others asked if he could do the same for other tokens. Still, others like one Twitter user, Poison joked that he had incurred losses “because I listened to you man.”
