It all started with a like.”
This sentence, which shocked the crypto world, may have started a new chapter in the complicated relationship between #ElonMusk and Bitcoin.

🔥 The Spark: A Single Tweet, A Single Like
A crypto analyst from Bitcoin Magazine made the following striking post on X (formerly Twitter):
"THE RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD, WORTH $400 BILLION, LIKED A POST ABOUT HIM SECRETLY BUYING BITCOIN! ELON MUSK IS BUYING #BTC ! 🚀"
In the post in question, Musk's silence on Bitcoin, despite his frequent criticism of the US government's excessive spending and economic mismanagement, was striking. A comment under it said, "Maybe he's secretly saving Bitcoin."
And that's where all hell broke loose...
Elon Musk liked this comment.
Yes, the richest man in the world liked a post about buying Bitcoin from his own official and verified account. It was initially thought to be fake. However, a user named @coinjoined shared a screenshot proving that the like was real. Although there was no official statement from Musk, Crypto Twitter went up in flames.

This like didn't come out of nowhere. There's a big political debate going on between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. At the center of the incident is Trump's massive spending plan called the "Big Beautiful Bill." plan:
Billions of dollars in tax cuts,
Mass deportation policies,
Contains items such as a debt ceiling of $5 trillion.
Musk criticized this bill with harsh words:
“A disgusting disgrace!”
Trump counterattacked:
“Musk cannot survive without government subsidies. He will go back and settle in South Africa.”
All these developments have questioned Musk's trust in the American economy. In this environment, it is not surprising that he is turning to a decentralized and government-free asset like Bitcoin.
