Silence on Crypto: Musk and Trump Sidestep Hot Topic in Interview

- Advertisement -
  • Elon Musk and Donald Trump did not discuss cryptocurrencies at all in their interview, even though both are deeply entrenched in the field.
  • This avoidance might be a deliberate choice to focus on more broadly accepted issues in the lead-up to elections.

In a recent and highly anticipated online discussion between Elon Musk and Donald Trump, broadcast live on the platform X (formerly Twitter), the burning issue of cryptocurrencies was completely omitted. This decision came as a surprise, as both personalities are known for their connections and influence in the crypto world. Particularly Musk, who played a key role in popularizing digital currencies and allegedly owns up to 20% of Dogecoin, left this important topic unmentioned.

Crypto and DDoS: A Surprising Duality of Defense

During the interview, watched by 8 million people, Musk and Trump discussed a variety of topics such as inflation, the American economy, and international politics. Remarkably, however, the topic of crypto remained untouched despite its high relevance and recent conflicts between the SEC and the crypto industry. This discrepancy between the expected and actual discussion topics led to speculation about the possible reasons for their decision.

One of the highlights of the conversation was the discussion of a potential “Commission for Government Efficiency,” for which Musk offered his active participation. This focus on governance and political efficiency instead of digital currencies could indicate that both Musk and Trump are aiming to appeal to a broader electorate by addressing issues that are seen as traditionally important and less polarizing.

In addition to the political and economic discussions, the X platform was hit by a massive DDoS attack just before the interview. This highlights the vulnerabilities of digital infrastructures, a topic that would have been relevant given Musk’s involvement in the tech world and the crypto industry. Yet, even this pertinent topic of cybersecurity was not brought up in the conversation.

The deliberate avoidance of the topic of cryptocurrencies in the interview by the two influential figures leaves many questions unanswered. It raises the question of whether this caution is a sign of a new strategic direction or simply a distraction from more pressing political priorities for the upcoming 2024 election. This approach could be a tactic to avoid risks in a volatile political and economic climate. Musk and Trump seem to be playing a game that reflects both their individual and collective interests, leaving observers to only speculate for now.
