The Richest Man in Technopolis

Hey #Moni Maker ✋

Today, in 2007, the first iPhone was introduced. Eternal thanks to Steve for steering the whole tech sector in the right direction! If he still ran Apple, they would have pre-installed Bitcoin wallets on their products long ago. Well, let's wait — maybe when Bitcoin surpasses Apple in capitalization, Tim will come to his senses... In the meantime, let's take a look at the latest developments in the cryptocurrency universe.

Let’s go!

Elon Musk became the richest man in the world

MONEY!

Founder of Tesla and SpaceX, Elon Musk, surpassed Jeff Bezos in the ranking of the richest people in the world and took first place with a fortune of $190 billion.

Elon reacted to the news with a very modest tweet

Back in early 2020, Elon was at the bottom of the rankings, but over the year, his fortune has grown by $150 billion. Tesla's growth, whose stock has reached the $880 mark, has provided such profits. In just one year, Tesla rose 940%, reaching a market value of $835 billion for the first time.

According to Assetdash, Bitcoin has displaced Facebook from 7th place in terms of capitalization. To surpass Tesla, BTC needs to add another $90 billion.

So what?

Hmm, interesting! How much do you, Mr. Musk, keep in bitcoin? We bet you hold more than 0.25 BTC...

Well, congratulations! We're all happy for you here in CIS!
