Join Our Telegram channel to stay up to date on breaking news coverage If you are a crypto trader and have been watching the charts, you’d know that Elon Musk’s tweets have had a lot of impact on crypto prices. As an example, when Elon Musk tweeted about accepting Dogecoin (DOGE) for buying Tesla cars, the price of DOGE skyrocketed.

The CEO has been skewered for his tweets about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, especially after he dubbed himself the “Dogefather” at Clubhouse.  Most notably, he also changed his Twitter bio to #bitcoin in January 2021, sending it up as much as 20 per cent before trading was tem

Crypto Stories: John McAfee tells the story of how he first found out about Bitcoin

British-American businessman John McAfee talks about his crypto story and how he discovered BTC. From the Cointelegraph archives, John McAfee tells his crypto story and takes a look back at his very fascinating life. Early in his life, the computer programmer landed a job at the United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration, also known as NASA, and worked on the world’s first weather satellite. There, he learned about computer security and people’s concerns over unauthorized actors gaining access to private data. McAfee also shared that he made all his money not from the popular “McAfee” antivirus software but from other projects. He explained: “People know me from McAfee, but no, that was not my greatest success. That was some trivial thing.

In his whitepaper, he presented Bitcoin as a means of electronic payment that didn’t require centralized banks to operate. This meant that banks would lack the power to seize user funds, censor transactions, or inflate its native currency through money prin
