Musk’s tweet pondered a profound question: “How many times did you die trying to beat hatred before winning?”. This thought-provoking message quickly garnered responses from influential figures in the cryptocurrency realm, including Dogecoin co-founder Billy Markus (Shibetoshi Nakamoto on social media), Safepal Wallet, and prominent XRP community influencer @XRPcryptowolf, among others.
With an astounding 159.7 million followers, Musk’s influence on Twitter (now rebranded as the X app) is unparalleled, establishing him as the most followed individual and the de facto owner of the platform. Every tweet, whether a meme or a message, allows him to engage a vast and captivated audience.
Amidst the fervour generated by Elon Musk’s recent tweets, a storm had brewed within the XRP community on the X platform following the suspension of the Digital Asset Investor.XRP account. The executive chair and chief technical officer of X faced sharp criticism for this action, prompting a direct inquiry from Crypto Eri, a respected figure in the cryptocurrency realm, seeking clarification about the account suspension. Digital Asset Investor.XRP had gained recognition for its unwavering advocacy of XRP, the digital asset native to the XRP Ledger blockchain.
Crypto Eri, undeterred by suggestions that the suspension was a preventive action, staunchly asserted her belief that the account’s suspension was unjust. She expressed her frustration, stating,
I have been doing my part to stick to the facts. Even when I’m called the crypto police or part of the cancel culture. That’s not been fun. I have empathy because he built his whole channel around using the X platform.
While XRP has maintained a devoted group of supporters who remain optimistic about its future, the suspension of Digital Asset Investor.XRP has raised concerns within the community. Some individuals defended Musk, suggesting that the suspension was a precautionary measure against potential scammers. However, the absence of an official response from X officials has fueled speculation and skepticism.
