Crypto Industry News:
Elon Musk, the billionaire and head of Tesla, has denied allegations of possession of Dogecoin. A lawsuit is currently underway for market manipulation and stock fraud related to this cryptocurrency.
The founder and CEO of Tesla, and for a short period also the CEO of Twitter, is currently facing a $258 billion lawsuit for allegedly creating a DOGE-based pyramid scheme. The prosecutor claims that Musk was part of a shadowy operation supporting this cryptocurrency.
Musk is accused of selling 1.4 billion DOGE worth over $124 million. Records indicate that two different wallets - allegedly owned by the billionaire - sold these tokens.
Musk's lawyer, Alex Shapiro, denied the allegations. According to the letter obtained by the media, "There is no basis to claim that the said wallets belong to Musk," it reads.
The DOGE group of investors had already changed the lawsuit, accusing Musk of manipulative practices that pumped up the price of the token. Specifically - according to the documents - it is about "transparent manipulation of the cryptocurrency market." It is alleged that Musk took advantage of his impressive number of Twitter followers and an appearance on NBC's "Saturday Night Live".
Musk, who describes himself as "Dogefather" and "CEO of Dogecoin", has never hidden his affinity for the cryptocurrency. He has repeatedly used social media to support the token, resulting in his latest run-ins with the law.
