When Elon Musk walked into Twitter headquarters carrying a kitchen sink, most saw an eccentric billionaire's publicity stunt. What we've uncovered is something far more calculated: the first move in what may be the largest coordinated market manipulation in history.
Our investigation reveals how a $25 billion loss at Twitter/X sets the stage for an unprecedented scheme to profit from cryptocurrency markets using presidential power itself.
The numbers tell the story:When Bitcoin traded at $70,000 before Trump's election, Musk was already holding billions in crypto through Tesla and SpaceX. Tesla alone had 10,000 Bitcoin. SpaceX another 8,000. Then came Trump's election victory, and within a week, the price jumped $20,000.
But December 5th marked the real turning point. Trump names David Sacks - Musk's old PayPal ally - as America's first Crypto Czar. That same day, he launches World Liberty Financial, perfectly positioned to profit from his own policy announcements. Within hours, he unveils plans for a "strategic national bitcoin stockpile." By mid-December, Bitcoin hits $108,000.
The profit mechanism is breathtaking in its simplicity:Through Tesla and SpaceX alone, Musk sees gains of over $600 million. Trump, through World Liberty Financial and his 78.75 million shares in Trump Media & Technology Group, profits from every policy announcement he makes. Each presidential declaration drives crypto prices higher, and each surge increases their personal wealth.
This isn't just market manipulation. This is using presidential power to create personal profit.
But this is just Part 1.
