Tesla accepted Bitcoin in big part as an investment vehicle/place to park money, and there's few fast, cheap, energy-efficient cryptocurrencies that you can put $1.5B in. Hell, Stellar's market cap was what? $5B total at the time?

Musk, separately from Tesla plays with Doge. As far as I know Tesla hasn't accepted or invested in Doge.



Surely he had a say in that decision, assuming that he wasn't behind it himself. So to him and/or his board, it should have been an obvious faux pas; it might as well have been an investment in coal mining stock.
