MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor says his casual Twitter exchange with Elon Musk in December prompted Tesla to buy bitcoin.

By SHALINI NAGARAJAN

  • Michael Saylor said his Twitter exchange with Elon Musk might have influenced Tesla’s bitcoin bet.
  • Saylor, the MicroStrategy CEO, told Time that Tesla’s decision was an inflection point for bitcoin.
  • Saylor said it wasn’t “appropriate business decorum” to discuss conversations with another CEO.

Elon Musk’s Twitter dialogue with MicroStrategy’s CEO, Michael Saylor, influenced Tesla’s decision to invest $1.5 billion in bitcoin, Saylor said in a recent interview with Time magazine.

Late last year, in response to a tweet from Musk with a lewd meme about bitcoin, Saylor said he should do Tesla’s shareholders a “$100 billion favor” by converting the company’s balance sheet from dollars to bitcoin. “Other firms on the S&P 500 would follow your lead & in time it would grow to become a $1 trillion favor,” he said.

Musk asked whether such large transactions were possible. Saylor replied that they were and that he was willing to share his playbook with the Tesla boss.

A little over a month later, Tesla revealed its biggest bitcoin endorsement to date. It announced that it would invest $1.5 billion in the world’s most popular cryptocurrency and soon accept crypto payments for its products. The automaker used the crypto exchange Coinbase to make its bitcoin purchase, according to The Block.

Saylor called Tesla’s move an “inflection point,” adding that the narrative about belief in bitcoin quickly changed from skepticism to growing acceptance. He said that while it wasn’t “appropriate business decorum” to comment on conversations with a CEO of another public company, their Twitter exchange likely affected Tesla’s decision.
