It Was Fun for a While, But Elon Musk Denies Theory He Created Bitcoin
And he did so in true Elon Musk fashion.
In case you believe that Elon Musk invented Bitcoin, the world-changing cryptocurrency that today is approaching a value of $10,000, it’s time to put the brakes on your Roadster.

But, Musk apparently didn’t want to let this rumor percolate. He took to Twitter Monday night to debunk the conspiracy.
