Many in the crypto world rejoiced when Elon Musk took over Twitter last week, as the Dogecoin fanatic’s tweets and leaked texts pointed to deeper blockchain integration within the social media platform. DOGE even doubled in price in the days that followed. But crypto may not be as big of a priority for Musk’s Twitter as some hoped, based on new reporting.
On October 24, just prior to Musk’s acquisition of Twitter, noted tech leaker Jane Manchun Wong tweeted that the company was working on a “wallet prototype” that would support deposits and withdrawals of cryptocurrency. Wong is well-known for sharing reputable leaks from Twitter and other tech platforms that frequently have proven correct.
