It may be old news to hipsters who heard it before your blog but it is definitely big news.
It is such a brilliant market to tap into - the nouveau crypto rich! A brand new market to add to the GREEN conscious rather than wrestle dollars from rich folk who already have decades of brand loyalty with their luxury brand of choice. I drive a Benz but would consider a Tesla just on principal and it speaks to the blockchain part of my brain.
Saying Elon can now purchase bitcoin for Teslas is not only funny, it is a bit of an eye opener as well to look at it from that perspective. Though it may not be a seachange in the economics, it is still a defining moment and they are serving as a cheerleader for other corporate suitors.
I love it!
