According to Business Insider, Dogecoin co-founder Jackson Palmer posted on Twitter calling billionaire Elon Musk “selfish.” The post was deleted after just one minute but screenshots quickly spread across social media.
Palmer even expressed frustration over Musk’s appearance on SNL, which caused Dogecoin’s price to drop sharply.
These statements shocked the crypto community since Palmer usually stays out of the public eye, working behind the scenes as a product specialist. He co-founded Dogecoin in 2013 with Billy Markus but said he hasn’t been involved in its development for years.
Palmer’s comments came after Tesla’s founder announced he would stop accepting Bitcoin payments over environmental concerns. Following Musk’s announcement, Bitcoin’s price dropped by up to 15%, and Dogecoin also saw major fluctuations.
