Dogecoin DOGE/USD co-creator Billy Markus appreciated Tesla IncTSLA+3.34%+ Free Alerts CEO Elon Musk’s reaction to a tweet in which the latter touched upon the poor reputation of cryptocurrencies and people associated with the segment.
What Happened: Markus tweeted that the reason why people think “crypto is 95% scams and garbage and most crypto people are assholes is because crypto is 95% scams and garbage and most crypto people are assholes.”

let’s change that. it starts with you – what you support, and how you behave.
Musk let out a “rolling on the floor laughing” emoji in response to Markus’ tweet. The DOGE co-creator called Musk’s reaction “most correct.”
^ this is probably the most correct reaction ?

When a Twitter user pointed out that he invented DOGE and he is calling “95% of crypto is scams & garbage,” Markus said, “doge was literally made as satire because crypto is 95% scams and garbage.”

apparently that went over your head.
Markus recently took a jab at Terra (LUNA) co-creator Do Kwon and blamed the recent cryptocurrency crash on “tech bro hubris” and “degenerate gamblers.”
