Today we all woke up like a bombshell: Elon Musk invests 1.5 Billions in BTC and announces that Tesla cars will be able to be bought with the main cryptocurrency. Immediately our friend bitcoin's price rose to record highs on its way to other numbers that will guide it beyond the moon (maybe to Mars? next goal of the richest man in the world). It is clear that Elon followed Michael Saylor's advice, now he increased the bet as if it were a Poker game where the next card to be discovered is that of Mr. Jeff Bezos, CEO of the almighty Amazon.

With this move Musk sends an indirect message to his rival (or enemy?) Bezos, the once richest man in the world, as if to say: "I will be even richer with something you don't have: BTC", so it is very curious what will be the decision of the owner of the world's largest virtual store of gadgets before the move in the form of cryptocurrencies of the builder of electric cars.

I don't know if Mr. Bezos has realized that if he wants to increase his fortune and reach the new crypto billionaire, he must necessarily apply some methodology that allows him to access BTC and other cryptocurrencies directly on his Amazon web portal or buying them with his tons of fiat money, because as we know, Bezos as one of the masters of the world has direct access to the money printed by the FED and that of many people who buy every day in his store, however, everything indicates that this party of worthless money (Ponzi Scam) is coming to an end and cryptocurrencies become more entrenched the world economic system.

Will Bezos choose to fight BTC and cryptocurrencies or join the ranks of virtual money? The leader of Amazon is very cautious on this issue, he has stated on several occasions that he does not intend to introduce cryptos in the world of Amazon, nor does it seem a great idea to create a cryptocurrency of his own (Facebook case with its Libra / Diem), apparently, he feels very comfortable relying on the currency of "Uncle Sam", but for how long?

While Amazon makes a decision, other important players will join this cryptocurrency party, maybe Apple?, maybe Netflix?; what is certain is that the longer he delays what will surely be inevitable, Mr. Musk will continue to laugh from his general base on the red planet at the indecision of his main competitor in adopting BTC.

And you, if you were a friend of Bezos, what would you advise him?
