Dogecoin memes are out. Fiscal collapse warnings and Bitcoin ideology are in. Elon Musk, the world’s richest shitposter-turned-industrialist, is no longer just dabbling in crypto — he’s inching dangerously close to full-blown Bitcoin maximalism.
And in 2025, that’s not just a vibe. It’s a bet on what money is — and who gets to control it.
Once the poster boy for Dogecoin jokes, Musk is now posting about the collapse of the U.S. economy, unsustainable debt, and Bitcoin as a lifeboat. His repost of Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong’s warning about dollar doom — paired with a *�🇸 emoji — was enough to send the maxi crowd into orbit.
“Interest payments now consume 25% of federal revenue,” Musk wrote. “This trend is unsustainable.”
Translation: The U.S. dollar is looking shaky AF.
Musk isn’t just tweeting:
Until now, most of that looked like speculation. But with the U.S. fiscal system on fire, the ideology is catching up to the portfolio.
Musk’s sudden alignment with Bitcoin’s hardcore thesis feels… intentional. That thesis?
This isn’t just a hedge anymore — it’s a mission.
After his chaotic brush with Washington politics, Musk seems done with governments. Done with “efficiency czar” gigs. Done with trusting centralized anything.
Classic pre-maximalist symptoms. Just ask El Salvador’s Max Keiser, who posted:
“Elon is on the brink of going full Bitcoin maximalist.”
Good question. Musk hasn’t disavowed it — yet. But he’s clearly drawing ideological lines. For Bitcoin maxis, DOGE is just fiat with a meme. Bitcoin is the anti-fiat.
And Elon? He’s starting to sound a lot more like Michael Saylor than a meme lord.
Brace for it:
If Musk tilts from “Bitcoin-curious” to Bitcoin-all-in, the implications go beyond memes — it’s game theory with a balance sheet.
