Since then, he has been actively tweeting about crypto, seeking information on which cryptocurrencies would make the best investments.
While he claims the conversation between Musk, Wood, and Dorsey was the ultimate push that saw him invest in BTC, Busta Rhymes also got guidance from the likes of Michael Saylor, MicroStrategy’s CEO, who told him that he would get all the information he needs to invest in BTC by visiting hope.com.
