🔥💥Elon Musk's April Fool's Day Disney Tweet Triggers Hilarious Reaction from #Crypto Community
Musk trolls #Disney CEO
In the X post, #elonMusk , a forty-millionaire known for opposing the current position of Disney, Netflix and other influential business giants, whom he called woke, tweeted that he had taken the post of DEI chief at Disney and that Dei stands for “diversity, equality and inclusion"."I can't wait to work with Bob Iger and Kathleen Kennedy to make their content more vigilant!" he added.
Kathleen Kennedy is the president of Lucasfilm, which is currently owned by Disney. The latest film "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Fate" is their last collaboration. Musk's tweets often seem to heavily criticize his policies, claiming that this is a new type of discrimination against people with traditional values and opinions.
This tweet from Musk got the crypto community on the ground when they decided to support the joke and started posting memes and responses in the same spirit, trolling Disney and Netflix for their positions on social policies.
Last year, Musk had a confrontation with Disney CEO Bob Iger, and the latter withdrew Disney ads from Twitter / X. Elon Musk has made it clear to CNBC that he will not allow Iger or anyone else to blackmail him with money or advertising. He noted that those who do not want to advertise on X do not have to, and basically tell them clearly where to go. In this context, Elon Musk's April Fool's joke sounds quite sharp.
Musk, Grok AI 1.5 is coming soon
Last week, tech mogul Musk posted a tweet in which he announced the development of a new iteration of the AI chatbot Grok by Musk's new venture called xAİ.
Musk stated that Grok 1.5 will be released on the X platform this week for Premium + users as before. He also added that as soon as the Grok 2 version is released, “it should surpass the current artificial intelligence in all metrics."" Currently, according to the tweet, the new version of the AI bot is being trained.

Recap: Last Week's Crypto and Web3 Highlights Unveiled!
1. Clarification from US official: Crypto's role in Hamas attacks minimal.
2. Aptos enters crypto phone market with $99 JamboPhone.
3. Changpeng Zhao's sentencing postponed to April; possible jail time: 12-18 months.
4. Disney & Epic Games collaborate on $1.5 billion metaverse project.
5. Australian cop accused of stealing $4.2 million Bitcoin from 2019 drug raid charges.
A week has passed, and once again, the crypto world has unfolded a series of noteworthy events. While this week saw fewer security breaches compared to previous ones, it introduced a new contender in the crypto-phone arena, a forthcoming $1.5 billion metaverse venture involving Disney and Epic Games, updates on the Binance/CZ case, and a peculiar incident involving a police officer accused of pilfering 81 Bitcoins during a drug dealer raid.
Let's delve into some of the key highlights from the past week.
1. Crypto's Limited Role in Hamas Terrorism Financing Debunked
Contrary to widespread beliefs, crypto's involvement in terrorism financing, particularly in the case of Hamas attacks from 2023, was found to be minimal. Testifying before the House Financial Services Committee, the US Treasury's Undersecretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence, Brian Nelson, revealed that terrorist groups still prefer traditional financial avenues, and the reported amounts of crypto received were significantly lower than initially stated.
2. Aptos Joins Crypto-Phone Market with $99 JamboPhone
Following in the footsteps of Solana, Aptos has entered the crypto-phone scene by partnering with Jambo Technology to launch the JamboPhone. Priced at $99, this budget-friendly smartphone integrates crypto and Web3 access, targeting regions with limited Web3 accessibility, such as Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America.
3. Changpeng Zhao's Sentencing Postponed to April
Changpeng Zhao, former Binance CEO, who pleaded guilty to money laundering allegations, agreed to pay a $50 million fine, forfeit $4.3 billion, and step down from his role. Originally scheduled for February 23, 2024, Zhao's criminal sentencing has been rescheduled to April 30, 2024, with potential imprisonment between 12 to 18 months, as prosecutors seek a harsher sentence.
4. Disney and Epic Games Collaborate on $1.5 Billion Metaverse
In a significant move, Disney and Epic Games have joined forces to invest $1.5 billion in building a metaverse. Disney's extensive intellectual properties will combine with Fortnite's user base, creating an immersive metaverse that integrates Disney's franchises like Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar into Epic Games products, enhancing user experiences in gaming, education, and e-commerce.
5. Australian Police Officer Indicted for Bitcoin Theft
An Australian Federal Police officer, William Wheatley, faces theft charges for allegedly stealing 81.616 Bitcoin from a Trezor hardware wallet during a 2019 drug dealer raid. Despite the Bitcoin's value soaring to approximately $4.2 million, Wheatley maintains his innocence, preparing to defend against charges related to theft, money laundering, and misuse of his public office.
