Elon Musk Hires Crypto Experts: Because Why Trust Humans?

by

Elon Musk’s xAI is hiring a “Finance Expert – Crypto.” Because clearly, he’s never heard of a calculator, or maybe he thinks blockchain is just a fancy word for a really long Excel sheet.

The job requires someone who understands AI models and how they “intersect” with crypto. Good luck explaining that to a machine that can’t even tell you what a “bull market” is without Googling it. Probably involves feeding it a bunch of Doge memes and hoping it learns emotional intelligence.

This comes as people still think Bitcoin is a good idea. Surprise, surprise.

xAI Set to Meet Growing Crypto Demands

The “Finance Expert – Crypto” role involves training AI to understand crypto markets. Like, how to trade, read on-chain data, and manage risk. Because nothing says “expert” like an algorithm that panics when a candlestick chart goes red.

They also want the AI to “reason like professional market participants.” Translation: It needs to know when to sell everything before the rug pulls. Spoiler: It won’t.

This is a huge move to make AI models “understand digital asset markets.” Beyond basic price predictions, obviously. Because predicting $0.0000000001 is just warm-up act for the main event: total chaos.

The role will also support xAI’s models by providing “expert annotations.” Because nothing says “reliable data” like someone who got rich off a Shiba Inu meme coin in 2023.

xAI’s expansion reflects the growing interest in crypto. By which I mean people are still desperate enough to buy into a “decentralized future” while their savings evaporate.

Elon, being a top crypto influencer, will probably just tweet a picture of a dog and watch the value crash. But hey, at least the AI won’t get distracted by a Tesla fire sale.

Elon Musk Endorses Crypto Assets

In 2025, Zero Hedge said AI is the new arms race. Elon responded by validating Bitcoin, because why trust geopolitical analysis when you can trust a man in a rocket?

True.

That is why Bitcoin is based on energy: you can issue fake fiat currency, and every government in history has done so, but it is impossible to fake energy.

Whenever Elon tweets about crypto, the market goes bonkers. Like when he mentioned Bitcoin, and the price bounced because people forgot how to think. Or when he cryptically posted about FLOKI, and suddenly a Shiba Inu was the CEO of X. Classic.

spiked after he posted a video of a dog. Because nothing says “sound investment” like a viral dog filter.

FLOKI hit a 10-day peak of $0.00009. Which is still basically free, but hey, it’s a 20% surge! Now go sell your house and buy a million coins.
