Tesla CEO Elon Musk has sent a series of lewd tweets that have skyrocketed the price of certain cryptocurrencies used to trade adult content.
The U.S. economy specialist Diplomat Benzinga reported that Musk's tweet caused the price of a cryptocurrency called 'Comrocket' to soar by more than 350%.
Benzinga pointed out that "Musk's tweet was interpreted to mean that Comrocket is going to skyrocket in the cryptocurrency market."
The British daily The Independent also reported that Musk sent the price of an adult-themed cryptocurrency to the moon in an explicit tweet.
Comrocket is said to be aimed at creating a platform where users can buy, sell, exchange and collect adult content over the age of 18.
