Elon Musk Faces Lawsuit Over Dogecoin Insider Trading Allegations
Investors in Dogecoin (DOGE) have alleged in a court filing that Tesla CEO Elon Musk engaged in insider trading by manipulating the cryptocurrency's price with his social media activity. The accusations are an extension of a $258 billion class action lawsuit filed in June 2022, claiming that Musk's actions caused significant losses for DOGE holders. The filing accuses Musk of deliberate market manipulation and refers to his public appearances and social media posts that boosted DOGE's price. The lawsuit also claims that Musk and Tesla traded profitably around his intended moves, citing blockchain records as evidence. The case raises questions about whether DOGE should be classified as an unregistered security.
