Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who will head the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in the Donald Trump administration, made a reference to Bitcoin to US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen due to a recent Chinese hacking incident. Musk's post came as the investigation into the alleged Chinese hack of the US Treasury Department continues earlier this month. New reports into the investigation have claimed that Chinese hackers gained access to US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen's computer in the breach. In response to these latest reports, Elon Musk commented on his X account: “Maybe he clicked on the 'Send me 1 BTC, I'll send you 2 BTC' email.” Musk, known for his support of Dogecoin, humorously commented that Janet Yellen may have fallen for an email scam where hackers asked for 1 Bitcoin in exchange for sending 2 Bitcoin back.
