Elon Musk shared a photo of his pet Shiba Inu puppy, Floki.

It seems billionaire tech entrepreneur Elon Musk can’t resist the temptation to tweet on cryptocurrencies, especially about his favorite meme-based coins. On Monday, the Tesla CEO tweeted a photo of his pet dog, “Floki,” enjoying the sun on a Tesla car. Mr Musk only said “Floky Frankpuppy” in the caption. Mr Musk has a habit of sharing cryptic tweets, which often fuel the mystery rather than reveal it. The dog shown in the image was the same breed as the popular meme that Dogecoin represents. However, Mr. Musk has not actively supported Dogecoin in recent days.

While a cryptocurrency posted on the Binance smart chain has been named FlokiFrankPuppy, it was unclear whether Mr. Musk referred to it or meant the front trunk of the Tesla car shown in the image. This new image of a Shiba Inu dog riding in a Tesla car could also mean that Mr. Musk is considering accepting payment in Dogecoin or extending his support to a new Shiba Inu coin. But, as is often said of Mr Musk, his tweets hide much more than they reveal.

According to benzinga, the cryptocurrency Floki rose on Sunday – but only briefly. The coin touched an intra-day high of $0.00007509

So, many Twitter users wondered about Mr. Musk’s intentions this time as well.

Among those who commented on the thread was Dogecoin founder Billy Marcus, who goes by the Twitter handle “Shibetoshi Nakamoto”.

Others had fun seeing Musk get back in the game – again.

Last month, Mr. Musk tweeted that “Flokey has arrived.” He also shared a picture of a dog sleeping on the floor. Floki-themed cryptocurrency had risen those days.

A Twitter user asked Mr Musk to share a picture of his puppy in the frank – a trunk located in front of a car.

But for the past few days, it appeared that the SpaceX CEO was focusing on sending humans into space in his Dragon capsule. But that time is over. With his latest tweet, Mr. Musk showed – again – that he is heavily involved with the crypto world.

As much as he is credited with popularizing Dogecoin, he is also to blame for the market crash in April-May this year. It was then that Musk and his electric vehicle maker reversed their position on accepting bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency, as payment over climate concerns. Mr. Musk then began actively promoting Dogecoin on social media, increasing its value.
