To be honest, I couldn't care less about what tesla or Elon Musk will do in this regard.
I suppose that if it accepts payments again it will be in the news and maybe it will have some influence on the price but I don't think it will be anything like the first time when it announced that it not only accepted payment in bitcoin, but that it was also going to buy for its reserves.
On the other hand, does anyone believe that even if bitcoin payments are accepted, many Teslas will be bought that way? I don't think so. Even if I had bitcoins to spare, I wouldn't do it.
For the company(Tesla) to decide to put some of the reserve cash into bitcoins shows that the cycle of the board members are having an interest in bitcoin and for this, they decide to make bitcoin an additional option for Tesla car purchases but you know, bitcoin has been a state of confusion with some governments officials, seeing the energy used in mining is going to get them into trouble and possibility of been fine, that's why they decide to drop it, Tesla wouldn't have change mind if bitcoin is an already accepted currency worldwide even if what they said is true.
Have you been to a Gold mining site? don't you see how these guys used dynamite to spoil environments, they also used mercury and cyanide in gold mining operations which are very harmful to the environment but do governments discusses this? No! They wouldn't because that's their place of interest.
At the bolded, Whats the point of holding Bitcoin forever, there are some holders who were privileged to hold bitcoins right from when it was around some scents and a dollar and they are still holding, if today anyone needs a car and they don't have the means to buy but they have millions in bitcoin, what's the big deal to spare some dollars to buy a car for your self. It's good o have a feeling of what it is to be a holder, not to hold forever and die for nothing.
