Kimbal Musk stated Tesla had no clue how buying bitcoins would affect the environment According to a member of the company's board of directors, Elon Musk's brother, the top managers were really ignorant. They felt that cryptocurrencies were a good way to preserve assets, so Tesla allowed customers to buy cars with them.
However,
after criticism from eco-activists, the company abandoned any
bitcoin transactions. The manufacturer intends to resume paying with crypto as soon as mining moves to more sustainable energy.
