Twitter CEO Elon Musk disclosed in an interview with Fox News that various U.S. government agencies had full access to everything that was going on on Twitter, including users' DMs. The revelation shocked the crypto community, and some compared it to the illegal government surveillance exposed by Edward Snowden in 2013. Crypto influencer Matt Wallace claimed the U.S. government is almost near to implementing a China-like social credit monitoring system to spy on user activity online. The news caused Bitcoin and Dogecoin prices to fall, with Bitcoin breaking the $30k psychological barrier and falling to a 24-hour low of $29,816, and Dogecoin feeling pressure and falling from a 24-hour high of $0.0915.
