Recently, an interesting news story has been trending—Elon Musk posted a photo of dinner with Donald Trump. Trump then gave a candid comment: "This guy is 80% a super genius, 20% prone to making reckless moves."

The market is very sensitive to this dinner. Many see it as a clear sign of improved relations between the two. Interestingly, the timing of the dinner coincided with Starlink's announcement to provide free broadband service to Venezuela, and someone is spreading this detail.

From a trading perspective, such moves by major figures often trigger emotional fluctuations. ETH, XRP, and SOL have recently attracted a lot of attention. Especially in the current environment of frequent macro news changes, these kinds of events often influence short-term capital flows and sector enthusiasm.

lol the timing though... starlink announces venezuela bandwidth right when musk is having dinner with trump? mempool's gonna be flooded with this narrative for weeks. 80/20 genius split sounds about right if you ask me—that's literally the fee volatility curve of his decision-making tbh. eth's probably gonna ping-pong on this sentiment alone, watch the gwei patterns tomorrow.

Elon Musk's 20% foolish move is indeed outrageous, but 80% of the geniuses really make a difference. This operation, announced together with Starlink Venezuela broadband, is perfectly timed and well-coordinated. Short-term funds have definitely been attracted, and ETH's recent surge is a bit outrageous. The key is that the current market is too easily influenced by a single statement from the big players, which is a bit surreal. Is the Venezuela free broadband thing true or false? It feels a bit too good to be true. Funds flow just follow the trend; there might be a story behind the recent movements of SOL and XRP.

Elon Musk is really a wild card. The 20% risky move has a pretty high chance... But when it comes to Starlink's free internet, Venezuela probably won't take it lightly.

Haha, this 20% trick is the real essence, Elon Musk is truly magical. The market really responds to this, a single photo of a dinner table can make the price dance... Venezuela's recent moves are indeed meticulous, timing is a bit tight. Can SOL follow the trend this time? Feeling a bit itchy. These two teaming up can really stir up the market. 80 days and only 20 tricks, the net profit is probably a 60% return haha. Is a short-term explosion coming, everyone? Feeling like there's a chance.
