Elon Musk's tweet grabs XRP community's attention, here's what he tweeted

Elon Musk has once again appeared at the center of attention thanks to his recent tweet, which by now has gained over 170,000 likes and 44.3 million views. This time, the eccentric centibillionaire wrote only one letter, X. The tweet's comments section exploded with thousands of assumptions about the meaning behind Musk's cryptic message, with some suggesting that it is simply the name of the Tesla CEO's youngest son, X AE A-XII, or X for short. @MackAttackXRP, an active member of the XRP community, also commented on what Musk may have meant by sharing the logo of XRP cryptocurrency. However, the head of Twitter has confirmed numerous times that he remains loyal only to Dogecoin meme crypto and never shared his take on XRP in any way.

According to data provided by the Shibburn website, yesterday, the SHIB community managed to destroy 28 million meme tokens.
