Why Is Elon Musk Getting Sued For Billions?
Share Share Share Share Share

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own.

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, is being sued for over $200 billion.

The plaintiff, Keith Johnson, claims that Musk, along with his companies, “are engaged in a crypto pyramid scheme by way of dogecoin cryptocurrency.”

Johnson alleges Musk illegally promoted dogecoin “falsely and deceptively” as a viable investment, when, in reality, the currency had “no value at all.” Johnson accused Musk and his companies of racketeering by driving up the price of dogecoin while knowing it reflected no value.

At its peak in May 2021, Dogecoin was trading at about 74 cents. As of Thursday afternoon, it’s tumbled to around 5.8 cents.

The lawsuit claims that dogecoin “doesn’t pay interest or dividend,” and claims it has no unique utility “compared to other cryptocurrencies…It’s not secured by a government or private entity.” The complaint goes on to say that Musk used his power and recognition to “operate and manipulate the Dogecoin Pyramid Scheme for profit, exposure and amusement.”

Johnson is asking for $86 billion in damages plus $172 billion for losses incurred trading Dogecoin since 2019. Additionally, the lawsuit insists that Musk and his companies stop promoting the currency.

Musk, whose net worth is about $200 billion, according to Forbes, has yet to respond to the lawsuit. However, in the wake of dropping bitcoin value, Musk tweeted earlier this week “Cryptonight,” as bitcoin fell to its lowest level since 2020.
