The founder of Tesla and SpaceX, Elon Musk, lost the first place in the ranking of the richest people on the planet, after the share price of Tesla Inc. decreased by 8.6%. As Bloomberg notes, thus the state of the American entrepreneur decreased by $ 15.2 billion.

Bloomberg notes that the reason for the fall in Tesla shares could be Musk's comment about the price of bitcoin. The businessman in his microblog Twitter previously wrote that he considers the prices of cryptocurrencies-bitcoin and ethereum (Ether) - "high". This opinion was expressed two weeks after Tesla announced the purchase of bitcoins for $ 1.5 billion.

At the auction, the price of bitcoin declined for two days in a row. On Tuesday, the price of bitcoin fell by more than 10% during the trading session. At 08:39 Moscow time, the price of the cryptocurrency was $ 48,604, Interfax reports.

Thus, Elon Musk fell to the second place in the list of the richest people on the planet according to Bloomberg with a fortune of $ 183.4 billion (in January, he was estimated at $ 210 billion). The leader was the founder of Amazon, Jeff Bezos, with a fortune of $ 186.3 billion.
