The CEO of SpaceX also asked his followers to help support the Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE), submitting ideas on GitHub and Reddit.

What Else: MicroStrategy Incorporated (NASDAQ:MSTR) CEO Michael Saylor said he hosted the meeting between the North American miners and Musk, adding that executives from multiple crypto compannies also attended the meeting, including Galaxy Digital HoldingsLtd (TSE: GLXY), Argo Blockchain PLC (LON: ARB), Riot Blockchain Inc (NASDAQ: RIOT).

Saylor added they decided to create an organization “to standardize energy reporting, pursue industry ESG goals, & educate+grow the marketplace. (sic)”
