It was only in early February that Elon Musk revealed in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that electric carmaker Tesla had purchased $1.5 billion worth of Bitcoin and plans to accept BTC as a form of payment. As Musk announced via Twitter an hour ago, Musk is now making good on that promise.
The company's entire fleet Model S, Model Y, Model 3 and Model X can now be purchased using Bitcoin. Musk also announced that Tesla is using "only internal and open source software" and is "directly operating a Bitcoin node." Thus, Tesla joins the global network of peer-to-peer operators that host and synchronize the Bitcoin blockchain.
