Elon Musk's foray into UK domestic politics once again proves that nothing moves crypto markets like a good old-fashioned non-sequitur. Ethereum saw a gradual slide, down 0.10% after one minute, 0.15% after five, and 0.34% after ten minutes. Dogecoin followed its typical pattern of negligible but negative movement, while the meme coin GORK managed a truly heroic 0.01% gain before succumbing to a 0.38% loss. This volatility, while seemingly minor, is on par with the market's previous reaction to a similar UK-themed post, suggesting a predictable pattern of mild panic at the mere mention of British policy. It appears the market's algorithm for processing geopolitical commentary is simply to sell first and ask what Epping means later.
