PANews reported on April 17 that according to a report by Silicon Valley NEWS of Cailianshe, foreign media reported that Tiffany Fong, a cryptocurrency influencer, gained Musk's attention during the reporting of the collapse of the FTX exchange. As Fong posted more content supporting Trump, Musk's interaction with her began to increase, and he followed her last summer. As part of the creator's revenue sharing plan, during the period of the most frequent interaction between the two in November last year, Fong earned $21,000 in traffic share in two weeks.

Around that time, Musk, who had never met her, sent a private message to Fong asking if she would be interested in having children for him. Fong declined and shared the request with others. Musk then accused her of being indiscreet and unfollowed her.
