Tesla CEO Elon Musk supporters have built a 30-foot-long monument honoring their 'hero.' The $600,000 artwork stands 5 feet 9 inches tall and seems to depict the billionaire's head atop the body of a goat riding a rocket.' Kevin and Michelle Stone, Canadian metal sculptors, created the sculpture out of aluminum.?
Elon GOAT Token ($EGT) conceptualized and commissioned the piece. According to reports, they plan to present Musk with the statue on November 26 at his Tesla headquarters in Austin, Texas.
In a statement, $EGT said,?
"Most people thought we would never do it, but after one year of building, the time has come to bring it home to Elon. We want to meet the guy and give it to him. After all, he is the most innovative human alive, hence the GOAT - Greatest Of All Time."
"We built Elon Musk a $600,000 monument on the back of a semi-trailer in honor of his many accomplishments and commitment to Cryptocurrency," the statement adds.
According to the company's website, $EGT has toured states across the country in the United States and has now chosen to present this gift to Elon at Tesla's Giga plant in Austin.?
Meanwhile, after taking over as Twitter's new CEO, Elon Musk officially launched the pay-for-verification system, which some users are already violating.
The new Twitter Blue subscription includes a blue tick similar to those given to celebrities. The new tick seems the same when a user scrolls through the feed. When users click on the badge, they will discover if it was presented to a notable person or paid for by a Twitter Blue subscription.
