We know that the world's richest man, Elon Musk, is not only a tech genius, but also a well-known entrepreneur with many companies. But did you know that Musk is also a super gamer?
In his spare time, he often live streams playing games, including 'Elden Ring', 'Overwatch', 'Cyberpunk 2077', 'Diablo 4', 'Path of Exile'... a series of well-known games.
However, some may ask: "Musk is so busy, does he have time to play games?" According to Musk himself, he plays games while on flights using his own Starlink development.
Recently, the well-known old game 'Path of Exile' has released a new work 'Path of Exile 2' after ten years, attracting many new and old players to make pilgrimages. As a gamer, Musk naturally won't miss it.
Netizens discover Musk's 'Elden Ring 2' account suspected of being played by a proxy
However, in the early hours of today, when Musk was live streaming playing 'Path of Exile 2' on X Stream, netizens discovered that Musk seemed to have cheating clues.
Youtuber Quin69TV released a video today, pointing out Musk's abnormal behavior in the game live stream, suspected of cheating. Regarding this, PTT user hh123yaya compiled the doubts pointed out by Quin69TV as follows:
- 1. There is a page in the warehouse called "Elon's map" that looks like it was specially arranged for him to use to farm maps and currency
- 2. He doesn't clear his bag before farming
- 3. He doesn't use any filters
- 4. He doesn't pick up chaos on the ground (he may be too rich to care)
- 5. Strange wording ("4 things")
- 6. Pointing to his overpowered gear with a very strange angle, saying he's bad (just looking at the gear level requirement and not the affixes lmao)
hh123yaya pointed out that from Musk's operation, he has a certain gaming foundation, but given his current progress, it is unlikely that he would have such obvious improper operations and statements. Moreover, Musk is an expert in the "death deletes character" mode. Therefore, hh123yaya believes that "someone may be playing for Musk".
In addition, an anonymous gaming expert told Blockcast that:
Musk said in the live stream that "99% of the characters in the expert mode have been deleted" seems to be emphasizing that he is very skilled, but seeing his game operations, I think many people have helped him play the expert mode, and Musk is just playing a few of the characters.
Furthermore, some netizens also said: "'Path of Exile 2' is a very time-consuming game, Musk shouldn't have so much time", "He should play seriously if he wants to be vigilant, because then he won't have time to work."
Musk's 'Elden Ring' character name becomes a crypto viral meme
On the other hand, on December 31 last year, Musk suddenly changed his X platform avatar to a frog-like Pepe and changed his name to Kekius Maximus, which immediately caused the related meme coins to soar, and the Ethereum-based meme coin KEKIUS even once skyrocketed to a market value of $390 million. However, after Musk changed his name back to Elon Musk, the related memes also fell back.
As for who the original Kekius Maximus is, according to Musk's X post, Kekius Maximus is actually Musk's new character name in the 'Path of Exile' expert mode.
How to ambush Musk's 'name change' meme coin?
After Musk has a precedent of changing his name, how can we ambush the next "name change" meme coin?
Based on the premise that Musk has been playing 'Path of Exile 2' recently, Musk said in today's live stream that he wants to get into the top 10 of the expert leaderboard.
According to the anonymous gaming expert's speculation, this means that the characters after the top 10 of the expert leaderboard may be operated by Musk's proxy training team. For this, we may be able to filter out these character names and find potential candidates that Musk may choose to rename.
