A massive silver statue of a goat with Elon Musk’s head was delivered to a Tesla factory in Texas this week. The delivery – and the statue itself – poses the question: Who would create such a thing? And why?
The statue, named the Elon GOAT Monument, was created by $EGT, a cryptocurrency token named after Elon Musk, a billionaire businessman known for his involvement in Tesla, SpaceX and, most recently, Twitter, according to the token’s website. The founders of $EGT admired Musk whom they refer to as the GOAT, meaning the Greatest Of All Time.
