Tech mogul, CEO of Tesla and X owner Elon Musk has teased the new building for X in Austin, Texas, where the tech billionaire has transitioned the headquarters for both X and SpaceX from California in light of recent changes to legislation.
Stephen King attacks Elon Musk
While the crypto community, including Musk’s pen pal Billy Markus (who is a Dogecoin cofounder and is known on X as Shibetoshi Nakamoto), the legendary horror writer Stephen King responded to Musk and insisted on calling the social media platform by the old name – Twitter.
This is not the first time that King has disagreed with Musk on this issue publicly. Musk responded to King with an “XX” message and added a “face throwing a kiss” emoji.
The responses of commentators then split into those who are happy about Musk rebranding the company to X and those who still firmly believe that Twitter must remain Twitter and not be called anything else. These "X" users sided with Stephen King.

The new headquarters building literally has an “X” shape. Some XRP users responded that the new logo of the social media giant resembles the XRP logo.
The Dogecoin cofounder, in his usual half-joking manner, tweeted: “That’s a good idea. The roofs should also have a pool and bar for some rad pool parties.”
Initially, when Musk only started charging $8 per month for blue verification checks, Stephen King was among those who stated that he would rather leave Twitter (back then, that name was still used) than pay. Musk then tweeted that he would pay for King and William Shatner, the legendary actor famous for his role as commander James T. Kirk in the iconic Star Trek show.
