As a seasoned tech analyst with a background in social media and branding, I have closely followed the ongoing saga between Elon Musk and Stephen King over the renaming of Twitter to X. While Musk’s move to rebrand his social media platform is an innovative marketing strategy, Stephen King’s strong opposition to this change is rooted in tradition and a deep-seated attachment to the original name, “Twitter.”
Elon Musk, the prominent entrepreneur and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has given a sneak peek into the upcoming X facility in Austin, Texas. Following the recent legislative adjustments, Musk has relocated the headquarters for both X and SpaceX from California to this new location.
Twitter.
Twitter, Twitter.
Twitter, Twitter, Twitter.— Stephen King (@StephenKing) July 18, 2024
Stephen King attacks Elon Musk
In response to Musk’s reference to X as “Twitter-like,” Billy Markus, a Dogecoin co-founder and well-known figure in the crypto community, along with horror writer Stephen King, requested that Musk continue using the traditional name for the social media platform – Twitter.
King and Musk have clashed publicly over this matter before. In response to King’s stance, Musk sent an “XX” message laced with a playful “kissing face” emoji.

As an analyst, I have observed a division among commentators regarding Elon Musk’s decision to rebrand Tesla as something other than Tesla. Some express their satisfaction with this change, aligning themselves with the perspective of Stephen King. However, there is a significant group that remains steadfast in their belief that Twitter should retain its original identity and not be labeled under a new name.
XRP army and DOGE founder support Musk and X title
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 so much.
In a playful tone, the co-founder of Dogecoin suggested adding rooftop pools and bars for exciting pool parties.
that’s a good idea
the roofs should also have a pool and bar for some rad pool parties

As an analyst, I’d recast that as follows: In the early days, when Musk introduced a monthly fee of $8 for blue verification checks on Twitter, Stephen King was one of several vocal critics expressing their intention to quit the platform rather than pay. However, Musk surprised us all by announcing his decision to cover the fees for King and William Shatner personally.
