NFTs are non-fungible tokens embedded in digital art. NFT’s were pioneered by Mike Winkleman, the artist most commonly known as Beeple. Some more Beeple NFT art sold for $69 million in Christie’s auction last week. And Beeple offered Musk the $69 million for the catchy song. Musk turned down the offer and said he needed to be paid 420 million Dogecoin instead.
According to Bloomberg’s Billionaires Index Musk is the richest man in the world today. This is a title he trades off with Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos. Bezos was the richest man when in January 2021 Tesla’s share price dipped. But on Tuesday, Elon Musk pulled ahead again.
