Elon Musk’s ‘Superfans’ Fail To Catch Tesla CEO’s Attention With Their $600k ‘Elon Goat’ Statue
By Benzinga
Co-founders of the crypto token Elon Goat (CRYPTO: EGT) recently sent a 30-foot, 12,000-pound metal statue of Elon Musk to Tesla Austin headquarters. However, It appears that Musk is not impressed.
What Happened: The statue worth $600,000 depicts Musk's head juxtaposed with a goat's body that is riding a rocket. It also features a dog collar with a Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) token visible around Musk's neck.
We're very proud of our accomplishments and commitment to #EGT
We've always had long term vision for $EGT and will continue to build the brand and utility.
We feel our hard work can lead to Elon claiming #ElonGOAT and we will work towards this goal! Maybe have some fun too! pic.twitter.com/Rk2Gdn5PpE

EGT's founders, who refer to themselves as ‘Elon Superfans,’ said on their website that they were striving to accomplish "something no other crypto venture has ever achieved" to gain legitimacy and recognition for their venture by securing Musk's endorsement.
It seems that the goat monument has not impressed the billionaire. Musk did not acknowledge the statue on his Twitter handle yet.
“It seems Elon is testing us”, EGT said on Twitter.
Price Action: Doge is trading at $0.096, down 1.34% in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro data.
