Ilon Musk 'leaked' Asmongold streamer's private messages after being exposed by gamers

Elon Musk Responds to Path of Exile 2 "Boosting" Allegations

Following accusations of using a "boosting" service to reach level 97 with a character in Path of Exile 2, Elon Musk shared private messages with popular streamer Asmongold.

The controversy ignited after Asmongold released a 32-minute video addressing claims that Musk cheated, either by purchasing a high-level character or employing someone to level it for him. The video highlighted the immense time commitment required to reach level 97, questioning how Musk could manage his responsibilities at SpaceX, Tesla, and X while simultaneously dedicating the necessary hours to in-game progression. Further fueling speculation, viewers noted Musk's apparent lack of familiarity with the game during his streams, a stark contrast to the expertise expected from someone who allegedly boosted a character to level 97.

Musk responded to Asmongold's video, claiming he too "needs to coordinate with the boss" and suggesting Asmongold requires a team of editors for X posts. Asmongold countered that he is his own boss and his editors are his employees, a common practice among Twitch and YouTube streamers to streamline content creation.

Asmongold interpreted Musk's comment as revealing a lack of understanding regarding the behind-the-scenes processes involved in content creation. The exchange highlights the ongoing debate surrounding the allegations and the differing perspectives on the time commitment and skill involved in reaching high levels in Path of Exile 2.
