Tesla reveals zany new job titles with boss Musk basking in crypto highs

Tesla Inc (NASDAQW:TSLA) chief executive Elon Musk will also now take on the job title of ‘Technoking’, the company said in an regulatory filing on Monday. The electric car manaufacturer’s chief financial officer, Zachary Kirkhorn, will also have ‘Master of Coin’ as an extra titular appendage, the SEC announcement revealed. Seemingly not wanting to be left out, there was also a change for president of automotive Jerome Guillen. He will now be president for Tesla heavy trucking, according to a more banal statement released at the same time. Multibillionaire Musk has continued to work hard on his zaniness, last year naming his baby son X Æ A-12 and allowing himself to be videod apparently smoking dope on a chat show appearance in 2018. Tesla did not give details on why the new job titles had been given. Over the weekend, however, the company benefited from last month’s purchase of US$1.5bn of bitcoin, as the price of the popular cryptocurrency climbed to a new all-time high above $61,000. Technoking Musk has also helped boost ‘memecurrency’ dogecoin via his Twitter account, which has also lifted the price of that cryptocurrency. Over the weekend, Musk continued to tweet about the dog-faced crypto, revealing that he was planning to get a Shiba Inu dog, the Japanese mascot of the meme cryptocurrency.
