Ilon Musk Exposed: Leaks Asmongold's Private Messages After Gamer Backlash

by Alexander May 12,2025

Elon Musk recently found himself at the center of controversy after being accused of using a "booster" service to level up a character to 97 in Path of Exile 2. The accusations surfaced following a detailed 32-minute video by popular streamer Asmongold, who delved into allegations of "cheating" by Musk. The video suggests that Musk may have either purchased a high-level character or employed someone to elevate it in-game, a process that typically demands a significant time investment. This raises questions about how Musk could balance his responsibilities at SpaceX, Tesla, and X while simultaneously dedicating time to such an intensive gaming endeavor.

Further fueling the speculation, viewers noted that during Musk's streams, he appeared unfamiliar with the game's mechanics, which seems inconsistent with someone who has progressed a character from level zero to 97.

Responding to Asmongold's video, Musk took to social media to counter the claims, humorously suggesting that he too "needs to coordinate with the boss." He also implied that Asmongold consults with a team of editors before publishing content on the X network. Asmongold quickly clarified that he does not have a boss and that the editors he works with are part of his team, a common practice among YouTube and Twitch streamers that allows content creators to focus on production rather than post-production tasks.

Asmongold criticized Musk's response, pointing out that it highlighted a lack of understanding about the behind-the-scenes processes of content creation. This exchange has sparked further discussion within the gaming community about the ethics of using booster services and the transparency of high-profile individuals in gaming.
