Elon Musk Changes Laser Eyes Avatar

Elon Musk's new laser eyes avatar is widely seen as a bullish mainstream meme in the cryptocurrency community. He changed his avatar immediately after the announcement by current U.S. President Joe Biden to withdraw from the 2024 U.S. presidential election.

In fact, rumors of Biden's withdrawal have been circulating since his debate defeat, so the news of his withdrawal did not come as a surprise.

Biden's withdrawal rumors are rife, causing a 20% drop in meme coins like TrumpCoin. Will Kamala Harris become the successor?

Musk Continues to Criticize the Democratic Party

After Biden's withdrawal, Musk appeared to be quite happy and still expressed dissatisfaction with the Democratic Party.

He retweeted a speech by current Vice President Kamala Harris, which included all women at the event introducing themselves as "I am [name], my pronouns are She and Her, I am a woman wearing xxx, sitting at a table."

Musk commented:

Imagine having to endure this for another four years...

However, the community refuted Musk's statement, pointing out that Harris introduced herself in this way because the attendees at the event included many disabled individuals, including the blind.

Laser Eyes Avatar

The laser eyes were originally a meme expressing bullish sentiment and support for Bitcoin. The laser eyes have also been favored by many well-known individuals and institutions, including MicroStrategy's Michael Saylor, U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis, and asset management company Franklin Templeton.

After the approval of a Bitcoin spot ETF in the U.S., Franklin briefly changed its avatar to laser eyes to show support for the crypto space, but it only lasted a few weeks.

Another Simpson Prediction?

Interestingly, the U.S. classic animated series "The Simpsons," known for its accurate predictions, depicted one of the main characters, Lisa Marie Simpson, becoming the first female president of the United States in an episode from 2000. She wore a purple suit with a pearl necklace and earrings, which closely resembled Kamala Harris's outfit on the day of her inauguration.
