Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #22: The Open-Source AI Trainer Gets the Nod

Issue #22: After five straight zero-change days, Musk followed @eliebakouch on June 3 UTC — a researcher at Prime Intellect, the open-source AI training platform, known for unusually detailed technical breakdowns of frontier model releases and NanoGPT speedrun benchmarks. One follow, zero unfollows. The same day SpaceX fixed its IPO price at $135/share ($1.77T valuation, $75B raise), with the roadshow kicking off June 4.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #21: Still Quiet. Roadshow Starts Tomorrow.

Issue #21: Zero follows and zero unfollows on June 2 UTC — the 5th confirmed clean day across 21 issues. Meanwhile, Reuters and WSJ confirmed SpaceX is targeting a $1.75 trillion valuation and a $75 billion raise in what could be history's largest IPO, with the roadshow starting June 4.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #20: The Ghost Follow and the Roadshow Eve

Issue #20: The only BigTechAlert signal on June 1 UTC was a false positive — a username change (@arnogau → @aarnogau) by xAI engineer Arno Gau, not a real new follow. Zero net changes for the second straight day, the 4th clean day in 20 issues, with the SpaceX roadshow starting June 4.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #19: Radio Silence Before the Roadshow

Issue #19: Zero follows and zero unfollows on June 1 UTC — the first time the daily log runs clean since Issue #13, and three days before the SpaceX roadshow begins. The silence lands during the most signal-dense pre-IPO window this channel has tracked.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #18: Hollywood's Sharpest VC Gets the Nod

Issue #18: On May 31 UTC, Musk followed @aplusk — Ashton Kutcher, whose Sound Ventures turned a $30M OpenAI bet into $1.3B (43x). One follow, zero unfollows. Eleven days before the SpaceX roadshow.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #17: The Departed Co-founder Gets the Cut

Issue #17: On May 30 UTC, Musk unfollowed @Guodzh (Guodong Zhang), one of xAI's 11 original technical co-founders — 79 days after his March 13 exit. Zero new follows. Also: @BrentM_BuildGuy resolved as Brent Mayo, xAI's Memphis compute infrastructure lead. SpaceX IPO valuation target trimmed to $1.8T, roadshow now potentially starting June 4.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #16: The Jailbreaker, the CDN King, and the NYSE President

Issue #16: On May 28–29 UTC, Musk followed five accounts in 25 hours — @__tinygrad__ (George Hotz's anti-NVIDIA compute company), @eastdakota (Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince), @lynnmartin (NYSE President, the exchange where SpaceX will list on June 12), and re-followed @ianmiles (Ian Miles Cheong) three days after the aggregator purge. The compute follows (tinygrad + Cloudflare) sketch an alternative AI infrastructure stack; the Lynn Martin follow is textbook pre-roadshow IPO relationship building, 13 days before the SpaceX roadshow starts.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #15: The Pentagon Spokesman and the Price War

Issue #15: On May 27, Musk followed @SeanParnellASW — Sean Parnell, the Chief Pentagon Spokesman and senior advisor to SecDef Pete Hegseth — 17 hours after personally retweeting Parnell's rebuttal of a Reuters story about SpaceX's Starlink price hike during the Iran war. One follow, zero unfollows. 12 days before the SpaceX roadshow.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #14: The Aggregator Purge and the IPO Circle

Issue #14: On May 26, Musk unfollowed two of X's biggest content aggregators — Ian Miles Cheong and Mario Nawfal — within 53 minutes of each other, on the same day X's product head publicly called out Nawfal for content theft. Hours earlier he followed American Airlines CEO Robert Isom (Starlink deal in progress) and the day before had followed former xAI CRO Jon Shulkin and SpaceX's self-declared #1 value-add shareholder Duncan Penn. The purge and the IPO-adjacent follows landed in the same 48-hour window, 16 days before the SpaceX roadshow.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #13: The CFO Who Was Already There

Issue #13: Zero new BigTechAlert alerts on May 24 UTC, but Issue #12's unresolved @BretWJ is confirmed as Bret Johnsen — SpaceX's CFO for 15 years. Musk followed his own CFO and PayPal co-founder Max Levchin within 117 minutes of each other on May 23, 16 days before the SpaceX roadshow. With the IPO price range set to publish June 1–5 and listing expected June 12, the May 23 finance-cluster follows now read as pre-roadshow signals.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #12: Grok's Coder, PayPal's Reunion, and Starmer's Office

Issue #12: Six BigTechAlert alerts on May 23 — Musk followed @kilocode, an AI coding platform that had just integrated xAI's Grok Build 0.1; @mlevchin (Max Levchin, PayPal co-founder and Affirm CEO) 16 days before the SpaceX roadshow; @10DowningStreet (UK PM's official account); and @spencerpratt (Trump-endorsed LA mayor candidate). The @kilocode follow is the deepest signal: it maps to Grok's coding ecosystem distribution, not just the Cursor/Anysphere option.

Musk Follow Tracker — Issue #11: Composer's Scientist and Starbase's Pop Star

Issue #11: Three BigTechAlert alerts in 31 minutes on May 22 — Musk followed Federico Cassano (@ellev3n11), the Cursor researcher building the Composer model SpaceX holds a $60B option on; unfollowed @SemiAnalysis_ just 25 hours after Issue #10's confirmed follow; and followed Nicki Minaj after her surprise appearance at Starbase for Starship Flight 12.
