Elon Musk changes X profile picture back to original, drops 'laser eyes'

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has changed his profile picture on X back to his original image, dropping the "laser eyes" that had become a symbol of his support for Bitcoin. Musk had changed his profile picture to laser eyes in February, after Joe Biden, the US President, announced his withdrawal from the Democratic presidential nomination. Laser eyes are a meme expressing support for Bitcoin, and Musk has been a vocal proponent of the cryptocurrency in the past. However, it is unclear why Musk has now decided to change his profile picture back to his original image. Some speculate that he may be distancing himself from Bitcoin, while others believe that he is simply tired of the meme. Whatever the reason, Musk's change of profile picture has sparked discussion on social media, with some users praising him for his commitment to Bitcoin and others criticizing him for his volatility.
