[Elon Musk Becomes the World's First Person with a Net Worth Exceeding $700 Billion] BlockBeats News, December 21: According to the Forbes Billionaires Index, Tesla CEO Elon Musk's net worth surged to $749 billion last Friday evening after the Delaware Supreme Court reinstated Tesla stock options worth $139 billion that had been invalidated last year. Musk's 2018 compensation package, once valued at $56 billion, was deemed 'outrageous' and dismissed by a lower court two years ago. However, the Delaware Supreme Court announced on Friday that the package would be reinstated. The Supreme Court stated that the 2024 ruling to revoke the compensation package was improper and unfair to Musk. Earlier this week, reports suggested that his aerospace startup Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (SpaceX) might be nearing an IPO, which subsequently pushed Musk's net worth past $600 billion, making him the first billionaire globally to achieve this milestone.
