In 1984, when he was 13 years old, Elon Musk began coding and created a video game called “Blastar.” The game required players to control spaceships, armed with five lives, as they navigated through a dangerous space filled with alien freighters, hydrogen bombs, and menacing status beam machines.

In 2024, a group of HEX enthusiasts have decided to honor Elon Musk and the creation that launched his career by creating $BLAST.
