If someone were to offer you a billion dollars in exchange for changing your name for an entire year, would you do it? Probably yes, but wait till you hear the catch. What if the name sounds similar to dick’, what about then, would you still change it? Well, X (formerly Twitter) owner Elon Musk is back in the headlines and the reason is yet again bizarre but intriguing. Musk, furthering his feud with Wikipedia's co-founder Jimmy Wales, has forwarded an interesting offer. Talking to his social media handle, the billionaire offered to give USD 1 Billion to Wikipedia to change its name for an entire year. However, the catch is in the name, as the name that Elon wants Wikipedia to go for is- Dickipedia. As soon as X owner’s yet another contentious post made it online, people flooded it with their reactions, where some found it funny and others found it offensive. The controversial offer came months after Wales took a dig at Musk for caving into the demands of Turkey and called out the businessman for redistricting ‘free speech’ over Turkey's presidential elections. 

The post was shared on Elon Musk’s official X handle, and read, “I will give them a billion dollars if they change their name to Dickipedia.”

The post was shared yesterday and already pulled a whopping 10.7M views from netizens.
