Prior to Donald Trump winning the 2024 presidential election, online sportsbooks were speculating that Elon Musk may have placed a larger wager on the outcome. The following entertainment prop bets are now expired but suggested that Musk personally placed a wager on Trump winning the election.
Which Will Musk Do First?
- To publicly state he bet on Trump -200
- To publicly state the amount of donation to Trump +150
Size Of Musk Bet On Trump?
- Under $10M -150
- $10M or Higher +110
During the lead-up to November 5th, candidates and mega influencers like Musk participated in interviews on popular podcasts and online streaming venues. During an interview on the Joe Rogan podcast, Musk admitted that he was ranked in the global top 20 for the video game Diablo 4.
Diablo IV is an online action role-playing game that attracts over 30 million players per month. Here is a walkthrough video to give readers a better idea of the mechanics and strategy involved.
Following this revelation regarding his ranking, odds for betting on Elon Musk debuted, asking when he would become the world’s top Diablo 4 player.
When Will Elon Musk First Rank Number 1 For Diablo 4?
- Not before May 2025 -800
- January 2025 +1500
- February 2025 +1500
- March 2025 +1500
- April 2025 +1500
- December 2024 +1800
- November 2024 +2000
This Elon Musk prop bet favors an outcome where he doesn’t attain the number one position until May 2025 or after. One of the most important aspects of entertainment gambling is the timeline involved.
While the most favored outcome is after May 2025, the bet is not graded a winner just because that date has passed. Even if Musk becomes the #1 player following that month, it could be years before it happens.

Musk’s claims have been backed up by outside sources. His ranking currently stands at #22, but he was in the top 20 when being interviewed by Rogan. To give readers an idea of how elite this grouping is, only two players in the top 20 are Americans.
For full disclosure, the ranking is for timed runs of Pit 150 – a dungeon run.
Diablo IV is a game where performance can be enhanced by the purchasing of add-ons. There is no evidence of Musk doing so in an overabundance, but it does make one question how he’d have enough time to play video games to achieve such a ranking.
It also fuels the theory that he is a hands-off owner of his enterprises, but there’s not much evidence to support that speculation either.
