Didn't know
"Who here remembers the story of a bank called X.com? It was a tiny, little-known online bank, until it was hacked and covered in the mainstream press during the first dot-com boom. Its popularity absolutely soared after the hack. I actually had an account on X.com, but if you didn't and never heard of it, you may perhaps have heard of X.com's founder, a fellow who goes by the name of Elon Musk."
