Elon Musk makes offer to buy Twitter

[Kadal Ijo]

A good idea if this is realized, it's time for Twitter to make big changes, the second largest number of users should make Twitter able to get big profits but a few years they report losses and the presence of Elon Musk is a good solution.

I hope that Elon Musk's plan for the acquisition of Twitter will soon be achieved, I've been actively using Twitter since 2009 and I find Twitter's features very boring, and the big thing I hope is that I can accept cryptocurrencies so that it makes it easier for users to pay for ads.

elon musk will bring alot changes if he succeed acquire twitter,and maybe by this more adoption could applied again in twitter. maybe dego could be coin that accept positive impact of this. we know elon musk was revolutioner person with his idea in business space, i am believe he could bring crazy idea that would attact more user using twitter.

The news about Elon Musk wanting to buy Twitter was absolutely horrendous,
sometimes things like that seem beyond our minds but if we talk about Elon Musk where he has everything of course what he does makes sense,
if it's true that Elon Musk managed to buy twitter whether it will have a positive or negative impact I don't know but I'm sure changes will happen

Elon Musk has made the right decision by buying Twitter shares and proposing to pay for Twitter ads with Dogecoin. Twitter has great potential and so many users that the potential profit is huge. If Elon Musk becomes the owner of Twitter, maybe Dogecoin will be popular among Twitter users in the future.

Elon is good solution of what. If Elon tweet is because is looking for profit and not that is the solution for anything else. And if you found it tweet as benefit to cryptocurrency. Can you elucidate why is the solution. Elon is a threat to bitcoin because all it information of bitcoin is what concern's bringing down the values. And it those that when it has plans to make profit

I don't trust Elon, he is a smart and mischievous person who has the financial power to achieve anything he desires. He feels being a shareholder does not give him the power to control and manipulate so he offers to buy it off the owner.
I can already imagine what twitter will be like when Elon happens to be the new owner, Dogecoin will be heavily promoted through that platform, he will change everything. I hope the twitter ceo will be smart enough to decline.

We can't also control what fate will be for twitter if the price that Musk will offer the owner and the majority of the shareholders, we might wake up one morning he already own twitter and we will see his dog(doge) being widely promoted. As you said, he has that manipulating power using his huge trucks of money. We can't tell if twitter owners and the rest will be able to stand and continue to keep their holdings. The pressures are on them and how they will play this game with Musk's attempts to own the platform.

i can't understand how you can say that this is good news and a big change on twitter...Even though i'm not active on Twitter, i'm sure Elon only wants to market the dogecoin when he controls 100% of Twitter.  Twitter will only crash because of Elon's control:D

Just because Elon buys a company, doesn't mean he will do something amazing. I get that people are expecting a lot from him because of the companies he owns and the weird personality he has, but at the end of the day he didn't really "achieved" anything himself, it was always people around him or people before him.

His first company? Merged with another successful company before being bought out and he was kicked at that point, tesla? Built way before he bought it, spacex? Dude has zero engineering education. So, twitter is just a social media where maybe he could actually do something, it is really uncanny how much people idolize him while he does absolutely nothing himself.

Until now Elon Musk still holds 9.2 percent of Twitter shares, Elon Musk is also looking for a way to buy the Twitter company, maybe with the amount of finance he has, he can buy what he wants, but the problem is whether Twitter is willing to sell the company to Elon musk, but according to the media I read Twitter is not willing to release Twitter to Elon Musk, because the Twitter board last week did everything possible, so that Elon Musk could not increase his shares, now Elon Musk is determined to buy Twitter and he wants twitter to be fully belongs to him, we have to wait whether Elon Musk managed to buy the Twitter company or not??

Apparently the board hasn't met on this.  Elon secured $45+bil from himself and Morgan Stanly to buy out the rest of the shares at around a $41bil value.  I haven't read too far in but appamtly they set in a poison pill so elon can't hostile take it over.  He can still keep buying chunks of shares from the public but don't know how much of a dent he could do that way.  Interesting to watch this all play out.  Dude is out of his mind lol.

The fact his the man behind the idea of building SpaceX is already something, not all businessmen were able to do it not even NASA alone before. It takes a leader before something can happen.  He can buy companies he wants provided the owner will allow him or he will be able to gather more shares. Sure he will do this to gain more access in social media but preferably for himself, businesses or for his crypto investments.

There is a problem with that statement.

As per the existing laws, he can purchase any company he wants, as long as the existing owners are OK with it. But what is happening now is a sham. The Twitter executive board holds around 0.12% of the total shares (apart from Dorsey, who holds slightly more). Now the situation is like this - Elon wants to purchase Twitter. The Twitter owners are OK with this idea. But a few people (who are not the owners) don't want this to happen. I would like to see how the courts take a decision on this matter. At first sight, it looks like a clear violation of existing laws from the board members.

I think it’s fantastic news that Elon Musk made an offer to buy Twitter. Social Media has proved quite dangerous to our democracy, psychological health and social cohesion this past decade. I think some of the root causes are centered around there being far too few social media companies in the market and not enough healthy competition. Furthermore, these companies are all being guided solely by free market capitalism. The incentives are just too great under business obsessed management, concerned only with the bottom line, to take into account the negative consequences of their actions. I think Elon’s plan to take Twitter private is the best way to bring some remnant of ethical consideration to the business without having to deal with stakeholder pressure or answer to government regulators.

That's the power of money.
Elon is the prime example for obsession of money. He won't stop working, he won't stop producing, and he won't stop beating his own net worth record.
Twitter is one of the biggest social media platform and we all know he has some plans not only for what he stated about unlocking  extraordinary potentials of the platform, but of course for his own personal agenda.
We have to remember he used Twitter as the primary platform to manipulate crypto.

Elon Musk really can do everything and it certainly can not be separated thanks to his wealth that exceeds the limit,
I don't know what is being planned regarding wanting to buy Twitter,
Let's just follow the news and see what happens next

[Rasa nanas]

no wonder because twitter is the most influential social media platform in the crypto world, and Elon really wants to rule the crypto world. but reportedly Elon's wish could not be realized because there was a prince from Arabia who refused to sell his Twitter shares to Elon. At least from this problem Elon learned some important lessons, namely not everything can be bought with money and something big (crypto) cannot be controlled or dictated by one person.

Elon could afford to but Twitter but he will just use this platform to manipulate more coins just like what he did to Dogecoin which is actually not too effective now because people have learned about his real motive. It's a good thing that shareholders aren't selling their shares to Elon. That simply means that he couldn't take everything that he could afford.

I will be happy if the shareholders don't sell their shares to Elon. Elon has so much social influence and only his tweet makes a huge impact in the world of crypto. If he owns twitter, he will definitely use it to manipulate the market and enrich himself more. I am not trying to be jealous of him, but he should concentrate in his tesla, spaceX. If he wants to diversify, he should do so without letting others suffer. No one should try to spoil this crypto we are enjoying.

[BIT-BENDER]

Although Elon musk has shown so much regards for doge coin and when ever he Talks about Crypto-Currency he mostly channel it to Dogecoin but at this point let’s not be quick to judge him, am not a fan of billionaires or influencers manipulating Crypto-Currency to Favour themselves, but if Elon musk plan is to create more avenues for twitter to accepting payments in Bitcoin then I think it’s what waiting to see how it materializes.

This is exactly what he did with Tesla as well and he knows it works. He wasn't the founder of Tesla as many people believe, he was just a minor investor when he first got in, but it was like a concept rather than an actual car company, it was nowhere near the hype that it has right now.

What he did was the company needed more and more money to keep going, because it failed to produce at mass during early days, so it failed to build the car, which resulted with him eventually buying ti as a whole. Here in twitter he is doing the same thing, he bought a small share, and will eventually buy more and more, or he will just buy it as a whole.

Even he's the wealthiest person in the world, he can't buy everything. Whoever does refuse selling his share of Twitter, it's okay. As long as Elon got the most share in the company.
He's still going to be able to own it but what's the news after this potential buy of him? Did it progressed and has any update on this story? There's still a process within the boards and executives of Twitter if they will all agree to hand it over to him.

Elon hasn't reacted after the poison pill proposal from the Twitter Board. Given how intelligent he is, I am sure he will come up with a perfect counter-strategy. BTW, Twitter share price has gone up by almost 30% in the last 4 weeks. But even then, the market cap of the company is far below what Elon offered. In his last official statement, Elon said that he has accumulated around $46.5 in debt and equity financing, for the purpose of Twitter takeover. This is higher than the offer of $43 billion that he made two weeks ago.
