Elon Musk makes offer to buy Twitter

[Bttzed03]

~ Personally I am glad that my posts won't be censored anymore.

This is also what I'm hoping for. Some groups (human rights and left-wings) are already afraid of the hate speech or disinformation that would happen in the platform after the takeover but they just have to suck it up or leave and stick to facebook where they could still control the narrative.

Some people I know are already planning to move to twitter when they found out about this news. They probably got tired of the continuous ban/restrictions in facebook.


Did this acquisition also caused the rebound in BTC and DOGE price? It appears so.

Elon Musk strikes deal to buy Twitter for $44bn

https://www.bbc.com/news/business-61222470

The board of Twitter has agreed to a $44bn (£34.5bn) takeover offer from the billionaire Elon Musk. Mr Musk, who made the shock bid less than two weeks ago, said Twitter had "tremendous potential" that he would unlock. He also called for a series of changes from relaxing its content restrictions to eradicating fake accounts. The firm initially rebuffed Mr Musk's bid, but it will now ask shareholders to vote to approve the deal.

From the beginning itself, I knew that the Twitter board will not be able to turn down the offer from Musk. The share price went up by more than 30% ever since Musk made the bid. But even at this point, it is below the level which Musk has agreed upon. Personally I am glad that my posts won't be censored anymore. Left-wing lunatics had an absolute control of Twitter over the years, censoring anyone whom they don't agree with. My own Twitter account went with multiple rounds of bans and warnings.

Everything has a price, it seems the board of Twitter can't resist Elon Musk's offer that is so high. Hopefully Elon Musk keeps his promise that
after buying Twitter he will give freedom of speech to all users. So all of us as Twitter users are not afraid of getting banned and warned
if we express sensitive opinions that many people don't like. Because I was already annoyed using Facebook which began to limit my opinion
on certain things. Another positive thing is that Elon Musk will use Twitter to promote cryptocurrency, so I expect more and more people to join
the crypto industry. In order to make the price of Bitcoin go up again, because I believe buying Twitter has something to do with cryptocurrencies too.
I'm quite curious to see the big changes Twitter when Elon Musk is officially the owner of Twitter, because we know Elon Musk's style is usually
quite aggressive in making changes.

I am both Facebook and Twitter user, but Facebook never limited me in sharing my opinion (I got only banned bad group admins, but that is different case) How did it limit you?

Why do you think Elon Musk has bough Twitter to promote cryptocurrency? As far as I know, he does not own much crypto (compared to his fiat wealth and wealth of other billionaires). I think he will be more focused on promoting his Tesla, SpaceX and Neurolink.

Wow, could not believe it until I saw the news, the money is so huge to reject such offer, $44billion Damn! Nice move, great investment Musk all the way. Twitter is important for free speech and Elon Musk’s buying it is a win for this critical right. Most billionaires buy yachts and farmland or whatever. elonmusk puts his money toward helping humanity and it is greatly appreciated. Excited for the positive changes Now the true potentials of Twitter will be unleashed.

Like two days ago, Elon Musk in an interview says Twitter ads be better to be paid in bitcoin. Elon Musk has 82.4 million shares of Twitter which is 10.3% of Twitter. Recently he wants more of Twitter and wants to buy Twitter.

Tesla boss Elon Musk has offered to buy Twitter, saying he is the right person to "unlock" the social media platform's "extraordinary potential".

In a surprise announcement, Mr Musk said he would pay $54.20 a share for Twitter, valuing it at about $40bn. It recently emerged that Mr Musk was Twitter's biggest shareholder after he built up a large stake in the firm. He said that if his offer was not accepted: "I would need to reconsider my position as a shareholder".

We all know how deceitful Elon Musk can be, all he cares about is doge coin, not bitcoin, even doge coin rose when he bought shares on Twitter, he is only looking for ways to make doge popular and this can be effective if he owns Twitter. I believe he will fail because Twitter is never like Facebook and will never be like Facebook. His aim will only be towards making doge the dominant coin Twitter will be accepting just as he did with Tesla after his bitcoin criticism which he was wrong about but just wanted to fool people.

Recently, I've read in an article that indeed, Elon Musk is planning to buy twitter for worth 44 billion dollars. I bet this is all because he wants to promote cryptocurrency, particularly dogecoin in that platform. Being a billionaire that he is, he can spend any amount on almost anything that he wants. If he would want to, he can even make another platform. But I bet he won't do that because his goal is to influence those existing twitter users about crypto.

Perhaps he's thinking that he could somehow manipulate the decision and influence people to patronize specific coins to his own benefit. Whatever his reasons are, we are yet to know once these all fall into place. I believe Twitter is thinking so much about Elon's offer because it's really high. Hopefully, the freedom of speech will be maintained on the same level despite the possible turn over of it to Musk.

Yes, I agree with you too. Elon Musk assessment is 100 percent right. Keep up the good work. Elon Musk's used to do unique and become breaking news. He is a powerful person and intelligent person and personally I'm admire his decision. It took him $44 billion to free speech. Let's see how much free speech he will allow. It's all rely on him if his mindset is good then the stage can turn out to be awesome or nice platform.

So Elon Musk is the freedom fighter of internet and he spend 44 Billion dollars to bring freedom of speech? He has own reasons to invest such a huge amount and personally I beleive from now on we can see too much of tweets from him regarding investments which will confuse and collapse lot of investments and he really trying to be the biggest manipulator of this planet.

That might be the real reason behind, he tested that influence from crypto maybe he wanted to bring that same manipulation with a much wider trading venue, with much deeper control with this social platform he can create something that can collapse a business, not far to happen since that thing was done with Doge before.

Or maybe it will be another side, he may bring his power to build more trust from more investor in joining the crypto business,
whatever the reason behind, we will see that in the near future.

Now he is the owner of twitter he buys it 44B I think I see this news on social media after buy this DOGE coin is pumping hard.

Is it data that he could use to improve the lives of more people? I am not really a fan of Elon Musk, but his inventions and innovations are great and, as you can see, they are really helpful to us (only if we can afford to buy them, like Tesla cars, Starlink, or his space craft), but as you can see, they have a big impact on the environment and all people will benefit from it. We dont know what he will be doing with Twitter but i am hoping there are new innovations to it that make us use it more because it is helpful to us.

[Bitcoin2009]

Creative ideas and large capital make Elon Musk worthy of buying Twitter, I'm sure after Elon Musk buys Twitter, there will be many surprises that will make users like Twitter even more and of course make the future of cryptocurrencies better.

Tesla its good but not the greatest in my opinion because the reality behind is not eco-friendly,the power needed to charge all the batteries of Tesla is still coming from burning the natural resources and starlink or his Mars spacecraft is for his business not to make the lives better so the intention behind Twitter also his business tactics not to make anyone's life better.

We will soon find out why this purchase was made. I hope this reflects well on bitcoin. Elon Musk is a rich man. He can buy whatever he wants and Twitter is an example of this. Now he can regulate the incoming information and create the world of his dreams. This world can be anything - kind, beautiful, without war and violence, and vice versa. We will soon find out.

Frankly, nobody needs to be a billionaire and these people should be taxed like hell. The capitalist system is the best we have got and driving innovation does need to be rewarded, however there need to be limits. Every billionaire currently in existence could easily live multiple lifetimes in sheer opulence with less than 10% of their wealth. That wealth often sits around doing little else but making them rich, or allowing them to buy things like twitter so they can manipulate free speech and public opinion. Elon owning Tesla does nothing for the average person out there and is likely to be even more oppressive than it was when previously owned by many shareholders who were unlikely to want big changes on a whim. Elon owning such a big platform with his erratic and manipulative nature it is extremely dangerous.

Yeap, its official.
https://www.gsmarena.com/its_official_elon_musk_just_bought_twitter_for_44_billion-news-54074.php

Dont know on what would be his plans but as reading out this is talking about
wanting Twitter to adhere more closely to the principles of free speech,
Snipped on here.

[kawetsriyanto]

So now what does Elon want to do? Promote his doge till it hit 1$ or his intention is really to make a decentralized Twitter? He says opposite comments will be respected by not controlling people's posts and comments. But this will make Twitter a place of hatred if hate speech will not be managed.

We still don't know what Elon Musk plans after he bought Twitter.
But even though he promoted Dogecoin constantly, people won't easily believe in him. Except, Elon Musk makes Dogecoin to be a crucial part in Twitter. People are familiar enough with Dogecoin, everyone knows it is a meme coin only. $1 for the Doge price seems hard to achieve if there will be no strong reason to pump it massively.

Make a decentralized Twitter?
What does it mean?
I don't really understand this idea. I think everyone is free to make any tweet, no force or pressure on any Twitter member.

Elon is a businessman, and the reason why he purchased Twitter is to make even more profit out of it. If you compare Twitter with other social media platforms such as Facebook, you can notice that the market cap and net profits are only a tiny fraction of what is expected. Hopefully Elon will be able to monetize various avenues in Twitter and generate more profit. And who knows, he maybe able to expand the user base and make the platform even larger than it's competitors. And more importantly, he will be able to make Twitter a politically neutral platform.

[Mauser]

Was a nice move by Elon Musk to buy Twitter. Paying 44bn USD for it isn't even 20% of his networth and since he likes to hold a lot of his money in liquid assets it shouldn't hurt him much. I am wondering why so many people are against this acquisition. Elon Musk is an active twitter user himself, if he has a new vision for twitter why not give him a chance? It seems all the left wing activities are afraid to lose power on twitter. But Elon already stated he wants to promote freedom of speech on twitter. So we might see a wider spread of different opinion and users can argue against each other. In the end it comes down to the readers to remain critical and not believe everything they read online.
