Elon Musk to Appoint New Twitter CEO and Cut Jobs
Musk further revealed that he is figuring out new ways to monetize tweets. During his calls with the banks, Musk also highlighted the need for influencers and celebrities to be more active on Twitter. In a tweet in early April, he noted that many of the top accounts rarely post. For instance, Musician Taylor Swift has more than 90 million followers but hasn’t tweeted since January.

While talking to banks, he apparently suggested charging websites to quote or embed a tweet from verified Twitter profiles so the company can make money when they go viral. In a previous tweet, he also suggested cutting the price of the Twitter Blue premium subscription service. However, he deleted the post later on. We all know that Twitter accepted Musk’s offer to buy Twitter for $54.20 per share earlier this week. However, the deal still requires shareholder and regulatory approval.
