 MUSK SEE TV=20

What does Elon Musk=E2=80=99s Twitter takeover bid have to do with crypto?

If you=E2=80=99re interested in crypto, you probably pay at least a little =
attention=20
to Elon Musk=E2=80=99s Twitter account. The memes and musings he=E2=80=99s =
shared over the=20
years have helped spark market frenzies and sell-offs alike, which is just =
one=20
reason why his latest move, a bold attempt to take over Twitter, has Crypto=
=20
Twitter completely spellbound =E2=80=94 DOGE (Musk=E2=80=99sfavorite=20

witter-report/>
 10% after Musk=E2=80=99s stake in Twitter was made public. But why else is=
 the crypto=20
industry following this story so closely? Let=E2=80=99s dive in.

 * The saga=20
<https://www.digitaltrends.com/social-media/elon-must-twitter-take-over-chr=
onological-timeline/>
 started on April 4, when Musk disclosed purchasing 9.2% of Twitter=E2=80=
=99s stock.=20
Soon after, Twitter CEO Parag Agrawalannounced=20
<https://twitter.com/paraga/status/1511320953598357505?s=3D20&t=3DactcVR6q9=
kXQIN5Pj8GPCA>
 that Musk would be joining Twitter=E2=80=99s board of directors. Then, a f=

later, Agrawalannounced=20
<https://twitter.com/paraga/status/1513354622466867201?s=3D20&t=3DactcVR6q9=
kXQIN5Pj8GPCA>
 that Muskwouldn=E2=80=99t be joining, and the Tesla CEO offered to buy the=
 social=20
media company outright for $43 billion and take it private. Last week, the=
=20
board implemented a =E2=80=9Cpoison pill=E2=80=9D provision =E2=80=94 desig=
ned to make it too expensive=20
for Musk to buy Twitter by granting shareholders the right to buy more Twit=
ter=20
shares at a discount if Musk increased his stake past 15%.=C2=A0
 * Why does Elon even want Twitter? At least according to his own statement=
s=20
<https://www.wsj.com/articles/what-elon-musk-would-do-with-twitter-11650200=
403>
, he wants to protect Twitter=E2=80=99s role as the =E2=80=9Cde facto town =
square=E2=80=9D of the=20
internet by encouraging =E2=80=9Cfree speech=E2=80=9D and limiting content =
moderation. Another=20

Dorsey. (Open-source code is also key to the decentralized ethos underpinni=

 * The potential for a =E2=80=9Cdecentralized Twitter=E2=80=9D inspired som=

players. FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried mused=20

=E2=80=9Ceasily go very wrong.=E2=80=9D=C2=A0
 * Twitter has already been funding a decentralized social media project=20
called Bluesky, which is building a =E2=80=9Cdecentralized protocol for pub=
lic=20
conversations=E2=80=9D that will allow users to control their relationships=

Why it matters... In the days after Musk=E2=80=99s takeover plans emerged, =
investors=20
were skeptical =E2=80=94 in part because it wasn=E2=80=99t clear how the Te=
sla CEO would=20
finance the purchase. We know this because Twitter=E2=80=99s stock price in=
itially=20
remained stagnant. But by this week, asother potential admirers=20
