The chronicle that binds Elon Musk and Twitter is definitely not ready to meet its end point. The billionaire has just offered to buy Twitter 100%, and her proposal is causing a lot of talk about her on Twitteras you will see.
elon musk’s offer
Elon Musk just performed a takeover bid for Twitteran offer that values the company at $43.4 billionwhile promising to “release” the full potential of the platform by privatizing it. Elon Musk’s offer, which therefore amounts to $54.20 per sharecomes just days after he refused to join the company’s board, when he had become the majority shareholder.
The entrepreneur announced his offer today (April 14, 2022) in a document filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. In a letter to the company’s board, attached to the document, Musk said he invested in the platform, of which he is an avid user, because he believed in its potential to become “the platform for freedom of expression worldwide”. Elon Musk, however, clarified that he realized that the company could not “neither prosper nor serve this societal imperative in its current form”. He writes thus in conclusion: “Twitter must be transformed into a private company”.
Elon Musk then said his offer was a 54% premium to the day he started investing in the company, and a premium of 38% compared to April 1, three days before its stake becomes public. However, the billionaire hinted that he could withdraw if the case were to fail:
My offer is my best and last offer, and if it is not accepted, I should reconsider my position as a shareholder. Twitter has extraordinary potential. I can unlock it.
Twitter said, for its part, that its board of directors “will carefully review the proposal to determine a course of action that it believes is in the best interests of the company and all Twitter shareholders”. And waiting for the verdict from the administration boardInternet users, half fig half grape, had a blast commenting on the newsas you will be able to see with the following 22 tweets.

Elon Musk is worth $302.1 billion, nearly twice the second richest man. Twitter has a market value of $37.6 Billion.
If Musk bought Twitter, even if the value dropped to $0, he would still be the richest man in the world.
But if he owned Twitter, it would be wildly profitable.
