Try for free Since Elon Musk acquired Twitter in October of last year for a modest $44 billion, he has terminated approximately 80% of its staff and introduced controversial changes to the platform, leading to frustration among users. In 2022, we compiled some of these changes and presented a retrospective on Telegram NumberTwitter’s controversial year. About a month ago, he announced limitations on the number of posts and DMs within the platform, primarily targeting users without the blue verification mark. However, this time, after a mysterious series of tweets on Sunday night, the 23rd, Musk revealed on his own social network that Twitter is rebranding as “X.” He then unveiled the new logo, featuring a black and white “X” instead of the old blue bird. Reasons And Motivations Behind Twitter’s Rebranding Elon Musk has been talking about his intention to create what he calls an “everything app” for quite some time now. When he acquired Twitter, he tweeted (can we still say “tweeted” for that time period?) from his account: “Buying Twitter is an accelerant to creating X, the everything app.” He was proposing something similar to the Chinese WeChat, where users can not only find entertainment but also make purchases and conduct other financial transactions.
