While discussing with Twitter employees, Musk refuted claims that he intends to cut jobs by 75%. He added that the employees were cool people he looks forward to working with.
If the $44 billion Twitter takeover pulls off as expected, Elon Musk’s favorite cryptocurrency Dogecoin may have a place in Twitter’s payment method.
