X gon' take it from you
- Lmaooooo
This just sounds like a desperate attempt to try and turn a profit before Twitter/X finally shits the bed cuz it ran out of money
- I don’t think elon can afford to do that because it would look really bad for his other brands. I think he is better off trying to keep it somewhat alive
“Eat it”

-advertisers, probably
- The mainstream ones yeah. But that void will get filled with shady advertisers. It's gonna look like the daily mail on there lol
  
  Ask any webmaster and they'll confirm just how insistent and willing to pay crypto and betting advertisers are.
  
  Musk already loves crypto and scamming.
  
  Twitter is about to have an amazing time with all ad slots taken up by betting on sports and buying random coins.
  
  Yeah it’s gonna be all scams. Quickest way to ruin an internet website is fill it with scams lol
The only thing that's being "verified" is the credit card number.
X.. Elon.. X Elon.. XElon.. XYlon.. I figured it out guys, he's an evil robot whose creator forgot the I part of AI.
What the fuck is this X thing? Sounds like a shitty version of Twitter, like the one that Trump is always ranting on.
- It literally is twitter. It re-branded this week.
  
  But Twitter is one of the best known brands on the internet. It would be mind-bogglingly stupid to just throw that away.
Need some sarcastic quotes around "X".
- Yeah, gotta figure something out. Can't really do the sarcastic UpPeR cAsE lOWeR cAsE thing with a single letter.
Why do I have the feeling that this is going to go over like a lead balloon?
Advertise to who exactly?! It's a barren wasteland there now.
What's the purpose of the megathread? I'm so confused what's going on with this community...
Threatening advertisers is surely one way to keep them on your platform
