There are rumors of Elon musk wanting to turn twitter to be profitable for influencers that they can monetize their tweets and videos on the platforms and if this was to happen that means twitter will become profitable for Elon musk as well. He has rebranded the logo, added payment for verification and this is just the beginning of what Elon musk has in plans for twitter. He's also going to make twitter belike WeChat where we can send and receive payments.

When Elon musk is done rebranding twitter, it's going to have similar stock rise as Facebook is experiencing. I think Mark Zuckerberg knows what Elon musk is working on with twitter that's why he launched his recent social media app called Thread to compete with Elon musk.
Monetization is similar to what YouTube is doing. But then, how can tweets compete with videos in YouTube? I am still confused regarding how Elon is going to turn Twitter into a profitable venture. Unlike the case with YouTube and Facebook, Twitter is not that suitable for monetization. Most of the users spend only a few seconds to read each tweet, and you can't insert advertisements in between. One option is to do that for the Twitter videos. But Twitter is primarily for micro-blogging and videos are not that popular in that platform.
They can compete by being smaller amount. Videos have ads, and usually people use adblockers, and twitter has ads too, but they need to be seen somehow. So if I go to your twitter profile, and see an ad there, you get a cut of it, maybe very small, but if you have tens of thousands of people see it, that becomes something, and if I check a tweet of yours, and look at replies, and see an ad there, that's also profit for you as well.

Maybe the numbers are not similar, but that is how people make money from ads on their profile. Usually you check what the account is about, and then you give ads according to that, which makes it more inclined for people to click on it. I have seen it work, not a big deal yet, but could be in the future.

I feel like Threads is like side-app to Instagram so its popularity will go down but it won't completely die because there are many Instagram users out there already. On the other hand, Twitter is basically dead now. We don't have Twitter anymore, its getting something completely different. Its hard to guess what's going to happen with new twitter "X" but I feel like Elon Musk will be successful again and his plan with X is gonna be very popular.

You have a point here. And the two platforms, X formerly known as Twitter and Threads have different elements if you actually go and use both of them. Threads works more like Reddit where people are encouraged to have a discussion hence the name Threads, the only similarity it has with X is the UI. X, on the other hand, is more like Facebook where it can be more personal and doesn't rely much on engagement with others.

Fundamentally speaking, it is not about the competition of this company to others. It is all about the usage and its purpose. Especially on the companies online like Twitter, as long as it serves its purpose anything is possible relative to its stock price.

Most of the users spend only a few seconds to read each tweet, and you can't insert advertisements in between. One option is to do that for the Twitter videos. But Twitter is primarily for micro-blogging and videos are not that popular in that platform.
I thought X Twitter would turn into a platform like Tik Tok or something. Apart from changing the appearance of micro-blogging to a platform that can share videos of long duration and can be monetized, it is possible that in the near future Twitter will be able to do live streaming for users as well.

Next, I think Twitter will completely change its form to become an E-Commers Platform like Tik Tok, and that is very likely to happen because one of the platforms that is very trendy and has a complete feature for its users today is Tik Tok.

Well... but, "X" has everything you are mentioning, all of that exists on the platform, even pioneers of everything you mention, hence, that Tiktoc , so, they are the ones that  copied them, the only relevant thing in tiktoc was that they brought the videos vertical to dominance over Horizontal videos, everything else already existed on other platforms.

Making a horizontal video is not as easy as the vertical one, at least in its final result and tiktoc offered this, that is the great advantage that it took from its main adversaries, Telegram and YouTube.

On the other hand, what "X" is looking for is "reengineering" and what a brand that wants to get out of the stagnation it has should do, since that social network does not grow but they do maintain a reliable following of around 500 million..."botox".

In other words, Twitter is injecting "botox".  Smiley

I saw his tweet recently, and he said something special is coming. Although many people feel disappointed and unhappy when the blue bird symbol is no longer available and replaced by the "X" logo. But I believe the shareholders of this social network will not care about that, what they care about is what Elon will do next to make them profitable and that is also what many people are expecting from Elon.

Many say he killed Twitter, which is true because he rebranded, but what the social network will look like in the future is still an exciting thing to see. I think it's too early to say anything as we all know Elon is a top businessman. Let's see what he will do.
Honestly, I was expecting something special to happen when he first took over, but things actually got a negative turn soon after that, the value of the company started going down, and so did the percentage of ad sales revenue, and it looked like the company is going towards a disaster, and now, this rebranding thing, naming the platform X all of a sudden without any prior information or anything, leaving everyone totally surprised and shocked.

A lot of us are really hoping that what he is thinking actually turns out to be good and doesn't make the users that remained with the platform run away and giving Thread by Meta and Mark more success since a lot of people will probably move there or simply start looking for another platform.

Around these questions, there are only a few almost certain statements and one of them is: Mr. Musk has murdered Twitter, and the mastermind of META is not looking for more than to take advantage of this.. "Trheads" is the best evidence of what was previously mentioned, unfortunately, as mentioned above, it seems more like an instagram clone with another interface than a true alternative to twitter, in my opinion social networks as culturally iconic as these that positioned themselves both at a popularity and billing for their initial concepts are not necessarily tools that need massive updates, however, the owner of TESLA also seems to disagree with this idea and progressively has been taking more and more of its essence from twitter ( now x). I do not hink that there will be alternative tools with similar concepts that really manage to attract the users clinging to these platforms, however, a "fresh" concept may attract new generational masses... The only sure thing here is that the decisions of the main contributor to ideas like Starlink this time were far from being assertive and of course there will be those who want to take advantage of this in one way or another..

The app that Mark Zuckerberg brought to the market called Thread became very popular among people.Thread was created by completely copying Twitter. Mark Zuckerberg brought this app to the market at the right time, the exact time when Elon Musk announced that there will be an opportunity to verify the Twitter account for some amount of money Mark Zuckerberg brought this app called Thread to the market. As soon as this app is launched in the market, a huge number of people download and signup for this app. Whereas it took almost three weeks for Instagram to get one million downloads, one million downloads were completed in just one day on Thread app. All things considered, maybe people will use this app along with Twitter.

But Guys why we still talk about twitter stock when twitter is delisted by the exchange I just quick do google search and the site said

In late October 2022, the company was purchased by Elon Musk for $43billion US dollars, and the company was subsequently removed from public trading on November 8th, 2022. Each individual share was paid out at $53.70 prior to delisting.

It is currently like that, they have recently closed it for public trading. However, it should be noted that possibility of a rise in twitter or x stock can happen if Elon Musk or the board decides to open it again for public trading. As of now, it is unclear what Elon is planning to do next after the huge rebrand of the platform.

I think it won't happen in the near time because the first time, he bought he decided to go private and buy each individual share and already paid out.

Or maybe Elon still have a bunch of money and not gonna decide to go public again near soon. Because that Only Tesla that Public right?

Most likely, yes. It will take some time for it to happen. It is honestly up to how Twitter or X performs in the next few months given the changes that happened. A lot of investors will even have to ask if it is worth it to invest in that platform or not, again based on the performance the platform will showcase in the next few months.

It makes one wonder why Elon Musk changed the name of Twitter to X.  Is this based on his old company name or a new strategy by Elon Musk to overcome new  social media Threads? And while it is true that Musk is a shrewd businessman, it is highly questionable how effective his tactics will be. People sold their shares in Twitter causing Twitter's value to drop significantly in the stock market.  I think it will take a long time to recover because Threads are now a big obstacle for them
IMHO, that's part of what he's saying about his vision with Twitter as an all-app that includes everything. This is a rebranding that's happening and it doesn't look good for now.

But who knows if people are going to like it eventually with the additional features that they may add in the future. AFAIK, that's going to include more like integrated exchanges, digital bank, shopping feature, etc.

Just after Elon took over Twitter, it didn't looked good anymore but there's still the usebase that has been using it for years.

         And what's wrong with the fact that after the purchase, Musk decided to recapture his money? Is he the only one doing this? This is a rhetorical question. Yes, let him make paid services for influential people and companies. Such is the capitalist world. Nothing should be given for nothing. Everything has to be paid for. At the current time, a person gives away his priceless time or money.
    Twitter shares will show theirs yet. I have no doubt that the growth will be good and the shareholders will receive their profit. Here is my old prediction:

Didn't anyone notice that the OP wrote backwards? Replace Instagram with Twitter and you'll see what the OP really meant.
Threads was an exact copy of Twitter. Why would people leave the popular app they used for a long time and switch to a new app to do the same thing? Only in the first days, people downloaded the app out of curiosity and logged in with their already existing Instagram account. It's normal for the number of active users to drop now.
It doesn't make much sense for Elon Musk to create an Instagram-like app or integrate it into X. You have to give people a reason to embrace something new. Revenue sharing would certainly be a good incentive.
These companies have too much power in their hands. It wouldn't surprise me if they made such investments though. I would rather increase my Bitcoin amount than buy Twitter stocks.

Yes, they are actually in transition period. It is expected to have some issues but I know it will resolve soon, I am just wondering why he made the Twitter logo as "X" is he trying to rebrand Twitter? but all in all what I hate in new feature of Twitter I can't send message if someone doesn't following me, sometimes I am sending messages to our telecommunication company if we don't have internet but because of that I can't do it anymore.

It is challenging to speculate why Elon Musk changed the logo of twitter, but I think he has something bigger in his mind that might entirely reshape the social media landscape. The redesigned logo, featuring X, hints at a new social media platform with potential for extensive communication and integrated financial transactions capabilities. It is exciting to wait and see what developments will unfold in this regard.

do you think it would achieve the same level of success in terms of user base and Stocks considering Elon's controversial history with Twitter?
If he's already lost so much from Twitter, is it possible that anyone would trust him to buy stock in a company that's already practically a failure? of course investors will think again about doing it so Elon Musk will focus more on trying to improve Twitter than following Mark's steps by launching a new application, and it seems that Elon cannot compete with Mark in terms of social media because Mark looks more skilled at developing successful social media applications compared to Elon, who is said to have suffered huge losses since he took over twitter.

I agree with you. Mark is showing that he has nearly perfected the formula for social media platforms development. Soon enough Threads will be the next big thing as it connected to literally one, if not the biggest, platform right now which is Instagram. Once users starts seeing that the changes from X is still not as good as they wanted it to be people will go for Threads.
It makes one wonder why Elon Musk changed the name of Twitter to X.  Is this based on his old company name or a new strategy by Elon Musk to overcome new  social media Threads? And while it is true that Musk is a shrewd businessman, it is highly questionable how effective his tactics will be.
