If a favorable prospect is realized, the value of the company may significantly increase. Currently, the social network is worth $ 20 billion. If the positive forecast comes true, this figure will grow to $ 250 billion.
Since Elon Musk took over the company in October 2022, there have been several product and organizational changes. It was decided to reduce 80% of employees. The company’s advertising revenue decreased by 40%. Elon Musk said that Twitter is currently suffering significant losses. The paid Twitter Blue subscription, the introduction of which was considered the creation of the main source of income, did not justify itself from a financial point of view, since it was issued by only 1% of users.
