Difference between Jack Dorsey's Twitter and Elon Musk's X

Billy Markus, who created the original meme-inspired cryptocurrency Dogecoin in 2013 in collaboration with Jackson Palmer, and who is known on social media as Shibetoshi Nakamoto, published a tweet about Twitter and X social media platform.

Twitter was a popular microblogging platform founded by Jack Dorsey. Elon Musk purchased it in October 2022 for $44 billion and rebranded it as X. He also added several important updates that made the X platform a much more attractive place for content makers. Those included much longer posts, simply-purchasable verification ticks, live videos.

Currently, the functions for job seeking and dating are being tested. Besides, users can support content makers by subscribing to them for a small monthly fee. Another opportunity for earning money is a Monetization feature which allows X users to receive their part of profits from advertising on X.

In his tweet, Shibetoshi Nakamoto confessed that if Twitter had got shut down he would not have minded since it was “somewhat fun and somewhat toxic and overall unimportant.” However, Billy Markus admitted that he would be “very upset if 𝕏 shut down” as if declaring his love to Elon Musk’s X.
