The reason is because Elon went through a manic minute at like 3am the other day and thinks the letter x is cool. Were we applying anything rational to this they wouldn't have rebranded as the twitter brand is about the only thing they have left going for the service.
Apparently he used to own x.com back in 1999 before it merged with PayPal (or something like that).
From Wikipedia: On July 5, 2017, Musk repurchased the domain name X.com from PayPal. He explained later that he bought the website because "it has great sentimental value".
Probably bought twitter just to have an excuse to use the domain again for something. That guy has too much money.
It’s pretty obvious he bought Twitter to turn it into a megaphone for his and his fascist buddies’ propaganda.
This is exactly it, in my opinion.
I mean, yeah, but also he tweeted something like "send me x logos and we'll make that the brand tomorrow" so idk but I don't think there was a lot of thought going into this one.
To be honest, the whole social-market industry seems like just lumped together manic episodes at this point (past their initial implementation) with no direction or thought leaders. ala reddit, twitter, etc.
