Elon Musk’s $44 billion purchase of Twitter is certainly the highlight of 2022. Ever since Musk took over the reins of the social media giant, he’s been in turmoil. Netizens have expressed concern over developments ranging from mass layoffs to the monetization of the platform. Over the past couple of days, discussions have come to the fore about finding a new CEO for Twitter.
Elon Musk is looking for a CEO on Twitter
A whopping 17,502,391 Twitter users sealed Musk’s fate as the platform’s CEO. Musk recently ran a poll asking netizens if he should step down as head of Twitter. 57.5% of participants were in favor of finding a new CEO. The remaining 42.5% were happy to use the Musk-led platform. As he promised to abide by the poll results, the social media giant will soon see a new CEO arrive.
Musk previously confirmed this via a tweet. Tesla’s CEO said he would step down as soon as he found someone “dumb enough” to take on the role of CEO.
Offers poured in for the next CEO of the social media giant. Some urged Musk to hire “experienced media executives” while others pointed to Meta and Google.
It should be noted that former Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal was fired after Musk joined the company.
The crypto community wanted NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden to take on the role of CEO of Twitter. This was mainly due to his recent tweet, in which he announced that he would accept payment in Bitcoins.
The whole world knows about Musk’s penchant for Dogecoin. While Musk brought meme-cryptography to his other platforms like Tesla and SpaceX, the community was confident that Twitter would also see DOGE integration. It should be noted that Musk did not make any revelations about this.
However, in the comment section of his recent tweet, the community introduced Billy Marcus, the co-founder of Dogecoin. Markus also put in his two cents on the search for a new CEO. Dogecoin co-founder said:
“I think this is a good sign, I hope you can find someone with great leadership qualities who is also a masochist!”
While the hunt for a new CEO has officially begun, the world is waiting to see who will take the reins of Twitter.
