WASHINGTON, Jun 1 Twitter CEO Elon Musk confirmed in Thursday plans to rebrand his social network, he wrote about this on Twitter.
«True,» the entrepreneur wrote, commenting on a T(w)itter Daily News report that the letter X could replace the current social network name and blue bird logo.
Earlier in April it became aware of the takeover of Twitter Inc. X Corp., which Musk registered in Nevada in March of this year.
In an interview with The Babylon Bee Talks on Wednesday, Musk said he «believes in descriptive brands, and 'X' can mean anything.» According to the businessman, his vision of the social platform as a platform for publishing videos, photos and large-format texts goes beyond the initial idea of the social network as a tool for exchanging short messages. «I think Twitter might be the wrong brand for this,» Musk said in an interview.
Twitter Inc. was founded in 2006 as a social network for the exchange of short messages. Musk finally closed the $44 billion acquisition deal in the fall of 2022.
