O CEO da Binance, Changpeng Zhao, CZ, declarou seu interesse em trazer o Web3 para o Twitter sempre que a empresa estiver pronta. O novo proprietário do Twitter, Elon Musk, recebeu apoio da comunidade de criptomoedas e muitos esperam que ele mova a plataforma de mídia social nessa direção.

While speaking on CNBC’s Squawk Box, CZ, who invested $500 million in the deal, said he supported Twitter because of Musk’s advocacy for free speech. O chefe da Binance disse:

Queremos garantir que a criptomoeda tenha um lugar à mesa quando se trata de liberdade de expressão. Há também coisas mais táticas, como queremos ajudar a trazer o Twitter para a Web3.

CZ believes charging for payments will be more feasible with blockchain features. Musk’s new Twitter is reportedly working on charging $20 a month for verification.

Musk apresenta mudanças no Twitter

Elon Musk’s first few days as Twitter’s new chief have made more headlines than the tumultuous relationship he had with the board leading up to the purchase. The 51-year-old billionaire has introduced drastic changes affecting Twitter’s staff and users at large.

Hours after completing the $44 billion deal, Musk reportedly fired CEO Parag Agrawal and two other executives. The Tesla CEO accused them of misleading him and other investors over the number of fake Twitter accounts. Musk is also said to have disclosed to potential investors that he intended to fire close to 75% of the company’s employees, which would alter the social media company’s operations.

More than 50 of Elon Musk’s reliable Tesla employees, primarily software engineers from the Autopilot team, have joined his control of Twitter. According to CNBC, employees from Musk’s other companies are now permitted to work at Twitter. Musk is said to have also brought in some of his closest allies as he continues to make his mark as Twitter’s new boss.

Musk relies on his lieutenants and friends at Twitter to decide who and what to retain or cut from the social media platform. Some Twitter employees told CNBC that Musk is pressuring his employees from Tesla to quickly grasp all they can about Twitter, including the source code, content moderation guidelines, and data protection regulations, so that he can overhaul the network.

Several Twitter employees have avoided communicating with one another on internal platforms regarding work-related issues due to the atmosphere of fear and distrust. Some of the company’s Slack channels have also stayed silent.
