Tron Founder Justin Sun Competes With Musk to Take Twitter Private at $60 a Share

(Twitter) Tron Founder Justin Sun is seeking to take Twitter private at $60 a share, eclipsing the offer of $54.20 a share by Tesla’s CEO Elon Musk. 

Sun concurs with Musk’s proposals on the “edit button” for the social media giant. He similarly proposes upholding the freedom of speech and a subscription service allowing Dogecoin payment and a ban on advertising.

Sun says he would make Twitter a superior platform by tapping into its full capabilities. Similar to Musk, he wants to make Twitter a Web3-friendly and crypto-dedicated platform.

The Tron founder seeks to decentralize Twitter’s workforce and make it neutral and less US-centric. He also proposes a more open and decentralized approach to Web3 by the social media giant.

To attract more users, Sun wants to introduce a mechanism that will ban bots and scammers on Twitter. 

It now remains to be seen if Sun will make a formal bid for Twitter amid Musk’s lower offer to take the social media giant private.
