Twitter co-founder and former CEO Jack Dorsey weighed in on Elon Musk’s purchase of the platform on Monday night, saying the billionaire is the “singular solution I trust.” In a rambling tweet thread, Dorsey—who is now CEO of Block and in a recent SEC filing referred to himself as Block Head—thanked Musk and current Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal for “getting the company out of an impossible situation.” Taking Twitter “back from Wall Street is the correct first step,” Dorsey wrote, adding that while “in principle, I don’t believe anyone should own or run Twitter... this is the right path.”
The idea and service is all that matters to me, and I will do whatever it takes to protect both. Twitter as a company has always been my sole issue and my biggest regret. It has been owned by Wall Street and the ad model. Taking it back from Wall Street is the correct first step.
