Elon Musk has articulated that the purchased social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, is under discussion for charging all users for accessing the platform through a paywall system of revenue generation. The X owner, Elon Musk, said “ erecting a paywall around the business would ward off the bots, or automated accounts, that have become a bugbear for Musk.”
X will soon launch the ‘Paid Version’ for all users. This statement was given by ‘SpaceX’ Founder Elon Musk in a meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister. Elon Musk, the world’s richest person, suggested that X is going to charge its user base based on usage cases.
