He’s already stated that he wants to copy WeChat in China. Basically, he wants to implement payments into the Twitter app. Maybe you’ll be able to pay your bills directly and interact with companies regarding assistance directly on twitter. You’ll be able to easily tip meme creators and who knows what else. Maybe Twitter will replace YouTube, Cash App, Tik Tok, Discord, & Facebook all at once. That’s certainly the plan. How successful it will be is anyone’s guess.
Those are pretty bold predictions when you consider how this started. He didn't think it trough. In fact he didn't even want to buy it at the end. But that would have been breach of contract and he would have to pay $1 billion breakup fee. Mad skillz presented right there on thinking things through.

Now they are kicking employees who criticize the new leadership, so i guess he is pro free speech if it suits him. And the amount of things they f*ed up is so huge it needs many pages of text so i usually pick the latest one.

I certainly HOPE that twitter doesn't burn to the ground but start wasn't optimal and it's not like he is making friends with the great minds who should be working in twitter.

Considering that things wasn't doing that good before he bought it, i really thought he wouldn't make things worse. But we'll see. At least we have still thriving crypto twitter and i see that as very important platform for us, but currently my feed is Musk fanbois, which is annoying.
