After purchasing the social network, Musk reportedly failed to meet his obligations regarding office leases and contracts in a timely manner, according to ABC News. He also significantly reduced the number of employees.

According to media reports, Musk wanted to highlight the excessive expenses incurred by the previous management of the company by selling the former Twitter items. He also aimed to demonstrate that reducing company expenses is a priority for him.

It is worth noting that in April 2022, Elon Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion. In July 2023, he changed the social network's name and logo to X.
