DOGE’s price surges when Elon Musk offers to buy 100% Twitter
In the 10 minutes after Elon Musk’s announcement, Dogecoin (DOGE) gained its market value by approximately $1 billion, rising from $18.44 billion to $19.36 billion. DOGE’s price jumped from $0.139 to $0.1459 at the same time, with a $140 million increase in volume.
Elon Musk has made an offer to acquire 100% of Twitter only days after announcing his leaving from Twitter’s board of directors.
Elon Musk, who owns more than 9% of Twitter’s stock and is the company’s largest shareholder, sent the company a letter on Wednesday with a proposal to acquire the remaining shares of Twitter, according to a regulatory filing on Thursday. Musk made an offer of $54.20 per Twitter share.
“I invested in Twitter as I believe in its potential to be the platform for free speech around the globe, and I believe free speech is a societal imperative for a functioning democracy.
However, since making my investment I now realize the company will neither thrive nor serve this societal imperative in its current form. Twitter needs to be transformed as a private company.
I am offering to buy 100% of Twitter for $54.20 per share in cash, a 54% premium over the day before I began investing in Twitter and a 38% premium over the day before my investment was publicly announced. My offer is my best and final offer and if it is not accepted, I would need to reconsider my position as a shareholder,” Musk said in a statement.
