Another user stated that if it’s anything similar to what Hoskinson has built before, it won’t scale.

On Thursday, Musk presented a $43 billion offer to assume full control of Twitter, with the intent of taking the company private. The non-binding proposal came after the Tesla CEO took a 9.2% stake in the social media giant.

Musk’s offer has gathered both positive and negative reactions from the social media firm’s shareholders. 

One key shareholder of Twitter, Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Al Saud has rejected Musk’s offer.
