Elon Musk Considers A Nominal Daily Fee for Users on ‘X’ Platform

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and Space X, who acquired Twitter. It rebranded it as “X” and is contemplating another monumental shift within the platform, which revolves around imposing a nominal daily fee on its users.

Before finalizing his acquisition of the popular social media platform, Musk had hinted at impending alterations. Now, the tech magnate is contemplating introducing a user fee of less than 25 cents per day to enhance the quality and sustainability of the platform.

Harnessing the Power of “X”: Aiming to Curtail Misinformation

As reported by Bloomberg’s Dave Lee, Musk is considering reintroducing a concept he had previously broached privately: imposing a minor charge on all users to access “X”. This move, touted as a lower-tier premium, would be aimed at not only generating revenue but also combating bots and misinformation prevalent on the platform.

In a conversation with Benjamin Netanyahu, Musk mentioned, “We are considering a small monthly fee for accessing the X system,” envisioning it as a strategy to identify and eliminate bot activity. Musk perceives this step as potentially pivotal in transforming the platform, which some critics label as a breeding ground for hate speech and misinformation since its acquisition in 2022.

Drawing on an earlier discourse, a 2022 article by Casey Newton highlighted the likelihood of Musk implementing a payment scheme for using “X”. Although this initiative might face initial hiccups, given that the existing premium version, “Blue”, garnered a modest user base exceeding 100,000 active subscribers.

Amid these developments, there have been suggestions from various quarters to impose a higher fee on business accounts, offering them exclusive features to extend their reach. However, this proposal did not gain traction.

Musk, citing a drastic plunge in advertisement revenues by 50% since assuming control, views the introduction of a 23-cent daily charge as a necessary step to restore the platform’s financial health, making it accessible for the average user while maintaining its efficacy and reach.
