Twitter is not going to collapse, despite idiots running it, but the User base may evolve, meaning the active User's may evolve, with now active accounts staying but with those User's going silent and not being counted among active daily Users.

There were competent people who built the infrastructure that runs the site and platform and microservices.

The guys with scala build tools experience at Twitter are competent, although some have departed.

Plus, major banks hold debt and a collapsing Twitter is not good for those large banks.

Elon and his cohort of new owner’s may struggle to service the debt payments associated with the transaction.

Elon and friends want to inflate away their debt and devalue the US Dollar, however.

The guy who runs the # 1 crypto market maker (was #2 behind Alameda) told Bloomberg that the last few weeks have, "rebooted my faith in crypto as something that can replace the future financial system."

Think of it as Global Organized Crime trying to give SWIFT a swift kick in the ass.

Experts were anticipating the possibility that Russia would use the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) Digital Yuan in order to bypass payment systems like SWIFT back in March 2022.

Russia and Iran were already getting around SWIFT and some sanctions.

If CIPS, China's onshore yuan clearing and settlement system CIPS, were used to settle more trade, it would create a Chinese-yuan driven alternative to the dollar-dominated SWIFT system.

But what if Twitter becomes a way to entice ppl to adopt another payment system using some form of crypto currency?

Russia's Central Bank National Payment System Department announced in Sept 2022 that Russia’s SPFS interbank messaging system had expanded at record pace in 2022 with 50 new entities from abroad joining the SPFS in Q1-Q2 of 2022, totallng 440.

The System for Transfer of Financial Messages (SPFS), is open to banks from the BRICS nations.

Sometimes I wonder whether useful idiot Elon Musk and Peter Thiel are Russian assets, or does US CIA have a handle on Elon Musk?

They look more like Russian Assets / useful idiots.
