- Snowden is willing to take control of Twitter in exchange for Bitcoin.
- Edward Snowden had previously criticized Elon Musk for his decision to burn a journalist.
- Snowden offers to take over as Twitter CEO.
The NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden has shown interest in leading Twitter. In a tweet posted today, the 39-year-old former NSA consultant said that he would accept Bitcoin (BTC) as payment for the role. This was a response to Elon Musk’s claim that Twitter needed a CEO who can “keep Twitter alive.”
This came during his trial evidence in November, when the billionaire also asserted that he didn’t want to be the CEO of any firm. He said that his position as Twitter CEO is transitory and added, “I expect to reduce my time with Twitter and find somebody else to run Twitter over time,”
In 2013, when he leaked sensitive information from the National Security Agency, Edward Snowden, a former intelligence contractor, became very well known. His confession showed how much the US government is watching both domestic and international communications.
On December 4, Musk asked users whether they thought the U.S. government should pardon WikiLeaks co-founder Julian Assange and whistleblower Edward Snowden.
It is important to remember that at the end of October, Musk took over as CEO of Twitter following a protracted dispute with the Twitter board. This came after Musk approved the purchase bid for the business in April.
Several members of the cryptocurrency and Dogecoin community have backed Musk. Regarding Doge’s integration into the social media network, Musk is upbeat.
