Elon Musk said he didn’t want Twitter to become a “free-for-all hellscape” but his short tenure at the top is being marked by chaos – layoffs, resignations, and concerns about security and misinformation. Can the social media giant survive? One giant that didn’t make it – FTX. The crypto exchange went from billions to bankruptcy in a matter of days. How did this stunning downfall happen? Jake Ward explains these meltdowns and their implications with the help of reporters who are tracking every new jaw dropping development.

Nothing went wrong with Crypto, fraud has always happened in all businesses
Binance next, maybe. And then Tether.
Wow the media loves creating drama 🙄🙃😂
Really comparing Twitter to FTX? Lmao y’all are pathetic.
This is the same kind of currency that they won't put America on digital money, they can turn your account off at any time, if you do not agree with them, I like real money I like real gold I like real silver. I would not invest in something that not that does not even exist. These crazy Rich folks they deserve what they get.
Twitter needs to just go away, then maybe young people will not be so stupid
Mothing is free someone always pays
Sam who???? I did not have financial relations with that man!
A whiz kid investor??? He found a simple loophole in a new wild west type crypto industry where he could buy cheap in America and sell high in Japan. Not much a whiz kid, really!
Wait until there is a decentralized "town square" on the blockchain. You will have open and secure conversations that can't be deleted. It's coming, and will be awesome! Are you paying attention, Elon?
13:58 Big name investors did not care. It's not their money they're investing. Win or lose, they get their bonus and Lamborghini. That's why I left the finance racket.
just as secure as facebook, only its not as nerve racking as facebook, I hope he doesn't try to copy their style with all the shorts and crap
Does the corporate veil even protect him now since this is basically all his ego, and he removed the ppl who said no
Where is your integrity man you’re literally spinning you make the FTX thing looks so mild compared to Elon musk problems which are obviously fabricated when a company is owned by a person privately and the employees don’t do what the boss wants or can’t deliver what is expected well then they would be fired or let’s go that’s pretty normal but you have to wear it so that it makes him look mean unbelievable people aren’t that dumb
You got a remember Eli was donating all the satellites for Wireless for free and now the government is just passing the death they ignore them on the EV summit and he’s the number one electric car sales guy in the world he’s ahead of everybody so why would I keep doing it for free ask yourself that if it was you you wouldn’t that’s just being honest
its funny that musk only bought twitter because of a backfire with his attempt to cover his manipulating stock and crypto prices for his own personal gain ,
Bankman fraud. Elon will remake the platform making profit. He has a track record Tesla, 🚀 X
So the number two donor to the Democratic party just under George Soros stole everybody's money didn't buy anything and gave it to Democrats wow that's an interesting story
Elon Musk is clearing away all the woke employees, without calling them out. and they are falling for his scheme
How dare you compare Ftx scam to Elan Musk taking over Twitter. FTX was a deliberate fraud. Mr Musk took over a business already in chaos. Elan will fix Twitter and Bank and will go to jail.
Idiots are the only ones buying crypto
You maybe making fun of crypto, but Saudi dump USD for their oil, will make US D the biggest biggest ponzi scheme.. Just ask Congress, they raise the deb ceiling n that's it.. But they got no control of MBS of Saudi n OPEC.. Now that China n BRICS are there, they don't need USA or their military.. China n Russia is happy to protect Saudi.. Mark my words, I think the Saudi is going to act against the USA, any year now..
“It doesn’t make any services possible”? How about peer to peer transactions without any trusted third parties? Transmitting value without risk of censorship or seizure? If you live in the half of the world currently under authoritarian rule, those are pretty valuable services.
I never got in a crypto and never will I wasn't a believer in the beginning because how can you value something that has no value or no backing it's basically like putting your money in someone else's wallet and they can just run with it and when it's gone it's gone similar to playing the lottery it's just a big gamble so all these people that bought Krypto and made money I hope they pulled all their money out before it collapsed otherwise they're going to be broke too
It sucks your the gown up take you rattle away from you. what cry-babies. Over the years I have worked at 14 companies just a couple IBM, HP, Compaq and a lot others and what I can tell is there has never been any free speech at the corp. level. Elon pays only the people he want to as he is not obligation as to who works for him just like everyone else. Be careful this guy have no idea what they are talking about, LAME AS IT GETS.
