Elon Musk’s social media experiment is paying off big time. The company formerly known as Twitter, now called X, has reportedly regained its $44 billion valuation—the same amount Musk paid when he bought it in 2022.
This major turnaround marks a stunning comeback for the platform, which faced a mass advertiser exodus, mass layoffs, and liberal media meltdowns over Musk’s “free speech absolutist” approach.
According to Financial Times, a secondary financing round has placed X’s valuation back at $44 billion, proving that Musk’s vision is working.
A separate Bloomberg report suggests Musk himself participated in the financing round, which raised nearly $1 billion in new equity. Alongside $12.5 billion in debt, this deal values X at roughly $32 billion, proving that while the company still has a way to go, it’s far from dead—despite what corporate media tried to claim.
Musk didn’t just buy Twitter—he overhauled it. From the moment he took over, he slashed woke bureaucracies, cut thousands of jobs, and reinvented the company into a next-generation “everything app.”
- Content Moderation Freedom: X dismantled Twitter’s leftist censorship machine, allowing free speech to thrive.
- Premium Subscription Model: With verified blue checkmarks available for paying users, Musk broke the left-wing monopoly on “official” voices.
- AI Integration: X is now home to Grok, an integrated AI chatbot built by Musk’s xAI, designed to combat left-wing misinformation with real, uncensored intelligence.
- Everything App Vision: Musk has signaled his long-term goal is to turn X into a full-service platform with built-in payments, content creation tools, and artificial intelligence.
Musk’s comeback isn’t just about business—it’s about politics. The Tesla and SpaceX CEO is working closely with President Donald Trump and is the unofficial head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Musk has described X as an “accelerant” for his bold vision of the future—a place where free speech reigns, Big Tech censorship is crushed, and America First policies can be communicated directly to the people.
And here’s the kicker—X’s valuation is now on par with what Twitter was earning before Musk took over.
So much for the “Musk ruined Twitter” narrative.
Remember when leftists cheered as advertisers abandoned X? Remember when the media declared Musk’s takeover a failure?
They were dead wrong.
- Fidelity, which slashed its X valuation by 72% in December, was clearly premature.
- Corporate media tried to declare X dead, but the market is proving otherwise.
- X’s 25% stake in xAI—valued at $45 billion—puts it ahead of the pack in the AI arms race.
With Musk in full control and Trump back in power, X is well-positioned to be the biggest force in media, AI, and digital payments.
The woke tech establishment thought they could kill X and Musk’s vision—but they failed.
And now? Musk and Trump are building something even bigger.
