Elon Musk announced the abandonment of the Twitter domain for the social network X. Now the twitter.com domain redirects users to x.com, the address of the social network of the same name.
The social network Twitter was renamed X in July 2023, but access to it was through the Twitter domain.
Elon Musk purchased the x.com domain in 2017 from PayPal. According to experts, the amount of the transaction could reach 5 million dollars.
In July 2023, Twitter “stole” the account of a user with the handle @X, the new name of the social network after the rebrand.
