Farcaster's view on what's going to happen with Twitter now that Elon acquisition is almost finalized? Anyone expecting rapid product changes within the next 6-12 months?

My bold bet: he will immediately change the default from free to a subscription. This is the only true way to deal with bots, grow the business rapidly, and free culture from the editorial leverage of advertisers all at the same time.

More likely that he allows anyone to pay for verification via subscription imo — solves those problems without alienating existing users. Maybe introduce a separate badge for high-profile people.

i don’t think default paid but i do think major changes to what paid sub includes (verification etc)

Why will charging money get rid of bots or solve the bot problem? If there is value in having bots then people will pay the fee, and pass that cost through? It will raise the price of having bots, but how will it solve the problem? (I have no idea what I’m talking about, just curious)
