SIGN UP Twitter shares have also erased all gains made since Musk disclosed his investment in the company on April 4, in part thanks to a sell-off late last week. Musk said Friday that the acquisition was "on hold" while he researches the proportion of fake and spam accounts on the platform, which he believes Twitter has misstated.
Musk on Monday estimated that fake users make up at least 20% of all users. Twitter, meanwhile, has said the accounts made up fewer than 5% of its monetizable daily active users in the past quarter.
