pressured by shareholders to accept Elon Musk\u2019s bid<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite speculation that the Twitter board will reject Elon Musk's bid outright, recent reports suggest that the company is seriously considering selling the Tesla CEO and founder a 100 percent stake in the microblogging platform, which excites Cardano Founder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Twitter board of directors has begun discussions with itself and is weighing the benefits and drawbacks of selling the microblogging platform to Musk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the report, the board began considering the deal after Tesla CEO Elon Musk wooed the company's shareholders last week with financial details of his $43 billion bid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Calls have been made to the company's board of directors following his explanation of the financing details of his bid to shareholders, as it has been urged not to let the opportunity pass them by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As reported by CoinScreed earlier today, the board is seriously <a href=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/dogecoin-fan-elon-musk-may-buy-twitter-this-wee.html\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"24898\">considering Musk's offer<\/a> and could respond by the end of this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No Decision Has Been Taken<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The fact that the Twitter board has begun discussions with its members about Musk's bid does not mean that the microblogging platform will be sold to Musk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company is only considering selling the company to Musk based on his $43 billion investment in Tesla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that during Musk's Twitter bid announcement, the Tesla CEO <a href=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/elon-musk-offers-to-buy-twitter.html\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"24062\">proposed<\/a> a $54.20 per share offer as his best and final offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-default\" \/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group
