Breaking: Elon Musk Confirms Linda Yaccarino As New Twitter CEO

Crypto Market News: Billionaire Elon Musk on Friday confirmed the appointment of Linda Yaccarino as the new CEO of Twitter. This marks yet another major change at the top of Twitter leadership after Musk fired the leadership team when he took over the social media company in October 2022. Musk said the new CEO would focus primarily on the company’s business operations while he would himself continue to focus on product design and new technology. This is an interesting development for not just Twitter and Tesla but also for the crypto market.
