Crypto-Friendly Companies Join Elon Musk to Buy Twitter

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has secured funding from 18 companies to purchase Twitter Inc., his arkivering with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEK) on Thursday shows.

The SEC filing explains that Musk received equity commitment letters from these investors on May 4 “providing for an aggregate of approximately $7.139 billion in new financing commitments” in connection with his proposed acquisition of Twitter.

Some pro-crypto companies are on the list of investors, including Sequoia Capital Fund which committed $800 million, crypto exchange Binance which committed $500 million, AH Capital Management (aka Andreessen Horowitz, a16z) which committed $400 million, and Fidelity which committed over $300 million.

Binance independently announced Thursday that it “plans to invest $500 million alongside Elon Musk in Twitter buyout.” CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) kommenterede:

We’re excited to be able to help Elon realize a new vision for Twitter … We hope to be able to play a role in bringing social media and web3 together and broadening the use and adoption of crypto and blockchain technology.

Sequoia Capital is a crypto-friendly VC firm. The company launched a cryptocurrency-focused fund of as much as $600 million in February and has partnered with some key players in the crypto space, including FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried and former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey.

Fidelity Investments has long been pro-bitcoin, calling the cryptocurrency “a superior form of money.” In April, the financial services giant launched crypto and metaverse exchange-traded funds (ETF'er) and announced that it will start allowing bitcoin investments in 401(k) retirement accounts.

The largest funding commitment came from Larry Ellison, co-founder of Oracle Corp. and a Tesla board member. He agreed to invest $1 milliard.

Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal also agreed to remain an investor of Twitter after Musk’s takeover. He initially refused to consider the Tesla executive’s offer to buy the social media platform, stating that his offer did not come close to Twitter’s intrinsic value.
