It didn’t take long for the tweet to capture people’s attention. Since being posted, the share has also gathered over 2.8 lakh likes and the numbers are only increasing. The post has also been retweeted over 27,000 times. People had various things to say while reacting to the post.

Shibetoshi Nakamoto, pseudonym of Dogecoin co-creator Billy Markus, reacted to the post. “Despite all my rage I am still just a bird in a cage,” he wrote. His tweet also received a reply from Musk. Take a look at what the SpaceX CEO tweeted:

Right??” asked another. “It can be understood in two ways, Elon Musk says goodbye to the idea of becoming the founder of Twitter or Elon Musk gives Twitter freedom without censorship and restrictions. So what is it?” posted a third trying to understand the reason behind Musk’s tweet.

A few shared a particular tweet and posted that it is the original artist who created the caricature:

Earlier Elon Musk took over Twitter in a $44 billion deal. However, recently he shared that he is putting an acquisition plan “on hold” for the moment.
