Amouranth has become quite the businesswoman in recent years, flaunting her extravagant acquisitions on social media. The hot tub streamer has become the owner of a gas station, a plastic ball company and has bought a ton of stock, including $2M of Activision-Blizzard. Now, with Elon Musk\u2019s $3B purchase of 9% of Twitter, Siragusa has praised the Tesla founder for what she believes to be a \u201cgreat pickup.\u201d Amouranth explains why Elon Musk\u2019s Twitter buy was so good Taking to her personal Twitter account, the Twitch star outlined why she was thrilled about Elon\u2019s massive purchase. \u201cTwitter\u2019s utility as a platform far exceeds its market value. The problem is Twitter\u2019s cashflow and product innovation and monetization efforts have been super disappointing,\u201d she explained. \u201cFacebook would buy it if not for anti-trust. Mark [Zuckerberg] literally called it a goldmine.\u201d She further addressed Elon\u2019s decision to buy Twitter instead of creating his own platform, remarking how this method was way more cost-effective.

Only time will tell if Amouranth\u2019s superhero comparison holds up and Musk delivers after becoming the largest shareholder. In any case, it seems like Twitter is going to become a much more interesting platform now that Elon has such a prominent role.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twitch star Amouranth praises Elon Musk for $3 billion Twitter purchase Pixabay\/Instagram\/AmouranthPopular Twitch streamer-turned-entrepreneur Kaitlyn \u2018Amouranth\u2019 Siragusa is praising Elon Musk for buying 9% of Twitter instead of creating his own platform.
