Elon Musk’s X is worth nearly 80% less than when he bought it, Fidelity estimates

People should look at it from the angle of the potential it has and not just from its current value. In the short term it might look like its losing money but in the long term X will be the most powerful social media platform in the world.I won't bet against Elon because one thing that i have come to learn is that he always proves his detractors wrong.
