The “cannabis” enigmatic detail in Elon Musk’s Twitter bid

Billionaire Elon Musk humorously tells what changes he will make after purchasing Twitter, while not neglecting to make “weed” jokes.

The code for the number 420

Musk announced on April 14, 2022 that he was ready to pay $41 billion, or $54.20 per share, for Twitter. This determined share price is not a mathematical coincidence and is considered a wink to Musk’s decades-old cannabis culture. Because the number “420” is commonly known as a coded reference for cannabis. The funding documents Musk submitted to support his proposal last week were also signed on April 20, abbreviated as 4/20.

April 20 is considered an unofficial holiday for cannabis smokers, and 4:20 a.m. is a common time to smoke pot and “light up.” The term “420” alone is synonymous with cannabis use, and the number 420 has now become a phenomenon online. You can see this for yourself by searching the number “420” in the Google search engine.
