Elon Musk announced Twitter will allow users to earn money from tweets
CEO Elon Musk has announced that Twitter will begin sharing ad revenue with creators where ads appear in their reply threads.
On Friday, Elon Musk announced that Twitter would soon start sharing ad revenue with creators on the platform, but only for users who are subscribed to Twitter Blue, which has a monthly fee of $8.

Before the announcement made by Elon Musk, the only way for creators to earn money on Twitter was through subscriptions.
These subscription-based accounts were limited to a select group of Twitter users who met certain criteria, such as having a minimum of 10,000 followers, being at least 18 years old, and having posted 25 tweets in the past 30 days.
Elon Musk appears to be trying to attract new users
This announcement may entice more young people to join Twitter and participate actively, as well as encourage a higher number of individuals to pay for Twitter Blue at the cost of $8.
It appears to be a component of Elon Musk's ongoing efforts to enhance the profitability of Twitter.
How much money will users get from Twitter's ad revenue?
However, it is not clear yet how much money users will earn. Musk only stated about the presence of the new feature. Elon Musk is yet to announce extra details, which we have specifically asked to him.
This feature seems really cool, but how much will creators earn specifically? You have only mentioned about the feature.
