If he was the brilliant and innovative tech guy people think he is, it would have been a nice play. Not sure if it would be successful but there was so much room for Twitter to find a new direction like that and put a squeeze on the competition, especially by providing a utility service like payments or some such.
I don't know if you actually need to be a brilliant tech guy. I think having a reputation for being one might be enough.
His problem now is, only cryptocurrency chuds still think he's a genius, and while it's all about having the right friends, catturd2 is not the guy who will make it happen for you.
Snapchat made that pivot years ago, they kinda adopted the Venmo model. Twitter is definitely a lot bigger and if he hadn't just bulldozed the company they probably could have pulled it off by just copying what everyone else was doing.
I actually think he could have pulled it off if he hadn't tanked Twitter's reputation trying to be epic and based.
