Elon Musk and the Tikok sale: truth or fiction?

rumors about a possible sale of TikKOK to Tech billionaire Elon Musk are currently causing a stir. Such a business is said to be discussed between Chinese government officials and musk. The CEO of Tesla, who has already taken on Twitter, could integrate Tiktok, which belongs to the parent company bytedance, into its growing social media portfolio, such as OE24 reported. The value of TikKok's US business is estimated at $ 40 to $ 50 billion, which could make a takeover for Musk a financial challenge.
