After being up for sale for about two weeks on the market, the first-ever tweet of Twitter CEO, Jack Dorsey, just sold for the very specific amount of $2,915,835.47. The tweet was purchased by CEO of Bridge Oracle, Sina Estavi. There was a bit of a bidding war between Sina Estavi and founder of TRON, Justin Sun. But it seems that Sun was not interested in paying more than $2 million for the tweet, and even though the bidding price stayed at $2.5 million for two weeks, Estavi raised his bid just in case someone else tried to snatch it at the last moment.
Estavi believes that Dorsey’s tweet is not “just a tweet” but something much more valuable, and that in the future people will value it as much as the Mona Lisa painting. Only time will tell.
This is not just a tweet!
I think years later people will realize the true value of this tweet, like the Mona Lisa painting https://t.co/vnA5pz3esQ

Dorsey is a huge fan and supporter of the crypto space, and his financial services company, Square, has a large sum of money in Bitcoin. Dorsey announced that he has converted the proceeds from his tweet to Bitcoin and donated the money to the charity organization GiveDirectly. Good lad Jack, we salute you.
