Elon Musk on Friday said monthly users of social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, reached a new high this year.

Musk shared a graph that showed the latest count as over 540 million.

“Also, this is after removal of a vast number of bots,” he added.

Twitter replaced its recognisable bird logo with the letter “X” as its new official mark this week, marking the latest major shift since Musk’s takeover of the social media platform.

Notably, Musk said that x.com now points to twitter.com as well. Musk also referred to this design as an “interim” one, suggesting that there may be other logo changes in the future.

Musk’s post on X about the user figures comes as the company goes through organisational changes and looks to boost advertising revenue which has dropped in the recent month.
