🤑 $9B Merger Drama: Shareholders Say “Not So Fast, Core Scientific!” 🚨

According to Two Seas, this merger is about as appealing as a soggy sandwich. 🥪 They claim it “materially undervalues” Core Scientific, which is just a fancy way of saying, “You’re selling yourselves short, folks!” And let’s not forget the cherry on top: the deal allegedly puts investors at “considerable economic risk.” Yikes! 😱 The vote will take place at a virtual shareholder meeting, because who needs the drama of an in-person showdown when you can just log in from your couch? 🛋️

In a dispatch posted on X-the platform formerly known as Twitter but now apparently christened “X” because why not?-Armstrong assured us all that this AI business would be handled responsibly. “Obviously,” he declared, in tones one imagines were suitably grave, “it needs to be reviewed and understood.” How reassuring! One pictures him stroking an invisible beard while nodding sagely.
