- Elon Musk has been dancing for months to buy Twitter.
- Both sides were involved in lawsuits that could have led to a lengthy, ugly legal battle.
- Musk has officially closed a deal worth $44 billion (or $54.20 per share) on Thursday.

Just a day before his deadline to close a deal, Musk purchased the social media company for a staggering $44 billion — one of the largest acquisitions of a tech company in history.
