Why Dukaan founders engage in Twitter fights

Their VC funding is drying up, and finding investors for next rounds is proving difficult because of the macroeconomic conditions (apart from glaringly obvious reasons like their hype has died down since it's not 2020 anymore).

Twitter has launched Ads Revenue Sharing where users with enough engagement get paid by Twitter. This is Dukaan leadership's last resort to sort of "bootstrap" themselves.

The income from Twitter is probably what helped Dukaan become profitable a few days ago.

What do you folks think?

Don't know if its true, but its a great conspiracy theory.

Moonlighting on Twitter. 😅

Moonlighting to keep the lights on is not uncommon among early age startups. Zerodha founders used to day trade to fund their company in initial days.

Dukaan founders are not that bright but they are managing with what they know.

When I see such founders, my only wish is that someone either kicks then out of their company or the startup closes down. This guy having spoken to him personally, is a snake 🐍. Nothing else describes him better
