X is now reportedly trying to sell "disused" user handles. This program has been rumored for a year but seems to have been initiated recently. According to Forbes, emails are being sent to potential buyers following hints from X's billionaire owner Elon Musk last year. Musk had mentioned plans to free up handles taken by "bots and trolls" earlier. In November 2022, he posted about "freeing them up next month."
