It is likely that some of his employees have contracts, and he might have to pay out the remainder of those contracts, depending on the details and national labor law.

I also think as he doesn't align politically with a lot of ppl on Twitter, he might wanna phase it out slowly, so there's no sudden jump in other platforms trying to take over the role of Twitter.

Ofc I have no evidence for that, but I could see him doing that.
