Elon Musk's takeover of Twitter went down via private text messages between the Tesla CEO and a small circle of Silicon Valley's rich and powerful, plus their underlings, advisers and a handful of reporters, politicians and aspiring dealmakers.
The messages were part of court filings and revealed Thursday as part of the pre-trial discovery process in the court battle over whether Musk has to follow through on the merger agreement he signed to buy Twitter. Twitter and Musk are due in court Oct. 17.
The stream of messages includes Musk's exchanges with Twitter founder Jack Dorsey, current CEO Parag Agrawal, Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison, and many more.

There are a number of things required for a contract to exist. Do the texts provide all those things? That is what the court will have to decide. Contracts don't actually have to be written. The text message are written and can easily serve as a contract if all the requirements are met. Primary to its existence is if the texts can show agreement since the basics like capable parties, legal purpose and consideration will be there before mutual consent can exist. It's been a long time since I have tried to use what I learned in contract law. Any lawyers out there should feel free to chime in if I'm barking up the wrong tree
