      Even back then a single letter domain was probably worth tens of millions.

      Maybe he’s just fixated on some sort of sunk cost fallacy. Now that he’s finally in control of another online service he feels he needs to use the domain he spent untold amounts of money on just so it didn’t seem like a waste.

      No, he literally had to buy the domain back from Paypal in 2017. Paypal owned the domain for years, even after firing Elon in 2000 for trying to switch to it.
