Appeal the decision and eventually reach a settlement where he doesn't buy twitter.
This market will resolve according to my judgement at least 3 months after a ruling by a Delaware judge that enforces a specific performance clause in the acquisition agreement Musk signed with Twitter which orders him to liquidate and tender approximately $33B to fund and close the deal at the current price of $54.20. I would say 'be creative' but this is Elon Musk so What Would Lex Luthor Do?

@JamesBabcock yeah this is why I made a binary market for this question https://manifold.markets/ahalekelly/if-a-delaware-court-orders-elon-mus
@BTE This phrasing is ambiguous; there will almost certainly be appeals, and any injunction will almost certainly be delayed while appeals are pending, but the appeals will be handled by lesser courts and not the Delaware Supreme Court or by SCOTUS.
