#Trump’s allies & company execs will also be granted bundles of shares in the new company that could be worth millions. But trading on the #stockmarket will also open the company to more public scrutiny, & any drops in share prices would affect the value of those stakes.

Critics have said #TrumpMedia is a “#MemeStock” w/a >$6B valuation they say is out of sync w/its financial outlook. TrumpMedia lost $49M in the first 9 months of last yr & brought in just $3.4M in revenue, per #DWA #SEC filing.

The vote Fri by investors in #DWA authorized the #SPAC, to merge w/ #TrumpMedia & #Tech Grp as part of a process that will avoid a more traditional #IPO.
#Trump will own ~60%, which at DWA’s current share price would be worth ~$3.3B. He & other investors could earn tens of millions more shares through an “earnout” provision tied to the stock’s performance, DWA said in an #SEC filing.

The merger will net TrumpMedia $300M that DWA initially raised from investors.

When #TMTG & its proposed merger ptr, #DWA, announced last month a shareholder vote on their long-delayed deal, it marked a final step for the owner of TS to become a public co potentially worth billions —most of which is *owned* [how much he can sell is limited] by Trump.

What is the difference between #DWA and #DCE - Declarative Web app & custom element?

Both can be loaded from external location or from embedded content. Both are side effect free. DWA can be instantiated multiple times, DCE is designed for the same. Both can be containers. The life cycle, loading priority, Hydration rules are same. All same.
App usually assumed to be self-sufficient and have own business use. WC is meant to be used in the context of another application along with other ones.
