Nikita Bier Steps Down as X Head of Product
Nikita Bier Steps Down as X Head of Product Nikita Bier is out as X's Head of Product after ~400 days, a run as productive as it was controversial. He shipped ~30 products and stays on as adviser. But it was turbulent from the start: days in, Grok began calling itself "MechaHitler." The heat never dropped, his creator-monetization overhaul split the base, and X caught a €120M EU fine and a California probe along the way. Fitting end: traders had been betting on Polymarket over when he'd quit. This week they cashed out. 👉 x.com/nikitabier/status/2085105586966827343?s=20
