Elon Musk and Bill Gates keep deleting the Bitcoin scam tweets that hackers are posting to their accounts, but they are getting reposted by the hackers almost immediately.
Unconfirmed rumors that a Twitter employee with access to the user management panel was hacked.

As of this comment, the account has received 12.02BTC. Around ~$111,000. In Monopoly money, that's R1.8 million .
It's transferred about half that to other accounts.

Twitter has now blocked any posts containing the BTC address.

Don't think Apple tweets were deleted. That account is known for having zero tweets I believe, except for a few ads.
