Chris Sacca, an early investor in Twitter, has been perhaps the biggest advocate of the company. Now he's ready to speak his mind.

Sacca, an investor with Lowercase Capital who says he still owns “a lot” of Twitter stock, explained in a blog post that he has cheered the company on for nine years without expressing his thoughts about what needs to change. “I haven’t been as candid as I could be in public discussions about Twitter,” Sacca writes in the blog post Thursday. “I am soon going to post a few things that I personally hope the Twitter team will accomplish.”
