I imagine its a raise the money while people are offering it kind of thing. With twitter(as with facebook), its been a race to a business model and profitability, you have some money if you want to keep the lights on.
... also a race against time. You can only capture and hold people's attention by doing the same thing for so long. They will need to continuously evolve their product to attract new users and also keep existing ones. Twitter's valuation is based on their unrealized potential, not because they're a cash cow. Without funds to ensure continued, rapid growth, they'll never realize it.
