Elon Musk and His Ambitions for X's Payment Services

X, one of the world’s most active social media platforms, is undergoing significant changes under Elon Musk’s leadership. Since Musk’s acquisition of this giant, discussions about its future have intensified.

Major Developments at X

Musk aims to transform X, formerly known as Twitter, into an “everything app.” Even during the early discussions of Musk’s acquisition, there were mentions of it evolving into something similar to WeChat. With the prospect of Trump winning the elections, Musk is more determined than ever to create a social media giant that includes payment services among many features.

The Role of Cryptocurrency in X

Will cryptocurrencies be included? Not likely, at least not while President Biden maintains strong pressure on crypto regulations. However, if Trump’s administration alleviates regulatory burdens, the scenario may shift. Imagine a scenario where users can directly purchase popular meme coins within the app—a possibility that Musk could easily implement.

Monetization Prospects for X

Considering the potential enormous profits from transaction fees, Musk is likely motivated to pursue this avenue. With cryptocurrency ETFs already entering U.S. stock markets, the launch of payment services at X could be just around the corner.

Under Elon Musk’s leadership, X is striving to become an innovative platform with integrated payment services, which could significantly change the social media landscape and open up prospects for successful monetization.
