#ElonMusk , the owner of Tesla, SpaceX, xAI and X, is adding another visionary move to the technology world. Musk's favorite social media platform #X (formerly Twitter) will soon become not just a social media platform; it will also become a global "super-application" where investments, money transfers and financial transactions are made.
💬 Bombshell Statement from X CEO: "Investment and Buy-Sell Transactions Begin!"
Speaking to the British economic newspaper Financial Times, X CEO Linda Yaccarino confirmed that the platform has entered a radical transformation process. According to Yaccarino's statement:
"Our new services will include investment instruments and financial transactions. This system is first launched in the US under the name 'X Money'."
This system emerges as an extension of the collaboration launched with Visa in January 2025. Currently, bank accounts can be connected and money can be transferred between users via digital wallets.
💰 Cryptocurrency World on Alert: Is Integration Imminent?
Although Linda Yaccarino has not directly mentioned cryptocurrencies, these developments in the sector are considered “preparatory”. According to experts, this transformation in X’s infrastructure may pave the way for cryptocurrencies to be integrated into the platform very soon.
Especially considering Musk’s previous interest in Dogecoin, Bitcoin and general blockchain technology, it seems inevitable that X will support crypto transactions in the future.
In fact, X already supports features that allow tipping via the Bitcoin Lightning Network. This already proves that the platform is intertwined with crypto technologies.
📱 Goal: Becoming the WeChat of the West
Elon Musk’s long-term vision is to turn X into a super app similar to “WeChat” developed by Chinese technology giant Tencent. WeChat allows users in China to solve their messaging, video calls, payments, bills, investments, transportation and many other daily needs through a single application.
Similarly, Musk aims to bring together features such as:
Social media sharing
Money transfer
Crypto transactions
Bill payment
Investment tools
Banking services
...under one roof on X.
🧠 Elon Musk's Digital Evolution: Media + Finance + Artificial Intelligence
This initiative has the potential to integrate with Musk's other projects. In particular:
Artificial intelligence solutions developed with xAI,
Tesla's payment systems,
SpaceX's global Starlink network,
...could make the X app the most comprehensive digital platform on a global scale.
🎯 Conclusion: Elon Musk Is Breaking the Game Again
Elon Musk's plan to transform X from a social media app into a global digital economy center could reshape the world of technology and finance.
If this vision comes true:
All financial transactions will be made through X without the need for banking,
Direct transactions will be made with cryptocurrencies,
Social media, investment, trade and finance will be combined in a single application.
Musk is breaking the rules again, starting a new digital age.
