#XSuperApp

Elon Musk's history: Musk is a long-time crypto advocate, particularly of Dogecoin and Bitcoin. Tesla has accepted Bitcoin before and still holds it on its balance sheet. He’s pushed Dogecoin for payments in various Tesla and SpaceX contexts.

X's financial services ambitions: Becoming a “super app” (in the vein of WeChat) means integrating diverse payment methods. Ignoring crypto would limit global reach and innovation.

Licensing moves: X has secured money transmitter licenses in several U.S. states. These are often prerequisites for handling crypto-related services alongside traditional finance.
