The tech tycoon Elon Musk plans to turn X, the social media platform that he owns, which was previously known as Twitter, into a platform that will enable its users to use it for their financial requirements as well. As per the latest reports, this feature will be available on the platform from next year onwards.
Musk was talking in an interview with The Verge. Reportedly, he said that by payments he means the entire financial life of the user. He continued that if life involves money then it would be on his platform. He further said that it does need to be necessary money; it can be their securities or whatever is related to finance in their lives. He added that he was not talking about sending 20 US dollars to a reminder or that kind of thing but rather he was mentioning that the user can use their X account as a bank account and that an X user would not even need another bank account.
This plan comes in association with another earlier plan that Musk had when he rebranded the entire platform. He had said that his ambition was to make X, the Everything app.
Will There Be a Crypto Token Launch?
As of the present reports, it is assumed that Musk does have plans to roll out the new features soon, but there have been no talks of any kind of token launch plans. It is estimated that this would not involve the launch of any crypto token.
Let us look at what changes have happened to Twitter after Elon Musk bought it as it has been one year since the billion-dollar deal was signed.
