Elon Musk Confirms Early Public Access Launch of X Money Next Month

The much-anticipated financial app, planned and developed by the popular social media platform X (formerly Twitter), is coming to market sooner than some may have anticipated.

Elon Musk posted on X to reveal that the app’s early public access launch will take place as soon as next month.

Why it Matters for Crypto?

As CryptoPotato reported earlier, Musk’s vision of transforming social media into an “everything app” has been gradually taking shape with the development of X Money. The latter is supposed to be a new payments feature designed to bring financial services directly to the platform.

Up until this moment, Musk said that the app was running in a closed internal beta.

Early screenshots of the popular actor William Shatner suggested that the app may include features such as a debit card with cashback, as well as tools for sending and receiving payments.

One of the biggest questions surrounding X Money, however, is whether or not it will support cryptocurrencies. Musk, who has frequently influenced crypto markets in the past, particularly through his comments about Dogecoin, as well as his decision to integrate Bitcoin payments for Tesla purchases, as well as to hold BTC on Tesla’s balance sheet, has hinted at broader financial capabilities for the platform.

He even recently amplified a post that described potential services, such as crypto support, and commented that the overall initiative will be big.

It’s worth noting, however, that there’s no official confirmation of whether such integrations will be featured.
