Elon Musk Reveals When Public Access For X Money To Rollout Next Month

In an X post, Elon Musk revealed that early public access for X Money will launch next month. This marks a huge progress as the world’s richest man moves to transform the social media platform into the ‘Everything App.’ Crypto traders are currently predicting that the X Money launch won’t happen till the end of April

On Polymarket, there is currently only a 15% chance that the X Money will launch by April 10. Meanwhile, there is a 73% chance that it will launch by April 30. As to what to expect, market commentator Mario Nawfal stated that the move expands Elon Musk’s X into payments, banking, and crypto, with the aim of an all-in-one ‘Everything App.’

The full rollout is expected later this year. Crypto pundit Satoshi Club noted that part of the X Money payment features will include a debit card, both physical and virtual

Furthermore, users will enjoy high yield on their balances, with early testers reportedly getting up to 6% APY on cash. There will also be 3% cashback on purchases while deposits are FDIC-insured through Cross River Bank. Users will be able to make instant P2P payments using Visa Direct.

Satoshi Club added that the most interesting part is Smart Cashtags. Users will be able to click Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Dogecoin, and other cashtags directly in posts and buy or sell assets without leaving the social media platform

The Dogecoin Angle

The Dogecoin price jumped about 7% amid Elon Musk’s announcement that early public access for X Money will launch next month. Crypto Pundit Wise noted that DOGE was the first crypto to react to news about the X Money, noting that this has happened many times before. The pundit added that Musk makes an announcement, and then DOGE pumps first, prompting the market to speculate about integration

In line with this, Wise questioned whether X Money will finally provide real utility for DOGE on X or if this is just another hype-driven trade. Elon Musk has yet to confirm the extent of crypto integration on the platform or whether it will enable payments in Dogecoin and other crypto assets

Dogecoin payments remain a possibility, especially considering the world’s richest man’s affinity for the foremost meme coin. He had also praised Bitcoin last year as being resistant to inflation, especially considering that it cannot be printed out of thin air like fiat.
