In her New Year’s message, she highlighted X’s vision to connect users in ways that were previously unimaginable.

  • X Money: A payment system designed to transform X into a multi-functional platform.
  • Other Projects: Yaccarino also mentioned the streaming service X TV and the AI-based assistant Grok.
"In 2024, X changed the world. Now, the media is you," Yaccarino emphasized.

Elon Musk’s Vision:
X owner Elon Musk declared that with X Money, the platform will evolve into an "everything app." While X boasts over 1 billion registered users, only 40% are currently active.

Musk envisions X as a competitor to Tencent’s WeChat, which dominates the Chinese market by combining messaging, payments, and shopping into a single app. However, X currently lacks a New York City license for managing a full-scale payment system in a major market.

Integration of Cryptocurrencies:
There is speculation that Musk may integrate cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin, Bitcoin, and stablecoins, including USDC, into X Money. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong has expressed that USDC is an ideal fit for the platform.

The launch of X Money in 2025 is a bold step toward making X a one-stop solution for communication, payments, and more. With Musk’s ambitious plans and the platform’s growing ecosystem, X is positioning itself as a formidable competitor in the global tech landscape.
