Musk is pushing to transform the platform into a "super app."** This move comes as Musk attempts to leverage the platform's large user base and the growing trend of digital payments and in-app financial transactions to create new revenue streams for X. Last year, X partnered with payment company Visa to help provide direct payment services for users of the social media app. Since acquiring the platform, then known as Twitter, for $44 billion in 2022, Musk has proposed turning it into a "super app," aiming to offer various functions including streaming, messaging, images, videos, and payments all on one platform, with the goal of making X a one-stop platform similar to WeChat. An article on the Wall Street Journal website mentioned that X executives previously outlined a grand vision for X's financial services: > A complete commercial ecosystem and financial ecosystem will emerge on the platform. > > You will be able to complete all your financial transactions on X. Whether it's paying for the pizza you had together last night or making investments or trades, this is the future. > > X Money will first launch in the United States and then expand to other regions. The service will allow users to purchase goods, store value, or tip creators on the platform. Industry insiders have previously pointed out that a large-scale entry into financial services will pose significant regulatory challenges for X, including compliance with licensing requirements and anti-money laundering regulations.
