Platform X Prepares to Launch Trading, P2P Payments, and Investments services
The X platform is actively developing its financial infrastructure, with trading, P2P transactions, and investment features expected to launch "soon." According to CEO Linda Yaccarino, the goal is to turn X into a place where users can manage "all of their financial activity."
Speaking at an advertising festival, Yaccarino announced that users will be able to send peer-to-peer payments, store funds, support content creators, and access paid broadcasts directly through X. These capabilities align with Elon Musk’s broader vision of transforming X into a Western counterpart of China’s multifunctional app WeChat.
Earlier in 2025, X introduced a digital wallet and launched X Money in partnership with Visa. This financial infrastructure is expected to serve as the foundation for future money operations, including trading and potentially cryptocurrency integration.
Musk, known for his support of digital assets, has long promoted Dogecoin and currently holds over 11,500 BTC through Tesla—worth around $1.2 billion at current rates. While specifics of the new financial tools remain undisclosed, analysts anticipate crypto to be a part of X's ecosystem.
Since acquiring Twitter in 2022, Musk has consistently advocated for turning X into an “everything app.” The integration of financial services is a major step in that direction. With money transfer licenses already approved in several U.S. states, X is well-positioned to evolve into a comprehensive platform for communication, payments, and content.
