- X platform will introduce X Money payment service through a partnership with VISA later in 2025.
- The service will enable instant funding, peer-to-peer payments, and bank transfers via Visa Direct.
- X Payments LLC has secured money transmitter licenses in 40 states plus Washington D.C.
- No explicit mention of cryptocurrency integration in the announced features.
- Dogecoin price stands at $0.32, maintaining gains since Election Day despite recent fluctuations.
X CEO Linda Yaccarino announced the platform’s upcoming financial service, X Money, through a collaboration with Visa. The service, scheduled for release in 2025, aims to integrate payment functionality into the social media platform’s growing suite of services.
The implementation will utilize Visa Direct technology, enabling users to fund their X Wallet instantly and conduct peer-to-peer transactions using debit cards. The system will also support direct bank account transfers, marking X’s formal entry into financial services.
Regulatory Compliance and Infrastructure
X’s financial infrastructure development has progressed steadily, with X Payments LLC securing money transmitter licenses across 40 states and Washington D.C. This regulatory groundwork positions the platform to operate legally within the U.S. financial system.
Visa has previous experience in cryptocurrency integration, as evidenced by their October partnership with Coinbase, which enabled crypto purchases and withdrawals through Visa debit cards.
Market Impact and Cryptocurrency Speculation
While cryptocurrency integration remains unconfirmed for X Money, Dogecoin‘s market performance continues to reflect speculation around Elon Musk‘s business decisions. The cryptocurrency’s value doubled from $0.16 on Election Day to its current price of $0.32, despite falling from its December peak of $0.48.
The connection between Musk and President Donald Trump has increased Dogecoin‘s mainstream visibility, particularly through references to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) initiative.
Recent events, such as the temporary appearance of the Dogecoin mascot on DOGE’s website, have triggered price volatility in the cryptocurrency market.
