X Turns Into a One‑Stop Trading Hub

X, the platform owned by Elon Musk, plans to let people buy and sell stocks and crypto right from their feeds in just a few weeks. The new tools, called “Smart Cashtags, ” will let users click on ticker symbols in posts and make trades directly through the app. The move comes as X is about to open a beta test of its own payment system, X Money. Musk said the service is already live in internal tests and will be offered to a small group of users within one or two months.The goal is to turn X into a single place where people can chat, post, send money and invest—all without leaving the app. Musk has called this a step toward his “everything app” dream, comparing it to adding banking services inside the platform. Other Musk companies have already dipped into crypto. Tesla holds about 11, 500 bitcoins after buying a large amount in 2021, while SpaceX owns around 8, 300.
