Elon Musk's X to launch peer-to-peer payments this year

Elon Musk's X to launch peer-to-peer payments this year | Payments Ecosystem | Scoop.it
Elon Musk's social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, announced it will launch peer-to-peer payments this year.
Vineet Anand's insight:

X as part of it 2024 strategy plans introduce P2P payments around in Q2/Q3 of this year. X has 14 MT licenses with more in stages of approval. 

Part of X strategy (Musk) is to create a WeChat like super app that he calls 'everything app' and to take over entire financial lives without a bank account. As Musk states X will bring “the power of living more of your life in one place". 

Super apps have not seen traction outside of Asian markets - do they have a place for developed markets with the growing workforce of Melliniials and Gen-X that will dominate commerce(banking, payments, investments...) and are digital savvy consumers.
