X Money is coming
FR ^ | Sep 25 | RF

Posted on 09/25/2025 7:09:13 AM PDT by RandFan

Just a heads up Freepers I heard X money is coming to the X platform soon backed by VISA and licensed in nearly every U.S. state it will allow for instant money transfers from debit or credit cards and such.

It could be a big deal and it's not easy to do this. I dont know how Elon Musk plans to integrate it but I'm sure he has plans.

Maybe FR will take it?

It sounds to me like it will be similar to PayPal. Musk was one of the original founders/backers of PayPal...

It’s not that hard to do, honestly. Stripe, VISA, Discover, PayPal have done this with third parties for years. If he makes CRYPTO based, that will be a big deal.

Only to be sacked by his co founders including Peter Thiel when he went to Australia for the Olympics.
They waited for him to be out of town before kicking him out.
However, he and Peter Thiel made up long ago.

Will it be tied 1:1 to the U.S. dollar or will it be an investment opportunity like Bitcoin?

If it is an investment, how do we get in early?

“He might have to call it something else unless they can do some deal with that company”

That IS his company!

Yeah, I don't think it's his company either. His name is nowhere on their about page, plus;

Card payment services under the xMoney brand are provided by Capital Financial Services S.A., an electronic money institution licensed by the National Bank of Romania under authorization number IEME-RO-0001, issued on 25 April 2013.

The company’s headquarters are located at 48 Iancu de Hunedoara Blvd., Crystal Tower, 6th Floor, District 1, Bucharest, Romania.

My impression of PayPal and other FinTech...

On line bank accounts and ATM-Debit cards for people with no (or poor) credit ratings and for people living in countries with out a reliable banking or credit system.

Is that a reasonably accurate definition?

Thanks in advance for your comments.

Yes but it takes years of meticulous planning

You literally named all the big players who have been through the process

It’ll just be USD

But I suspect Crypto will be part of it in time

It’s just a form of payment not investment I think

Not really. He had a failed attempt at a company that PayPal bought. No major player in their success at all.

There is no reason FR could not take bitcoin & Ether right now, all that would be needed is a wallet address.

it is very easy to setup Exodus and get a wallet address for these

Yes. Exodus is excellent and user friendly

I was thinking of doing a crypto project something like an escrow system but the regulations are onerous with the licensing, fee’s and they treat you like a criminal enterprise

I see lots of bloggers and sites that have crypto donation links?

I wonder how they do it

YouTube and Google weren’t originally what they are now.

Right. And you didn’t invest in Youtube 1.0 and Google 1.0 with the idea that you would use them just as they were then for the rest of your life.
