Elon Musk\u2019s X Set To Launch Trading Features"},"content":{"rendered":"<div>\n<p>Dogecoin may finally get its mainstream moment as Elon Musk\u2019s quest to turn X\u2014n\u00e9e Twitter\u2014into a WeChat-style \u201ceverything app\u201d reaches its most ambitious stage yet. In a wide-ranging <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/3615dfe2-f739-44f7-9823-a8acce6c0380\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">interview<\/a> with the Financial Times, chief executive Linda Yaccarino confirmed that users \u201cwill soon be able to make investments or trades\u201d without leaving the platform, an upgrade that will sit inside a forthcoming digital wallet branded X Money.<\/p>\n<p>The product, due to launch first in the United States later this year, will roll out in partnership with Visa and will eventually extend to peer-to-peer transfers, e-commerce check-outs and, crucially, a brokerage layer for stocks, ETFs and crypto-assets. Yaccarino framed the move as the logical next step in X\u2019s metamorphosis.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ll be able to come to X and transact your whole financial life on the platform,\u201d she told an audience at CES in January, adding that the team is also \u201cexploring\u201d an X-branded debit or credit card that could arrive before year-end. The company has already secured <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/where-is-dogecoin-musks-x-payments-beta\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">money-transmitter licenses<\/a> in forty-one states and the District of Columbia, though New York remains a conspicuous hold-out\u2014a gap that state lawmakers are urging regulators not to fill until consumer-protection questions are settled.<\/p>\n<h2>A Ready-Made Dogecoin On-Ramp<\/h2>\n<p>For the crypto market the headline is obvious: an in-app trading rail built by Dogecoin\u2019s most famous cheerleader. Musk\u2019s relationship with the satirical canine token is long-standing and unusually public.<\/p>\n<p>He began joking about the coin in 2019, called himself \u201cThe Dogefather\u201d on live television in 2021, and has since let customers buy Tesla merchandise in DOGE. In October 2024, a single two-letter reply\u2014\u201cD.O.G.E.\u201d\u2014at a Pennsylvania town-hall last October still blasted the token 15 percent higher in minutes.<\/p>\n<p>But after accepting a role in President Donald Trump\u2019s new <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/dogecoin-not-part-of-d-o-g-e-elon-musk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Department of Government Efficiency<\/a> (DOGE), Musk\u2019s meme output slowed. Musk was named senior adviser when the agency was created on Inauguration Day, 20 January 2025, only to resign in late May amid a policy dispute over federal spending. Since leaving Washington, he has not posted about Dogecoin just once.<\/p>\n<p>Even without explicit promises, the plumbing is falling into place. X\u2019s existing partnership with eToro already lets users click a cashtag such as $DOGE and route straight to an order ticket, a capability added quietly in April 2023. The new wallet is expected to collapse that two-step flow into a single in-app trade.<\/p>\n<p>The uncomfortable reality for X is that advertising revenue is still running a third below the pre-acquisition baseline. Yaccarino insists that \u201c96 percent of former clients have returned,\u201d and forecasts sales of $2.3 billion this year versus $1.9 billion in 2024, but that would merely claw back half the slump from 2022\u2019s $4.1 billion haul.<\/p>\n<p>However, whether Musk will once again unleash his <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/where-is-dogecoin-musks-x-payments-beta\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">formidable meme-making prowess<\/a> to catapult Dogecoin back towards the moon\u2014and in turn give his company\u2019s revenue a similar lift\u2014remains an open question. Dogecoin holders will certainly be hoping for this.<\/p>\n<p>At press time, DOGE was trading at $0.168, showing no significant reaction to the news.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-508933\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DOGEUSDT_2025-06-20_09-19-57.png?resize=1024%2C454\" alt=\"Dogecoin price\" width=\"1024\" height=\"454\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DOGEUSDT_2025-06-20_09-19-57.png?w=3628 3628w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DOGEUSDT_2025-06-20_09-19-57.png?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DOGEUSDT_2025-06-20_09-19-57.png?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DOGEUSDT_2025-06-20_09-19-57.png?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DOGEUSDT_2025-06-20_09-19-57.png?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DOGEUSDT_2025-06-20_09-19-57.png?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DOGEUSDT_2025-06-20_09-19-57.png?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DOGEUSDT_2025-06-20_09-19-57.png?w=1140 1140w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DOGEUSDT_2025-06-20_09-19-57.png?w=3000 3000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dogecoin may finally get its mainstream moment as Elon Musk\u2019s quest to turn X\u2014n\u00e9e Twitter\u2014into a WeChat-style \u201ceverything app\u201d reaches its most ambitious stage yet.
