  "textContent": "Elon Musk’s push to expand X into a full financial platform is moving into a new phase, with the company preparing early public access for its X Money app in April. The rollout marks the first time the broader user base will be able to test the service after months of limited previews shared by early beta participants. Musk confirmed the timeline in a post on Tuesday, signaling that the company is ready to open the doors to a wider audience.\n\nThe app is designed to function as a comprehensive payments tool that supports direct deposits, yield features, and peer‑to‑peer transfers. Early testers have compared its capabilities to established services like Venmo and Cash App, positioning X Money as a potential competitor in the crowded digital payments space. Musk has repeatedly described the project as a key step toward transforming X into an all‑purpose financial hub.\n\n## Stay In The Loop and Never Miss Important Crypto News\n\nSign up and be the first to know when we publish\n\n## Early access expands while crypto remains missing\n\nPublic attention around the launch has grown in recent days as actor William Shatner promoted his own involvement with the platform. Shatner, who was invited by Musk to test the app, is auctioning off early beta access to raise funds for his Hollywood Charity Horse Show. A $1,000 donation grants supporters the ability to join the beta and begin using X Money’s features ahead of the broader release.\n\nAs more users begin experimenting with the app, many have highlighted its smooth interface and straightforward payment tools, including simple purchases such as buying coffee or transferring funds to friends. Yet despite Musk’s long history of championing Dogecoin, the platform still shows no sign of integrating the meme‑driven cryptocurrency. The absence has surprised many who expected DOGE to play a role in the app’s early stages, especially given Musk’s frequent public endorsements.\n\n✨\n\nREAD NEXT: Zuckerberg's Meta Explores Stablecoin Payments Across its Social Platforms\n\nRumors of crypto support have circulated for a while now, fueled by Musk’s comments and the company’s broader ambitions to build a financial ecosystem within X. Even so, the company has not provided any concrete details about whether Bitcoin, Dogecoin, or any other digital asset will be supported. The lack of clarity has left many questioning whether crypto will be part of the platform at all or whether it may be introduced at a later stage once the core payment features are fully established.\n\nDespite the uncertainty, DOGE has seen a noticeable uptick in trading activity, rising more than 8% over the past day. The move appears to reflect speculation that the app’s launch could eventually lead to some form of crypto integration, even if no such feature exists today.",
