儘管有關點對點支付系統的運作和啟動日期的具體細節尚未披露,但 X 的子公司 X Payments LLC 已經在 14 個州獲得了資金傳輸許可證。

這種金融服務的整合符合馬斯克將 X 打造成「一切應用程式」的願景。
Concerns over Musk's influence
對馬斯克影響力的擔憂
Musk's support for Dogecoin has been a driving force in the cryptocurrency's popularity, it has also raised concerns within the Dogecoin community.
馬斯克對狗狗幣的支持一直是加密貨幣流行的推動力,但也引起了狗狗幣社群的擔憂。
Critics, like prominent community member Mishaboar, argue that Musk's influence might be skewing the narrative around Dogecoin, potentially leading to oversimplified solutions to complex issues.
著名社群成員 Mishaboar 等批評者認為,馬斯克的影響力可能會扭曲狗狗幣的敘述,可能導致複雜問題的解決方案過於簡化。
In a recent X post, Mishaboar stressed the danger of the community blindly aligning with Musk's views, especially given his tendency to align with certain political factions and his influence over public opinion.
在最近的 X 貼文中,Mishaboar 強調了社區盲目與馬斯克觀點保持一致的危險,特別是考慮到他傾向於與某些政治派別結盟以及他對公眾輿論的影響力。
Mishaboar's critique extends to Musk's inner circle, arguing that a lack of dissenting voices could lead to an echo chamber effect, where challenging or complex viewpoints are sidelined.
米沙博爾的批評延伸到了馬斯克的核心圈子,他認為缺乏反對聲音可能會導致回音室效應,使具有挑戰性或複雜的觀點被邊緣化。
