X aims to forge a new path this year by fusing finance, artificial intelligence and social media within its ecosystem.

On December 31, CEO Linda Yaccarino previewed upcoming features that will provide users with broader capabilities beyond traditional social media interactions.

Yaccarino said that in 2025, users of the platform will experience unprecedented ways to connect and engage.

Yaccarino shared a preview of upcoming developments, including deeper integration of the Grok AI chatbot, the launch of XMoney, and XTV.

Yaccarino added: “In 2025, X will connect you like never before. XTV, XMoney, Grok and more.”

The changes are consistent with developments expected after Musk acquires X in 2022.

Musk X's big move in 2025: finance, AI, and social networking in one to create a super application

Musk has repeatedly stressed that he wants X to be an "app that does everything" where users can engage in everything from content sharing to financial transactions in one ecosystem.

Additionally, X’s fintech journey began in 2024 with the announcement of a peer-to-peer payment system, but the launch of the system has faced delays since then.

Despite missing the launch date, the company has achieved important milestones, obtaining money transmission licenses in multiple states across the United States, including major markets such as California, Illinois, and Virginia.

This development sets the stage for X to compete with established financial platforms like PayPal.

Market observers believe that adding payment functionality will increase user engagement and make transactions as seamless as sharing content. This feature will further solidify X's position as a digital interaction hub.
