According to @rovercrc, Elon Musk's social media platform X is preparing to launch investment and trading features 'soon,' as stated by CEO Linda Yaccarino. The move aims to transform X into an 'everything app' for financial services, which could significantly impact the crypto market given Musk's known advocacy for Dogecoin (DOGE) and Tesla's substantial Bitcoin (BTC) holdings. This development parallels the push by the TON-based protocol Affluent to turn the messaging app Telegram into a financial super app for decentralized finance (DeFi). Affluent, co-founded by a former TON Foundation director, plans to offer lending pools and yield strategies directly within Telegram, aiming to simplify the user experience and boost DeFi adoption. For traders, these parallel moves by two major platforms signal a potential surge in mainstream crypto integration, creating speculative interest around associated assets like DOGE, BTC, and especially The Open Network's TON.
