Elon just dropped a bombshell: that 25-year-old vision? It's happening now. X is morphing into what he's calling the Western "money database."
This isn't some half-baked payments bolt-on. We're talking about the original everything app he sketched out back in '99 when X.com first launched—before the whole PayPal saga kicked off after the merger.
The guy's literally circling back to his first big bet. That early vision of a super-app that handles your entire financial life? He never really let it go. Now he's got the platform, the user base, and apparently the will to make it real this time around.

It's been 25 years and you're still talking about this dream. Can it really be realized this time?

Wait, is he really going to turn X into a financial platform? Is this guy serious?

We have started.
Another unbelievable promise, let's wait and see.
Going round and round, it's still this trap, it would be strange if it could be done.
It's been 25 years and still dreaming, wake up.
X Financialization? How come this again.
