Since the merger has not been officially announced, it is unlikely to have an immediate impact on the Twitter app in the short term. However, a corporate restructuring could be Elon Musk’s first move to turn Twitter into an “everything app” called X.

In an Oct. 4 tweet, Elon Musk called the Twitter acquisition “an accelerator for Create X, the App for Everything.” The billionaire plans to revamp the app along the lines of the Chinese WeChat.

The primary function of the Everything app will be payments. In the past, there have been many rumors about Twitter coining and integrating cryptocurrencies such as Dogecoin as a means of payment.

For the Dogecoin community, the merger of X with Twitter Inc may mean that the time is approaching when Musk will announce Dogecoin as a payment method within X.
