[比推] Musk's X platform has made a big move recently - they are hiring a pro for the “X Money” payment platform, aiming to create a brand new payment system for over 600 million monthly active users.
Although the job description doesn't directly mention cryptocurrency, it requires candidates to be proficient in distributed systems and high availability architecture. This signal is quite clear: they may not want to rely on traditional payment channels and plan to roll up their sleeves and do it themselves.
Interestingly, the official Solana account retweeted this job posting and specifically emphasized that “this is an opportunity to change the financial services for hundreds of millions of people.” It's worth noting that in June of this year, Solana advisor Nikita Bier already switched to X as the head of product.
Many people in the circle feel that this matter has a hint of “Xiang Zhuang dancing the sword”. Will the X platform suddenly launch a crypto payment function one day? Solana's support this time feels like it's taking a position in advance.
