Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and the owner of the X social media platform (formerly known as Twitter), recently sparked a conversation on X about the platform’s user base and potential future integrations.
The discussion began when a user with the handle “DogeDesigner,” known for sharing news related to DOGE and X, announced that X had achieved a significant milestone: 600 million active users. Musk confirmed this information, prompting reactions from both cryptocurrency enthusiasts and regular X users.

The news of X’s user growth was met with enthusiasm from the cryptocurrency community, particularly supporters of Dogecoin (DOGE) and XRP. An account associated with XRP, XRPcryptowolf, praised X for being a platform that prioritizes user freedom.
The Bitrue cryptocurrency exchange also chimed in, expressing its commitment to remain a permanent user of X.
Many X users, including the esatoshiclub account, expressed their desire for DOGE payment integration on the platform. This aligns with Musk’s past comments about DOGE potentially becoming the “Twitter coin” for microtransactions and rewarding content creators.
Another recurring question surrounded the possibility of an “X phone,” a device that could compete with Apple products, especially considering Apple’s recent integration of OpenAI’s ChatGPT technology.
Musk, along with others, has voiced concerns about the privacy implications of ChatGPT, particularly after a former head of the National Security Agency (NSA) joined OpenAI’s board of directors.
These concerns center on the potential for ChatGPT to collect and store user data. Previously, Musk threatened to ban Apple devices from his companies (and for guests visiting those companies) if Apple integrated ChatGPT on a deep level within its iOS operating system.
Just a week before the user growth announcement, Musk highlighted another achievement for X: a significant increase in the total number of “likes” received on posts. This came after the platform implemented a change that made like counts invisible to the public.

This move garnered support from Dogecoin co-founder Billy Markus (known online as Shibetoshi Nakamoto) who reacted with a screenshot from a video game that says “Everyone liked that.”
The recent exchange on X sheds light on the platform’s growing user base and the ongoing conversation surrounding its potential integration with cryptocurrencies. Additionally, it highlights the concerns surrounding data privacy in the age of advanced AI technology.
As X continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how it addresses these issues and what new features it introduces to attract and retain users.
