    Good good. That will kill it faster.

      While I share your sentiment completely, I have a bad feeling that this is the beginning of something bigger. AFAIK the Twitter purchase was Musk’s first venture into building an everything app, and he already owns x.com. I think this is one of the first steps.

        I don’t think we should worry about an app we will never use. :)

          Let me think about potential competitors to such an app… oh, the internet. Is he just trying to launch a new browser?

        It just sounds like a banking app you can use to text with. Why would I want to use that?

        Just because Musk thinks it’s a good idea doesn’t mean it will actually succeed. This will fail just like everything else he’s tried at twitter has failed. He’s delusional.

        In conversation with Ron Baron a month later, Musk said he will execute the X product plan “with some improvements” which will make Twitter “the most valuable financial institution in the world.”[29]

        Yeah, sure Elon.
