it's like how facebook is used as a messenger, gaming, dating, and marketplace app. musk was ambitious with his shift from twitter, a social media, to x. he may have had the idea before, a website where you do everything, but wechat realized that and he wanted to follow that model. his success in financing paypal back in the day makes him want to utilize x as banking and money transfer. needing to pay for your blue checkmark was step one of that. i can't find the ad they put in everyone's feed earlier when he started paying certain people for using it, but the goal was clearly stated.
