Elon Musk confirmed this week that X Money is entering “early public access” in April, marking the first concrete step toward his vision of a financial “everything app.”
But while beta testers are already executing transactions and William Shatner is promoting the interface, one massive expected feature is glaringly absent: Dogecoin (DOGE).
The price of DOGE has rallied by over 8% on speculation alone, but the app itself currently shows no sign of crypto integration.
The real question is whether Musk is saving the crypto rail for a later update, or has the payments platform quietly moved on from its meme coin roots?

What Is X Money and Why Does DOGE Matter?
For those new to the saga, X Money is Musk’s attempt to recreate—and surpass—PayPal, the company he helped found decades ago. Think of it as embedding a wallet like Venmo or Cash App directly inside your X (Twitter) timeline.
According to recent updates, the app allows users to send payments, earn yield (interest on your balance), and set up direct deposits. Musk’s goal has always been an everything app that handles your entire financial life.

So where does Dogecoin fit in? For years, Musk has been the “Dogefather,” teasing that DOGE would become the internet’s native currency. Retail investors have held onto specific Dogecoin price support analysis levels largely based on the belief that X would eventually integrate DOGE for tipping or payments. The logic was that millions of X users would suddenly need DOGE, creating a massive demand shock.
However, beta tests paint a different picture. “Star Trek” actor William Shatner has been promoting the app’s early capabilities for charity auctions, and demonstrations show straightforward fiat (government currency) transactions—like buying coffee at Dunkin’. No crypto wallet is visible yet.

Dogecoin Price Prediction: Does X Money Kill the Rally?
One thing is raising eyebrows right now: Dogecoin is missing from the April launch window for X Money.
That creates a clear tension. Retail traders love the idea of DOGE payments on X, but regulators are a different story. X has already secured dozens of money transmitter licenses, yet crypto approval is a much tougher hurdle.
There is a chance Musk is playing the long game. Launch the fiat payment system first, build trust with partners like Visa, then add crypto later. But partnerships with traditional finance usually come with strict compliance rules, and meme coins can look risky in that environment.
That is why the silence matters. Much of DOGE’s narrative still revolves around Musk. If X Money launches as a simple fiat payment app, the hype premium around Dogecoin could disappear quickly.

Ironically, DOGE is already up about 8% as traders speculate. It is a classic buy-the-rumor setup. The real test will come at launch. If crypto is not even mentioned, we could see a quick sell-the-news reaction.
Technically, $0.10 is the key level to watch. If disappointment pushes price below it, the next supports sit near $0.09 and $0.075. But if Musk hints that crypto integration is coming later, the market could flip bullish just as fast. Right now, traders are basically betting on which version of the story plays out.
