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

What is X Money and why is DOGE important?
For those new to the story, X Money is Musk’s attempt to reinvent and surpass PayPal, the company he helped found decades ago. Think of it as putting a wallet like Venmo or Cash App right on your X (Twitter) tab.
According to the latest updates, the app allows users to send payments, earn income (interest on your balance) and set up direct deposits. Musk’s goal has always been an app that manages your entire financial life.

So where does Dogecoin fit in? For years, Musk has been the “father of DOGE” and teased that DOGE would become the original currency of the internet. Retail investors have been holding specific levels of Dogecoin price support analysis mainly on the belief that X will eventually consolidate DOGE for payment or payment. The logic was that millions of X users would suddenly need DOGE, creating a huge demand shock.
However, beta tests show a different picture. “Star Trek” actor William Shatner promoted the program’s early opportunities for charity auctions, and the shows featured live fiat (public currency) transactions — like buying a coffee at Dunkin’. No crypto wallets found yet.

Dogecoin Price Prediction: Will X Money Kill The Rally?
One thing is currently raising eyebrows: Dogecoin is not in the April launch window for X Money.
This creates an obvious tension. Retailers love the idea of DOGE payments at X, but regulators are a different story. X has already secured dozens of money transmitter licenses, but crypto approval is a much tougher hurdle.
Musk’s opportunity is in the long game. Start a fiat payment system first, build trust with partners like Visa, and then add crypto. But partnerships with traditional finance usually come with strict compliance rules, and meme coins seem risky in that environment.
That’s why silence is important. Much of the DOGE story still revolves around Musk. If X Money starts as a simple fiat payment app, the premium hype surrounding Dogecoin could quickly disappear.

Ironically, DOGE is already up about 8% as traders speculate. This is a classic rumor setup. The real test comes at launch. If crypto is not even mentioned, we can see a quick reaction to selling the news.
Technically, $0.10 is a key level to watch. The next supports will sit near $0.09 and $0.075 if the pessimism pushes the price below that. But if Musk hints that crypto integration is coming later, the market could soon rise. Currently, traders are mostly betting on which version of the story will play out.
