#Unterhaltungen mit X laufen weiter, so eine Person, die auch mit anderen Social-Media-Plattformen zusammenarbeitet und stabilcoins testet, um Influencer zu bezahlen. X verhandelt darüber, für seine Nutzer – etwa mit einflussreichen Konten – Royalties mithilfe von Stablecoins wie dem USDC von Circle zu zahlen, so eine mit den Plänen vertraute Person. Damit würde Elons Musk’ Befürwortung von Stablecoins weiter ausgebaut, die bereits vom Starlink-Dienst von SpaceX für grenzüberschreitende Zahlungen genutzt werden. Die Gespräche kommen zustande, während X sein Revenue-Sharing-Programm auslaufen lässt und ein Original-Content-Rewards-Programm einführt, das darauf abzielt, Kreative für eigene Ideen, Berichte und Kommentare zu entlohnen.

#Conversations with X are ongoing, according to a person who also works with other social media platforms testing stablecoins to pay influencers.
