What the hell, you can actually play it like this? I didn’t do anything, and suddenly there was an extra amount of US dollars in X Money.
This morning, a bunch of English-language X creators ran into the same thing.
When someone opened their account, they found a payment that appeared out of nowhere.
At first, everyone thought maybe some rich person was randomly tossing money around on X.
But after checking, it turns out that’s not it.
The money comes from a meme coin发行 platform.
The mechanism is pretty simple: when someone issues a meme coin, they can designate a portion of the transaction fees to a specific X creator.
After that, as long as the coin gets traded and generates fees, the platform converts the fees into dollars and deposits them directly into that creator’s X Money.
The most outrageous part is that the creator themselves might not even know.
No registration, no authorization—heck, you don’t even need to know the platform. The money just shows up.
It’s pretty much like someone suddenly sending you money into your WeChat.
So far, 553 X accounts have received payments, with a total amount of about $1.08 million.
And it looks like X official employees are even fairly supportive of this kind of玩法.
