Elon Musk Drops XChat: Bitcoin-Level Security Meets Messaging
Elon Musk has officially announced XChat — a brand-new messaging app that might just shake up how we talk online. Built using the Rust programming language and backed by Bitcoin-style encryption, It promises next-level privacy and powerful features.
So what makes it so different? Think end-to-end encryption, vanishing messages, file transfers of all types, and video/audio calls — all without needing a phone number. According to Musk, it’s going to work across every platform seamlessly. That alone is a flex.
When asked for a comparison, Musk’s AI assistant Grok had this to say: “XChat is fresh and packed with potential — secure and versatile like Signal but not yet audited. Telegram’s got the crowd but less privacy. Signal’s still the best for security. XChat? It’s for die-hard X users.”
Traders Not Vibing With Bitcoin Right Now
The timing of the XChat launch lines up with a weird mood in the crypto market. While Bitcoin is still holding strong above $104K — sitting at $104,492 at press time — trading volume has dipped by 17%, showing users might be pausing their moves.
With Elon pushing both messaging and crypto innovation, It could be more than just another app. But until it’s audited and proven, the crypto-savvy might want to stay alert.
