Meanwhile, the Solana (SOL) blockchain network also stepped in and shared the latest job posting on X.
Members of the crypto community began speculating whether X Money will collaborate with Solana. Musk has dropped no hints so far regarding X Money supporting cryptocurrencies.
"Time to get Solana integrated with X Money," wrote a Solana builder. Another user wondered if X Money is going to be on Solana.
A Solana enthusiast tagged Musk and urged him to build X Money on Solana, the "fastest" rail, which he said offers Visa-level speed at sub-penny fees.
Despite Musk's public support for cryptocurrencies, there isn't any confirmation of X Money partnering with or supporting any blockchain or crypto network.
