Dogecoin Community Hopes for Integration

#DOGE monthly looks bullish to me I don’t know why. Printed higher lows on this big correction showing HTF growth. X payments can send this soaring. Come on Uncle @elonmusk a pump for Christmas is all we’re asking !!! pic.twitter.com/61LzcJfXz0

Following Solana's post, members of the crypto community began speculating about a potential collaboration between X Money and Solana. One user wrote, "Time to get Solana integrated with X Money," while another user questioned if X Money would be built on Solana.
A Solana enthusiast directly urged Elon Musk to build X Money on Solana, citing its "fastest" rail capabilities, Visa-level speed, and sub-penny fees.

Build @X Money on the fastest rails. SOL belongs in the Everything App. ✊
Despite Musk's public support for cryptocurrencies and the community's enthusiasm, there has been no official confirmation of X Money partnering with or supporting any specific blockchain or crypto network.
Musk's Broader Crypto Stance
Elon Musk has consistently demonstrated a strong belief in cryptocurrencies and has frequently voiced his support for virtual assets.
In the past, when discussing the idea of a new political party, he confirmed that such a party would embrace Bitcoin. More recently, he suggested in a podcast that energy-based Bitcoin could potentially replace traditional money in a future where energy becomes the primary unit of value.
