The goal with the X rename was to make a western equivalent of WeChat, that's a Chinese app for chatting, social media and payment. While X was the name of the payment company Elon had before it got turned into Paypal.
Crux is, outside of the name change, we have yet to see "X" gain any more features that would bring it closer to WeChat, it's still just a broken version of Twitter.
This seems like the most plausible reply I got, but lkke you said, nothing has happened on that front yet
