X will take one step closer to becoming an "everything app," but despite ample speculation, there's no sign of Dogecoin in the plans yet.

Musk isn’t introducing a novel idea. For years, people have advocated eliminating the penny, as pennies are rarely spent as change. And since the Covid-19 pandemic, more consumers are shopping online or avoiding physical currency altogether .

Musk’s favored meme coin remains Dogecoin. While he has promoted other tokens in the past, this has led to short-term price increases – such as with Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT). However, these surges are often followed by subsequent price drops.
