X will be paid soon

In a live chat on Monday, he announced that the company is moving in the direction of charging users a monthly membership fee to use X systems, according to Yassad News, citing TechCrunch. He claimed that such a change is necessary to deal with the problem of bots on the platform. Malik X explained about this: This is the only way I can think of to deal with the huge army of bots. Since the cost of making each bot is slightly less than a penny (one tenth of a penny), but if a user is going to pay a few dollars to use the systems, the actual cost of producing a bot will be very high. In addition, each time the bot creator wants to create another instance, he must use a new payment method.

Musk did not specify the cost of the new membership fee, but called it a small amount. During the event, Musk shared the new parameters for X and announced that the site has 550 million monthly active users who share 100 to 200 million posts per day. However, it did not specify whether automated user accounts (bots with appropriate functions such as news feeds and bad bots) were also calculated in this statistic.
