Soon after distancing himself from Donald Trump's government, Elon Musk has again taken charge of his business. This time he has launched a new and powerful feature XChat on his social media platform X. This feature works exactly like WhatsApp, where users will now be able to do direct messaging, voice calls, and video calling. The most important thing is that you will not even need anyone's number for this.
Now chatting and calling will be even more secure.
Elon Musk himself said in his X post that end-to-end encryption will be available in XChat. This means that your chat will be completely safe. No one will be able to hack or leak it.
The most important thing is that users will also get the option of vanishing messages (i.e. messages that disappear automatically after a certain time). However, it has not been clarified yet how this feature will work.
What can you do with XChat?
Voice and video calls can be made without a number through Musk's new feature. You can share any kind of file. You can send vanishing messages. These messages automatically disappear after a limited time.
Secure signup by setting a PIN.
XChat, built on Rust technology, has been developed on a programming language called Rust. It is known for its speed and safety. According to the company, encryption protocols like Bitcoin have been used in it. This means that your privacy will be completely safe.
How to use XChat?
By the way, this feature has been started for the beta version and paid subscribers at present. If you see the option of XChat in the left sidebar of your X app, then you can sign up by entering a 4-digit PIN. If any error comes, it means that the feature is not active for you right now.
Competition with WhatsApp and Telegram
After the launch of XChat, Musk's platform X will now compete directly with popular messaging apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal. Now it remains to be seen whether this bet on Musk will be as much of a hit as his other innovations have been.
