Reply to comment by thesweeterpeter in Elon Musk to turn Twitter into payment platform for dogecoin and crypto by MidoriTea
He can pull it off if he makes the first FDIC-insured crypto bank in the US, and do RFID phone payments. How this is useful is anyone's guess but he can integrate it with a Tesla taxi service and give people more upvotes if they spend more Musk Bucks. It wouldn't be a scam in such a case, just another low rent online-only bank competing with WePay and WU. There is probably a market for this especially if he gets big ticket names like the former President on board. There's enough idiots out there who can beilive FDIC-backed crypto is somehow better than FDIC-backed USDs.

I can't see the FDIC insuring crypto. It's way too volatile.
But I'm not by any means an expert and I've been wrong about crypto a thousand times before.
