The world’s richest man, Elon Musk, has a new pet project. He is reinventing, and possibly destroying, the site formerly known as Twitter.

Now known simply as X, the iconic blue bird logo is no more. But Musk’s rebrand isn’t purely for aesthetics. It's the beginning of the billionaire’s vision to create a ubiquitous ‘everything app’ of the future.

Today, Reuters financial journalist and long-time watcher of Elon Musk’s business empire, Antony Currie, on Elon’s plan to disrupt the global financial system.
