X is a social media platform that allows users to share and interact with short posts, previously known as tweets. It was launched in 2006 and became popular for its real-time updates and character-limited messages, which encourage quick communication and public discussions. After being acquired by Elon Musk in 2022, the platform was rebranded from Twitter to X, with a vision to evolve into an "everything app" that includes features like payments, audio/video communication, and content creation tools, in addition to social networking. Users can follow accounts, reply to posts, share media, and engage with trending topics using hashtags. X also offers verified accounts and premium subscriptions for enhanced visibility and tools. The platform is significant for its impact on public opinion and its role as a direct communication channel between public figures and the audience.

Arizona Governor Shoots Down Plans For State Bitcoin Reserve

Arizona’s governor has vetoed legislation that would have let the state invest in cryptocurrency. “The Arizona State Retirement System is one of the strongest in the nation because it makes sound and informed investments,” Gov. Katie Hobbs wrote Friday (May 2) in a letter to state Sen.
