X moves US creator payouts to its own X Money service

Starting on Wednesday, all US creator payouts from X's Original Content Rewards and subscriptions will be handled through X Money, the app's payment service. X Money payments are now instant, removing the previous two-week processing time and $30 minimum payout. X confirmed that using X Money is now required for US creators, though those outside the US will continue to use Stripe.
