Every body is doing payments. So I don't see how this could boost Twitter's profits. Probably a money sink because payments is hard and extremely regulated.

Twitter should focus on creating a market place for creators to sell digital goods to their followers or a way to subscribe.

They can put Substack into Twitter.

To integrate substack or patreon like service into twitter so that there is two financial transaction between users and creators on twitter from which twitter can get a cut.
