The Watch Money Heist Onlinesaga concerning X and Brazil continues. On Friday, Brazil's Supreme Court stated that X paid its fines to the wrong bank, Reuters reported. This will delay the return of the social media platform to Brazil.
Back in August, Brazil's top court banned X (formerly Twitter) for failing to appoint a legal representative within the country. This came after X owner Elon Musk refused to comply with Brazil's order to take down misinformation and fake news and pay fines for this, which Musk called "censorship orders."

On the latter point, Musk and X have taken hit after hit. In late September, Brazil's Supreme Court said if X wanted to be reinstated, it'd have to pay an additional $5 million in fines after already paying $3.3 million. This Friday, X filed a new request for Brazil to lift its suspension, claiming it paid all the fines. Brazilian Supreme Court justice Alexandre de Moraes responded that X needed to pay its fines to the right bank, according to Reuters. The justice also said that once this is done, Brazil's prosecutor general will consider the company's request.
X's lawyers then apparently denied sending the funds — which amount to around $5.24 million — to the wrong place, according to court documents seen by Reuters. X's counsel also denied the need for the prosecutor general's opinion before X could function in Brazil again.
Mashable has reached out to X for comment.
