X has launched a new feature called Cashtags that allows users to access real time charts and market data for stocks and cryptocurrencies directly inside the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rollout is currently available to iPhone users in the United States and Canada, with Canadian users also able to place trades through a pilot integration with Wealthsimple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How the Cashtags Feature Works<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

X product lead Nikita Bier announced the launch on April 14, highlighting X\u2019s role as a major source of financial discussion for traders and investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He explained that Cashtags function similarly to hashtags, but are focused on financial assets. They use dollar sign tickers for stocks and cryptocurrencies, turning them into clickable links that connect users to detailed market information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previously, these tickers only highlighted mentions without offering deeper functionality. Now, when users search or post a cashtag, X suggests relevant assets, including both stocks and crypto tokens, allowing users to select the correct one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tapping a cashtag opens posts mentioning the asset along with a live price chart, all within the app. This design allows users to connect market discussion with actual price movement without switching to external tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bier also noted that users can act on this information directly. In Canada, a partnership with Wealthsimple enables users to place trades by tapping a button that redirects them to the brokerage platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the infrastructure side, Solana confirmed support for Cashtags, with token pricing powered by Jupiter Exchange, historical data provided by Birdeye, and technical infrastructure supported by Dialect and Helius.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feature Long in Development<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea behind Cashtags is not new. It was briefly tested in 2022 using data from TradingView and eToro. Former X chief executive Linda Yaccarino later indicated that in app trading features were being considered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interest in the feature grew again earlier this year when Bier mentioned plans to expand crypto related tools on X while reducing spam and low quality content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early reactions from users have been largely positive. The account Autism Capital described the tool as impressive, noting that searching $BTC now brings up charts alongside related posts, making it easier to track sentiment across markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some users also suggested expanding the tool beyond finance into areas such as sports and live events, with Bier responding humorously that rapid development was possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The launch arrives during a period of renewed strength in crypto markets, with Bitcoin recently rising above seventy five thousand dollars to a one month high, while Ethereum reached around two thousand four hundred dollars.#crypto#cryptonews https:\/\/coinsignals.net<\/a> https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
