🗣 X "pumped up" Cashtags — a step towards built-in trading
On X (Twitter), the Cashtags feature has been seriously upgraded, allowing users to track stock and cryptocurrency prices directly from their feed.
How it was before: — the price was shown next to the ticker; — hovering over it displayed a simple mini-chart; — the feature has existed since 2012 but was often disabled, especially after rebranding.
What has changed now: — typing a cashtag brings up a search for stocks and crypto with price and percentage change; — clicking opens a full chart and detailed information about the asset; — Buy / Sell buttons have appeared, resembling a foundation for future built-in trading.
X is gradually transforming from a social network into a financial platform.
