Elon Musk’s X has officially launched "Smart Cashtags," a new built-in feature to track crypto and stock prices directly in the feed.
What’s new:
Precision: It distinguishes between stocks, crypto, and even specific smart contract addresses.
Real-time data: No more switching to TradingView or Yahoo Finance; the charts are right in your timeline.
Context: Clicking a cashtag (like $BTC) now shows both the live price and the most relevant discussions.
Nikita Bier (Head of Product at X) says hundreds of billions are deployed based on what people read on the platform.
Is X finally becoming the "Financial Everything App" Musk promised? Does this make terminal-style apps like Bloomberg or Terminal redundant for retail?
