X launches Cashtag trading feature with Interactive Brokers, Coinbase, others
X has rolled out a new feature letting U.S. users trade stocks, ETFs, and cryptocurrencies directly from ticker mentions on their timelines. Tapping a Cashtag now shows a live price chart and related posts, with a 'Trade' button that routes users to partnered brokerages like Interactive Brokers, Moomoo, Gemini, Kraken, and Coinbase to complete transactions.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
This transforms X from a platform for discussing markets into one that can execute trades, deepening its push into finance following the launch of X Money. It also signals Musk's broader ambition to turn X into an all-in-one 'everything app' that blends social interaction with commerce and financial services.
- Cashtags now link directly to trading, not just conversation tracking.
- Initial brokerage partners include Interactive Birds, Moomoo, Gemini, Kraken, and Coinbase.
- The feature builds on X's expanding financial ambitions alongside X Money.
