X Expands Cashtag System to Include Bitcoin Trading Links
Elon Musk's social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), has expanded its U.S. Cashtag system by integrating links to five external trading platforms—Coinbase, Gemini, Kraken, Interactive Brokers, and Moomoo—for stocks, ETFs, and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin ($BTC). The update allows users to click 'Trade' on supported tickers for a direct route to execute trades via partner apps or websites. X does not process the transactions itself; instead, execution is handled by the respective partners. The Cashtag Partner Program was announced on September 22 and builds upon an earlier feature called Smart Cashtags that linked ticker symbols with real-time data. The new integration provides live price charts alongside related posts before redirecting users to partner platforms for account setup or login. Interactive Brokers is offering a $100 promotional credit for eligible U.S. clients who open accounts through the Cashtag flow. Kraken confirmed its participation, stating that it supports nearly 2,500 assets across centralized and decentralized offerings via this integration.
