Stock trading is coming to Twitter. And, reportedly, crypto trading.
Via a new partnership with eToro, users can now make use of eToro’s market charts on a range of financial investments, simply by searching for the relevant “cashtag,” usually by putting a “$” sign in front of the ticker, like “$TSLA” for Tesla stock.
A chart then appears, reflecting the asset’s 24-hour price performance along with a link that says “View on eToro” where users can then view more in-depth market information and purchase the asset, along with other assets offered by the platform.
Despite reports that the integration would also include cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin, the social media platform has yet to deliver.
Nothing appears when searching for a variety of crypto cashtags on the platform.
An eToro representative told Decrypt via email that they were “having the same issue” when searching the BTC cashtag. “We are checking this with Twitter so hopefully it will be resolved soon,” they said.
