What happened
X has launched a feature that allows U.S. users to view real-time charts and begin trades by tapping cashtags such as $BTC or $TSLA. Users complete transactions through partner platforms, including Interactive Brokers, Kraken, Coinbase, Moomoo, and Gemini. X does not act as a broker; the actual buying and selling occurs on the partner exchanges.

Why it matters
The move advances X's effort to become a broader financial hub by connecting market discussions directly with trading services. This feature allows users to act quickly on financial chatter on the platform without leaving the app for long.
