X Details Smart Cashtags With Live Prices and Precise Asset Tags Ahead of February Rollout

Early testing gathers feedback before a planned public launch next month.

Overview

  • Users can tag exact stocks, crypto tokens or smart contracts to resolve ticker ambiguity.
  • Tapping a cashtag opens in-timeline pages with live or near–real-time prices, charts and aggregated mentions.
  • X says on-chain assets will update almost in real time, and Solana has confirmed early support.
  • Preview images show buy and sell buttons, though X has not announced any trading execution or partners.
  • The rollout comes as X solicits feedback and navigates moderation and EU DSA scrutiny, building on a 2022 cashtag trial and recent U.S. money-transmission approvals.
