Overview
- Smart Cashtags went live Tuesday on iPhone in the U.S. and Canada and place real-time stock and crypto charts directly inside the conversation.
- Tapping a $ticker now opens a dedicated view with a live price chart and related posts, and X suggests the exact asset users mean to avoid look‑alike names.
- Crypto users can paste a smart contract address to track tokens that are not listed on major exchanges, keeping niche assets visible inside X.
- A Canadian pilot with Wealthsimple adds a trade button on cashtag pages that routes users to a prefilled order screen at the brokerage, with X acting only as a referrer.
- X says web, Android and wider rollouts are coming soon, and analysts note the tighter path from viral posts to trades could speed retail buying as X builds toward its X Money roadmap.
