Twitter expands crypto price index feature with over 30 tokens<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The new features are a part of the “$Cashtags” feature that the social media behemoth launched on December 21, according to the Twitter Business account. The first two cryptocurrencies to use the new functionality were Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the tokens found include Tether USDT, XRP, Binance USD, ADA, SOL, MATIC, LTC, DAI, AVAX, UNISWAP, DOGE, and SHIBA INU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given that Elon Musk, the newly appointed CEO of Twitter, has often expressed his support for the cryptocurrency, the Dogecoin Twitter community was thrilled with the inclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time of writing, there were a few conspicuous absences, including Tron, Lido Staked Ether (stETH), Polkadot, and BNB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Ethereum Classic, Bitcoin Cash, Stellar, Internet Computer (ICP), Decentraland, and The Sandbox are among other tokens that have been introduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It's unclear how the tokens would ultimately be added, but according to the first tweet from the Twitter Business account, additional cryptocurrencies will keep being added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The price index is believed to get its information from TradingView, but it also has a link that directs users to the cryptocurrency's page on the Robinhood online trading platform.<\/a> However, no collaboration deal between the two has been made public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since taking over Twitter, Musk has provided hints as to what “Twitter 2.0” would include, including the potential addition of cryptocurrency-based payments on the platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
