Twitter has the ability to track the price of cryptocurrencies

Twitter users can enter an asset’s ticker in search bar. And then get data on its current exchange rate and a chart of price movements

Social network Twitter has integrated cryptocurrency and stock prices into search results using a plugin from charting platform TradingView. The new feature was announced on the site’s official account TwitterBusiness.

This new feature allows users to enter cryptocurrency or exchange tickers into the search bar (with a $ sign in front of the characters). This helps generate the current value of assets in US dollars and a chart of price movements. But our experts also noticed that this result also contains a link to Robinhood trading app.

The added feature was also noted by the head of the social network, Elon Musk. He praised the work of the team and added that this is one of many product improvements that will be added to the “financial” Twitter.

At the end of November, Elon Musk had already announced his intention to make changes to this platform. He confirmed plans to integrate cryptopayments into the social network. Also Elon Musk previously talked about possibility to make payment for subscription to premium service Twitter Blue available in Dogecoin.

Additionally, in the next few weeks we will improve user interface. As well as adding new characters. Our experts believe the transformation of Twitter has just started.
