Musk officially integrates virtual currencies and applications into the X platform!

On January 11, 2026, a teaser from Nikita Bier, the product lead of X platform, deserves attention from the Crypto world.

He confirmed that a revolutionary feature called "Smart Cashtags" is about to launch!

Previously: On X, seeing $BTC or $ETH was just a discussion topic, and trading required opening a separate exchange app.

Going forward: When users click on tags like $BTC or $ETH in a post, they will directly see real-time prices, K-line charts, and related discussions across the network. Later, users will be able to trade stocks and cryptocurrencies directly within the platform.

He doesn't just want to earn fees from your trades—he wants your salary, savings, investments, and spending to all be locked within the X ecosystem. If successful, X won't just be a simple social media platform, but rather the operating system controlling your "digital life."
