Twitter has implemented a new cryptocurrency tool that allows users to check the price of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) by just putting their names or tickers into the search bar.

The new feature is an enhancement to “$Cashtags” and was revealed on December 21 by the Twitter Business account.

People will be able to see a clickable link that takes them to search results that now include pricing graphs for major stocks, exchange-traded funds, and cryptocurrencies whenever they tweet the symbol of a major stock, exchange-traded fund, or cryptocurrency with $ in front of it, according to the account. Simply typing in the ticker symbol of a stock or cryptocurrency will bring up the price graph.

Shortly after, on December 22, Twitter’s ‘interim’ CEO Elon Musk retweeted the new feature’s release, noting that it is one of many product upgrades coming to financial Twitter in the foreseeable future.

Although other coins like as Dogecoin, XRP, and Cardano were not included, Bitcoin variants such as “$Bitcoin,” “Bitcoin price,” and “BTC price” automatically activate the newly added price graphs. Twitter did confirm that more cryptocurrencies will be included in this new financial feature.
