The account users can observe that when they write a dollar sign in front of the symbol of a major stock exchange-traded fund or crypto in a Tweet and share it, the views can tap on a clickable link on the same and the link will take them to search results that will also show them graphs of those symbol prices.

After which, Elon Musk took over the social media giant, and he led the plans to invest $1.5 billion of Tesla’s balance sheet into bitcoin, of which most part has now been sold.

The company shares a Tweet, “In the coming weeks, we’ll refine the user experience and expand our coverage of symbols.”
