Twitter Could Soon Enable Trading Stocks, Bitcoin As Elon Musk Reportedly Inks eToro Partnership

Twitter has reportedly announced a new partnership with eToro that will enable users to view market charts and trade stocks and cryptocurrencies.

What Happened: According to CNBC, the move is part of Elon Musk‘s plan to transform Twitter into a super-app that allows users to access multiple services in one place. 

With the eToro partnership, Twitter’s “cashtags” will expand to cover a more extensive range of instruments and asset classes, according to an eToro spokesperson, CNBC quoted. 

Currently, Twitter cashtags show major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin BTC/USD, Ethereum ETH/USD and Dogecoin DOGE/USD. This was in partnership with Robinhood.

Users will also be able to click a “view on eToro” button that takes them directly to eToro’s site, where they can buy and sell assets on the platform. EToro uses TradingView as its market data partner.
