X rolls out Cashtags on iPhone in US & Canada, enabling real-time stock and crypto tracking with in-app price charts tied to posts

X already owns the social graph where most crypto price discovery happens — CT pumps and dumps have always started with a $ticker mention in someone's timeline. Adding native charts and broker links turns every cashtag into an order flow funnel, and whoever captures the crypto routing (Coinbase is the obvious bet given the X Money/Visa stack) gets bigger distribution than any ETF approval ever delivered. iPhone-only, US/Canada-only is clearly regulatory staging while X Money's MSB licenses clear in other jurisdictions. Payment rails + social trading + 500M+ users is the Robinhood killer thesis that Robinhood itself tried to build backwards by adding a social feed nobody used.
