This looks pretty explosive.

Platform X recently announced that it will embed real-time price data of cryptocurrencies and stocks directly into the timeline. In simple terms, users can see the price fluctuations of coins like BTC, ETH, BNB, etc., while scrolling through posts, without switching apps.

Imagine a scenario with 700 million active users—people watching news while monitoring the market, with market data and social discussions happening on the same interface. The information stream and price movements are completely intertwined, marking a significant step forward in the democratization of financial information.

This change is actually more "direct" than the launch of Bitcoin spot ETFs. Why? Because it not only allows people to buy products but also integrates market information into daily social interactions. When market fluctuations occur, public sentiment and trading desires form a real-time feedback loop on social platforms.

The high walls of traditional finance are gradually being broken down by this wave of social interaction. The gap between crypto assets and the general public is indeed shrinking with each wave. Behind this evolution is the transfer of financial information access from a few institutions to ordinary people—this is the most realistic aspect of Web3 socialization.

BTC1,46%

ETH0,48%

BNB0,75%

Wait, if we directly insert the coin price into the feed, wouldn't that make it easier to induce impulsive trading...

Oh my god, the crypto world is really about to invade everyday life now? Wait, isn't this just helping the whales harvest retail investors? 700 million people watching the market simultaneously, emotions fluctuate and they follow the trend to buy and sell, it could easily turn into another bloodbath. That said, it's truly impressive that information transparency has improved. But I'm still worried, it's too easy to make impulsive trades. It's basically just moving the exchange onto Twitter, sounds wonderful, but in reality?

Wow, now monitoring the market has directly become a bonus feature for scrolling through tweets. Mixing market trends and public opinion together is really going to blow up.

Another new trick to harvest the little guys? The mafia's favorite thing is to mix trading and emotions together. Alright, whether to buy or not, that's just how it is. 70 million people watching the market at the same time is mind-boggling. Let's see who gets caught as the little guy.

Damn, now we're really going to wipe out all the retail investors, scrolling through tweets while cutting losses haha Isn't this just bringing the casino into the feed? Emotions fluctuate, and people place orders directly, FOMO and FUD fighting on the same screen Speaking of which, with 700 million people watching the market simultaneously, gas fees are probably going to skyrocket. As workers, we can't even afford to stay on the chain anymore Finally, no more jumping back and forth between exchanges and Twitter, but it feels like it's easier to get liquidated This is true financial democratization, but the result of democracy might just be everyone losing money
