X is now stepping into financial news and trading—a strategic move that underscores something we already know: social platforms shape how markets move. Whether it's public equities or crypto assets, X drives sentiment and execution at scale, more than almost anywhere else online. The platform's influence on transaction flows and collective market psychology makes this evolution worth watching. As financial features roll out, we'll likely see tighter coupling between discourse and trading activity.

The move to financialize X is essentially just converting the power to manipulate public opinion into cash.

X is involved in financial trading? It should have been done this way a long time ago. To put it simply, it's just formalizing what's already happening.

The financialization of X has long been overdue. How could they pass up a place to harvest the leeks?

ngl, the math on "discourse drives markets" gets way messier once you actually track wallet flows. seen this narrative before—2021 was full of it. discourse amplifies, sure, but execution? that's where the actual patterns get interesting. wonder how many of those "collective" trades are just coordinated whale positioning wrapped in sentiment language tbh.

X's involvement in financial trading... to put it simply, it's about monetizing the power to manipulate public opinion. It's only a matter of time.
