Elon Musk’s X Quietly Removes Bitcoin, MAGA Emojis From Hashtags

Bitcoin and crypto hashtags on X no longer display emojis automatically.

X did not publicly announce the removal, and the reason behind the apparent change is unclear.

Automatically generated emojis no longer accompany bitcoin and crypto hashtags on the Elon Musk-owned social application X, which houses some of the largest active cryptocurrency communities.

X's social media accounts or press pages did not publicly announce the removal as of European morning hours on Friday.

Crypto users on X started to comment early Friday that they could no longer see emojis when posting “#bitcoin” on the service. Some later found out that hashtags for #bnbchain and #cryptocom, which also showed emojis, no longer display the brand images.
