Emojis that automatically appeared with hashtags for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are no longer visible on the Elon Musk-owned social platform X.
On July 26, users of the platform began sharing that the emoji no longer appeared when they posted “#bitcoin.” It was later found that hashtags such as “#bnbchain” and “#cryptocom,” which previously displayed brand-specific images, also no longer displayed these emojis.
Additionally, the emoji for #MAGA, which previously displayed an image of Donald Trump, also appears to have been removed.
