Twitter Crypto Price Index Feature Now More Than 30 Tokens

The current prices of ETH, BTC, XRP, DOGE, LTC, BUSD, SOL, ADA, DAI, AVAX, UNI, SHIB, BNB, USDC, OKD, LIDO, DOT, TRX, BCH, XLM, MANA, and SAND, among other cryptocurrencies, may now be searched. Elon Musk, the platform’s new CEO, is a fervent advocate for DogeCoin (DOGE).
