Bitcoin (and Ethereum) Trends on Twitter

On September 1st, as Bitcoin and Ethereum surged higher, hashtags for both of the cryptocurrencies briefly trended on Twitter in some parts of the world.

Many of the most popular tweets about Bitcoin today were in regards to the asset’s recent price performance. Other popular tweets included popular news events, like PornHub accepting BTC and a major European stock exchange listing a BTC investment product.

This is at least the third time Bitcoin has trended on Twitter in the past two months, according to NewsBTC’s coverage of the matter.
