 <li style="font-weight: 400">Elon Musk’s X is once again causing a stir in the cryptocurrency community by removing crypto emojis, which had been in use for over four years.</li> 
 <li style="font-weight: 400">Bitcoin is not the sole cryptocurrency that has seen its hashtag emoji removed from X amid the Bitcoin 2024 Conference kicking off on July 25.</li>

The crypto community on X is puzzled by the reasons for deleting several crypto emojis – including Bitcoin (BTC) – from the social media platform. 
According to multiple reports, X <a href="https://x.com/newsOcrypt/status/1816708892031627524">removed</a> the Bitcoin hashtag emoji alongside a few other crypto emojis on July 25.

Some <a href="https://x.com/WiseOnSol/status/1816658772166680676">observers</a> speculated that Bitcoin emoji removals from X could negatively impact the Bitcoin price. The removals were not exclusive to BTC though.

Other coins like Crypto.com Coin (CRO) and BNB have also seen their hashtag emojis deleted from X after being adopted in 2020. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> 
 FYI — it wasn't just the Bitcoin hashtag emoji that was removed. Elon mentioned a while back X is getting rid of all the hashtag emojis. It's not a conspiracy or a knock on Bitcoin. You can sleep easy.

As previously reported, X co-founder Jack Dorsey officially debuted the Bitcoin emoji in February 2020. At the time, Bitcoin was trading at around $10,000, according to data from CoinStats.

The crypto community is especially puzzled by the removal of crypto emojis on X, which happened just as the Bitcoin 2024 conference began in Nashville on July 25. 
The conference will feature some massive speakers, including Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. Trump, who has called himself a pro-crypto candidate, will speak at the conference on July 27. 
Before removing cryptocurrency emojis from X, Musk added a dedicated emoji for the Trump-themed meme coin, MAGA (TRUMP), on July 18. The MAGA emoji has also been removed from X. 
The emoji featured the former president with his fist raised in the air after surviving an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania in mid-July.&nbsp; 
Musk shared a photograph shortly after the shooting and declared that he was “fully” endorsing Trump as a presidential candidate.
