Short question: would this be the smart way to automatically follow all users with 'bitcoin' in their name?
username:*bitcoin
username:bitcoin*
username:*bitcoin*
I think this way I should catch all variations, no?

does twitter allow wildcard searching?
I have no idea, but is unlikely as typically wilidcards not supported in site searches

Well, it's from your own comments / help / text there... I could use wildcards and such ;pmartin@rootjazz wrote: ↑Sat Oct 28, 2017 8:15 pm does twitter allow wildcard searching?

Hi,
According to your question, what you can do is just detect and follow *bitcoin / bitcoin*
But you can't search for *bitcoin /bitcoin*, You can just match and filter, not search and filter . That type of site search is not allowed.
Also you can search for bitcoin by selecting the user search in follow Tab, it will return some profiles having bitcoin in their names. Probably that is a solution for you.
