@DaveRamsey this is like half a thought...having a high credit score is a good thing generally speaking, but it's hard to tell what point you're making without more context...
So, yes, it is possible. You can apply to trademark a hashtag. In order to do so, you must provide a good or service to the general public that the hashtag in question is associated with.
While hashtags are inherently designed to used and shared socially, there are instances where you may want to have protection, such as in cases where the hashtag has your trademarked business name or slogan for instance.
One question to ask first is, why would you want to protect a hashtag from being used without your consent? Isn't the point of social media to be social?
Well, for starters, it is too short of a piece of writing to be protected by copyright. It's not an invention or idea that can be protected by a patent. So, the only form of protection left that could possibly apply here is a trademark.
You've come up with a catchy hashtag for your business and you want to protect it...is this possible? Can you protect your hashtag under IP law? (thread)

@Entrepreneur Wait until people understand how NFTs will let them sell and trade their digital purchases (games, music albums, movies, etc.) in the near future. While still just the tip of the iceberg, I think that will be one of the eye openers for the general public.
.@LionShirdan explores the role #IntellectualProperty will play in the future of #NFTs and how, inevitably, digital art will soon be subject to the same laws that govern other art forms that preceded them. #NFTLaw#Metaverse

Of course these are old news to us as we watch such practices for years. Those that lost something usually asked for troubles on their own.
