On Thursday, Twitter announced that some users will be able to import NFTs from their cryptocurrency wallets\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> and use them as profile images on the popular social media platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the time being, the service is only available to individuals who subscribe to Twitter Blue and sign up for the “Labs” feature. Twitter is also restricting the rollout to iOS users, but claims that Android and web users will be able to see when a user switches their profile picture to an NFT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The NFT will appear as a soft hexagon over all surfaces where your avatar<\/a> is visible once you've been validated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People may discover more about the art, its collection, provenance, and more by tapping on it “The new feature, which uses the API of premier NFT marketplace OpenSea, was announced by Twitter in a press release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A video with loud music was also created by Twitter, showing individuals starting their days by changing their avatars to their NFT:<\/p>\n\n\n

According to a Twitter spokesman, the firm is restricting the distribution to Blue customers for the time being in order to gather feedback on the NFT functionality and make necessary adjustments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can connect their NFTs through a variety of wallets, including MetaMask, Rainbow, and Coinbase, according to another Twitter Blue video. Twitter's Blue service<\/a>, which costs $2.99 a month in the United States, includes a slew of other premium features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The announcement on Thursday underscores the company's recent determination to prioritize crypto across all of its products, including Bitcoin payments and NFTs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because many crypto users are active on Twitter, the new NFT function is anticipated to increase membership numbers for the Blue service, bringing in fresh money for the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Twitter isn't the only digital behemoth betting big on quantum computing and the “metaverse.” According to reports, Facebook, which just changed its name to Meta, is planning to launch its own NFT marketplace<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
