Twitter, Inc. (NYSE: TWTR) revealed that it has decided to roll out iOS support for a nonfungible token, or NFT, hexagonal avatars.  The new feature will be limited to the paid subscribers of Twitter Blue. Users can link their Twitter accounts to crypto wallets where the users store NFT holdings. It includes Coinbase Wallet, Rainbow, MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Argent, or Ledger Live, and make it as their profile pic, in a few seconds.

The new feature development is in its initial stages. Only static pictures, such as JEPG and PNG files, mined on the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain, featuring ERC-721 and ERC-1155 token standards, are currently supported by Twitter. However, if the NFT is sold or transferred while it is still set as a profile image, it will not show any information about its ownership when tapped.

Twitter, like other tech businesses, is seeking to capitalize on crypto developments like NFTs, a sort of financial tool that authenticates digital objects such as images, videos, and virtual world land. Previously, the social media site offered the ability for members to send and receive Bitcoin.

In September, Twitter revealed that it was working on functionality to verify and show NFTs. Many Twitter users are interested in digital goods, so in June, the firm built and issued its own NFTs. Since January 1, 2021, there have been about 256 million tweets concerning NFTs, with the great majority being posted by users in the last six months, according to the business.
