As many people's first interaction with crypto happens on Twitter, we want to make it easier for them to interact with the community. , Twitter, via statement.
Once an NFT goes live, other Twitter users will be allowed to view the NFT to see information about the artist and their collection.
We recognize that NFTs are a powerful monetization tool for creators and want to support those making this art by making it easier than ever for them to participate, Twitter, via statement.
Though the new feature is meant to
showcase verified NFTs, some say it will
make it too easy for users to add
any NFT as their profile picture.
That means someone can just right-click-save any NFT, mint it, and then use it as their PFP (profile picture). , Adam Hollander, Twitter user and NFT entrepeneur, via ZDNet.
In response, Twitter said, "We don't want to gatekeep NFT collections that might not necessarily be verified by a certain marketplace.".
We wanted to give customers an easier way to see NFT details directly from someone's profile picture and at the same time have the ability to explore the contract address more easily. , Twitter, via statement
