Months after it integrated Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) into Instagram for American users, Meta Platforms announced the expansion of the allowance to as many as 100 other countries.
The test launch for the NFTs on Instagram was made announced in May to select creators in the U.S.
The functionality will now let users in other continents, including the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific. With the enhanced allowance, users will now be able to upload their NFTs as profile pictures and even in their stories. The Meta Platforms functionalities for the NFTs on Instagram will permit users to input the description for the digital collectable as well.
The authenticity of the uploaded NFT can easily be verified, and users can always tag the digital collectable’s page and creator for additional proof of claim.
In addition to the expansion announcement, Meta Platforms also revealed that it has increased the number of compatible blockchain networks to include Flow from Dapper Labs. Based on this, investors can now upload their NFTs from Ethereum, Polygon, and Flow, respectively.
The company also aims to make global access to its NFT functionality on Instagram a seamless one and has also added support for Coinbase and Dapper Wallets in a bid to complement Rainbow, MetaMask, and Trust Wallet, which it integrated earlier.
Meta Platforms is taking its Web3.0 and Metaverse drive seriously as the company is nurturing a future that is bound to dominate social media interactions. While the entire concept of the metaverse is still relatively vague, companies like Meta Platforms are notably developing innovations within the confines of trademark applications they have applied for.
Besides Instagram, NFT testing for Facebook is also gaining momentum, with trials launched in early July this year. Besides Meta, other social media platforms, including Twitter and Reddit, are also taking their NFT drives to new heights.
