The feature essentially lets users connect their crypto wallets and show off their digital assets on Twitter as their profile pictures. At launch, it will support crypto wallets like Coinbase Wallet, Trust, Argent, Rainbow, MetaMask, and Ledger Live. So, users can connect their desired crypto wallet, authenticate their account, select an NFT that they want to set as a profile picture, and show it off to the world. The platform will initially support JPEG and PNG NFTs minted on Ethereum.

Twitter says that the support for NFT profile pictures gives users a way to show their digital non-fungible tokens (NFTs) to the world on the platform.“Twitter is where people go to talk about things they care about, and often where people have their first experience with crypto and NFTs,”the company toldTechcrunchin an email.“We’re now seeing people use NFTs as a form of identity and self-expression, and as a way to join the thriving community and increasingly active conversation on Twitter,”it further added.
