The social media platform is integrating a way to sign post who has managed to get hold of authentic NFTs, versus those who have done a sneaky right click and save. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Twitter is supporting a number of crypto wallets that people can connect to their profiles, allowing them to show off their NFT owner status. These include Argent, Coibase Wallet, Ledger Live, MetaMask, Rainbow, and Trust Wallet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">gm! <br><br>You asked (a lot), so we made it.

Rather than a soft hexagon though, it will revert to a common circle. This indicates that, in the eyes of the blockchain, they are no longer the rightful owner of the NFT. Whilst only iOS users have the ability to set hexagonal profile pictures, all users, regardless of platform, will be able to view them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Should you come across someone with a hexagonal profile picture and wish to learn more, you can click on the hexagon. You can then select ViewNFT details, and find out about the \u201cNFT owner, NFT description, collection, properties, and additional details.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that there will be much more transparency around who is part of the real Twitter NFT gang. Whether that matters to you or not is another story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twitter Blue subscribers and iOS users will be able to authenticate their crypto tokens with new hexagon-shaped NFT profile pictures.
