According to reliable reports, Mark Zuckerberg stated that Meta would integrate NFTs into Instagram. While he did not specify how that would appear, he stated during a South By Southwest event that “over the next several months, the ability to bring some of your NFTs in and maybe mint things within that environment” would be possible.
There had been rumblings that something like this was on the way. Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri stated last year that the team was “actively studying NFTs” but had made no official statements. We learned in January that teams at Facebook and Instagram were developing NFT integrations. The study said that progress had been made on features that would allow users to use an NFT as a profile and mint NFTs on the platform, as well as discussions about developing a marketplace.
