Twitter previews verification badge for NFT profile image

Social media giant Twitter (NYSE:) has given a sneak peek into an in-development tool that will allow its users to set crypto collectibles (verified NFTs) as their profile picture.

Mada Aflak (a senior software engineer at Twitter) shared footage that shows features that enable users to add non-fungible tokens (NFTs), to their accounts. You will have the ability to access your profile, link a wallet and import your OpenSea collection. You can choose from a variety of digital NFT art avatars.
