Meta has announced that social media giant Instagram will be introducing a non-fungible tokens (NFTs) marketplace that will run with the support of Polygon.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“Creators will soon be able to make their own digital collectables on Instagram and sell them to fans, both on and off Instagram,” Meta\u00a0announced<\/a>\u00a0in an updated blog post.<\/p>\n

According to Meta, users will get an end-to-end toolkit starting on the Polygon blockchain. The kit will consist of the creation and showcasing to finally selling.<\/p>\n

Through this new feature, users can easily buy and sell NFTs within Instagram, eliminating other middle persons.<\/p>\n

Although this new feature has already been available to a small number of users in the U.S, Meta said that they would launch it fullscale in other countries. This move is towards Meta’s goal of expanding into the crypto ecosystem.<\/p>\n

According to Meta’s commerce fintech and web3\u00a0lead<\/a>\u00a0Stephane Kasriel, Meta’s success in the crypto ecosystem requires tapping into the $100 billion worth creator economy with greater portability than the current web service.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

On September 29, Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, announced that Facebook and Instagram users in the US can now connect their wallets and share their digital collectables.<\/p>\n

The company said that users of both platforms would be able to cross-post digital collectables they own and connect their associated wallets on Facebook and Instagram.<\/p>\n

Meta has also announced that they will not charge creators fees in their digital collectables marketplace until 202; rather, the company is focusing on helping creators earn a living.<\/p>\n

Until the mentioned date, Meta has planned to pay for the blockchain-related gas costs from their own pocket.<\/p>\n

The company also has plans to make its non-NFT features on Instagram seamlessly accessible globally. It has added support for Coinbase and Dapper wallets to complement its earlier integrations with Rainbow,\u00a0MetaMask<\/dfn><\/i><\/b><\/u><\/a>, and Trust wallets.<\/p>\n

In addition to Instagram, a non-NFT test on Facebook is also in development, with the NFT feature being rolled out to some US creators in early July this year.<\/p>\n

Since NFTs help build authentic intellectual property, this is one of the key drivers expected to push the sector to a $97.6 billion valuation by 2028, according to a report by Research and Markets.<\/p>\n

Besides Meta, other social media platforms, including Twitter and Reddit, are also taking their NFT drives to new heights.<\/p>\n
