The Hedera NFT ecosystem recently implemented the Twitter NFT profile picture functionality in its social media profile. The new implementation was part of its plans in preparing for an NFT summer. The Hedera team also went further to share its journey from Hedera to Ethereum with its thousands of followers.
The Twitter NFT profile picture feature was introduced in January. Since its introduction, the feature has gradually become more utilized. Although Twitter only approves the NFT profiles for verified individuals and iOS users, the feature has still gained adoption.
Additionally, Twitter only supports the use of Ethereum-based NFTs with the ERC-721 token standard. This limited support for NFTs triggered Hedera to bridge its NFT from the Hedera ecosystem to the Ethereum ecosystem. Holders of Hedera NFTs have noted that the ecosystem has some intriguing features that open the possibility for a Twitter collaboration.
The Hedera Ecosystem
Hedera supports NFT minting with low gas fees. While that is a unique selling point, the Hedera ecosystem even has more to offer. The Hedera team has built a structure for offsetting carbon. The DOV token incentivizes community participants who want to offset some carbon from the ecosystem.
The ecosystem is completely decentralized and the team is committed to reducing the negative impact of Carbon on the globe. The Hedera innovation makes its ecosystem suitable to be integrated with Twitter.
In May, Elon Musk expressed his desire to acquire Twitter for about $44 billion. While the deal is currently on hold, Hedera’s roadmap and goals for the NFT community align with one of Musk’s major goals. Elon Musk has worked hard to reduce the impact of Carbon on the environment, and Tesla’s products absolutely support a greener earth.
Notably though, whether the deal pulls through or not, Hedera’s framework for digital art seems solid. Should Twitter consider adopting other non-Ethereum NFTs in the future, the Hedera NFTs will just be a perfect match for the social media corporation.
