First discovered by app researcher Jane Manchun Wong through is a new Collectibles tab in the user’s profile page on the platform. According to the leakster, this is where Twitter users can showcase their NFT collection in an image gallery-like view. Tapping on a thumbnail in Collectibles will provide visitors with a full view of the artwork that is represented by the NFT, as well as the option to view its complete details. The latter – according to the screenshot provided by Wong – provides information such as the artwork’s description, where it is hosted and verified, as well as its creator’s identity and their other properties.
— Jane Manchun Wong (@wongmjane) October 24, 2021 It is not known how users can link their Twitter account to an NFT marketplace or gallery at this time. And while Wong’s image lists OpenSea as a likely platform that may be supporting this alleged feature, it is very likely that she added this merely as an example. Only time will tell whether Collectibles will officially become a part of Twitter or become another feature that would not see the light of day. That being said, having a social media platform with an NFT gallery would definitely be useful to both creators and collectors alike, especially for showcasing their collection to thousands of would-be buyers with plenty of Ethereum to splurge.
