Meta first announced support for NFTs on its Instagram in May this year, before expanding that to Facebook.
An international expansion of the digital collectibles feature for users in Africa, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and the Americas in August brought the support to 100 countries. The company also added wallet support for Coinbase Wallet and Dapper, on top of earlier support for Rainbow, Trust Wallet, and MetaMask.
The feature also expanded to three blockchains – Ethereum, Polygon and Flow.
