The Impact of Musk’s Social Media on the Halting of NFT Hexagon Avatars

Elon Musk’s social media platform X removes NFT profile picture feature

Social media platform X, led by Elon Musk, has recently discontinued its feature that allowed premium subscribers to use non-fungible tokens (NFTs) as profile pictures. This service, which had been available since January 2022, offered an innovative way for users to showcase their NFT collections. However, the feature has now been quietly removed amidst updates that included peer-to-peer payments and AI tools. The removal of NFT support follows a similar move by other tech giants like Meta, indicating a shift in the industry’s stance on NFTs.
