It is fascinating to see multiple platforms endorsing trends and technologies to engage with their community. Since the NFTs are trending globally, many platforms are supporting the tech one way or the other.
This not only engages more community but also helps people to connect with what matters to them. Recently one of the social media giants (YouTube) indicated adding a possible NFT surprise on their platform to attract more creators.
YouTube CEO Addition
In a letter published on Tuesday on the company blog, YouTube CEO, Susan Wojcicki, expressed the platform’s plan for the year 2022. The platform has included one priority that caught the eye of many people. That priority is the possible addition of Non-fungible tokens or NFT features for the video creators on YouTube.
The idea is in the pipeline and has no final look to disclose to the audience. On top of this no additional details on the blog to speculate further plans for this addition.
However, YouTube CEO claimed that the YouTube team would utilize the developments in the Web3 framework considering it as an inspiration.
The Blog stated, “The past year in the world of crypto, nonfungible tokens (NFTs), and even decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) has highlighted a previously unimaginable opportunity to grow the connection between creators and their fans.”
