NFTs on Instagram: Today we’re announcing everyone on Facebook and Instagram in the US can now connect their wallets and share their digital collectibles.
This includes the ability for people to cross-post digital collectibles that they own across both Facebook and Instagram.
Additionally, everyone in the 100 countries where digital collectibles are available on Instagram can now access the feature.
As we continue rolling out digital collectibles on Facebook and Instagram, we’ve started giving people the ability to post digital collectibles that they own across both Facebook and Instagram.
This will enable people to connect their digital wallets once to either app in order to share their digital collectibles across both.
The user interface shows how to cross-post a digital collectible on Facebook and Instagram.

NFTs
Every day, creators inspire people and push culture forward around the world.
With the incredible opportunity of blockchain technology, they can now leverage new tools to earn income, and fans can support their favorite creators by purchasing digital collectibles – art, images and videos, music or trading cards – as non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
Starting this week, select creators and collectors can share their digital collectibles on Instagram.
