Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, is set to trial the minting and sale of NFTs.
In Brief:
Instagram will trial the functionality for users to mint, showcase and sell NFTs.
Creators will be able to sell digital collections on the platform.
It’s being tested on a small group of creators in the US market.
What does this mean?
