Meta took to Twitter their announcement in which users can now post digital collectibles that they own via their digital wallets and share them across Instagram and Facebook.

We’re introducing the ability to post digital collectibles across @facebook and @instagram. You can now connect your digital wallet to either app to share your #NFTs on both.

Based on the same update, Meta said that they now support wallet connections with Rainbow, MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Coinbase Wallet and Dapper, as well as the ability to post digital collectibles minted on the Flow blockchain. While supported blockchains include Ethereum, Polygon and Flow.

Meta noted that there are no fees in posting and sharing a digital collectible.

This move comes after the company’s expansion to 100 countries in Africa, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and the Americas for access to Instagram NFT functions last August 4th. Meta, however, did not specify which countries they have expanded to.

Apparently, there is no general support in the Philippines yet. But users in supported countries will see a ‘Digital collectibles’ setting on their Instagram’s hamburger menu in which they can connect their digital wallet accordingly.
