Elon Musk criticized Twitter for supporting NFT

Tesla CEO Elon Musk believes that Twitter is only “wasting” developer resources to implement NFT support, while the platform has more important problems.

Recently, the developers of the social network Twitter began testing the use of NFT for user avatars. But according to Elon Musk, Twitter leadership is paying attention to less than the most important functions. He emphasized that under every message about cryptocurrencies, scammers appear, luring gullible investors, and it would be better to spend developer resources on this problem.

“Twitter is wasting engineering resources on this bullshit while cryptocurrency scam bots are popping up in every conversation!” wrote Mask.

MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor responded to Musk’s message. He thinksthat user verification can help against fraudulent bots, moreover, using transactions in bitcoins through the Lightning Network.

Recall that now users of the Twitter application on Apple devices have the ability to set NFT images as an avatar. An active Twitter Blue subscription is also required to access the feature.

Earlier, Tesla added the ability to purchase various goods with company symbols for the Dogecoin cryptocurrency.
