"
It’s Creator Week @meta, and we’re announcing a bunch of new tools to help creators build their businesses — including a way to make and sell digital collectibles (NFTs) right on @Instagram
Blockchain has a role in this because it can enable entirely new business models for creators that give them more control over their work and audiences, and how they monetize. But for this tech to truly boost economic opportunity for creators, it needs to be easier to use.

Notably, Meta has been on the go when it comes to restructuring the company's social networks to meet the growing demands. Starting with the rebranding to Meta, and a venture to building a metaverse which wasn't very much welcomed by the community due to its too "basic designs", however, the social media giant is yet to stop developing new structures to offer its users more ways to communicate, get involved and monetize their contents.
In more news, the tech/social media giant has recently integrated communications into its messaging app - WhatsApp.
