You Can Now Buy Tweets as NFTs
NFT mania is in full swing, and you can now buy your favourite tweets with crypto. A project called Valuables by Cent has recently launched, allowing Twitter users to sell their tweets minted on the Matic blockchain as an NFT.
Some of the tweets have sold for thousands of dollars. Currently the most expensive tweet sold is this one by CZ of Binance.
How it Works
Anyone can make an offer on any tweet. Then it’s up to the author of the tweet to login and accept the offer. You can use a web browser crypto wallet such as metamask extension to interact with the website and claim your ETH payment, with 95% going to the tweet author and 5% going to the project as sale commission.

Why Would You Pay to “Own” a Tweet?
Owning any digital content can be a financial investment, hold sentimental value, and create a relationship between collector and creator. Like an autograph on a baseball card, the NFT itself is the creator’s autograph on the content, making it scarce, unique, and valuable.
