NFT
If you’ve seen a popular non-fungible token (NFT) on Twitter and are wondering who else shared it or who owns it, there’s a new tool to help answer that question.
NFT Inspect, a popular NFT analysis and community tool recently brought back to life, has launched a new Chrome browser extension that provides real-time data on popular NFT collections often used as Twitter profile pictures (PFPs).
The Twitter NFT Search tool, which is also available in beta as a web version, allows users to search for different ways an NFT is used on Twitter, either as a profile picture or shared as a tweet. The tool can also analyze individual wallet addresses by crawling through publicly available blockchain data to determine wallet NFT usage. The browser extension can also display rarity characteristics of individual NFTs.
“Twitter has become the central communication platform for all things crypto and NFTs, where industry news, project updates and community discussions happen in real time,” Oliver Cohen, president of NFT Inspect, told CoinDesk. “However, we noticed a lack of comprehensive tools that can harness the power of Twitter and provide users with a complete solution for tracking, analyzing and engaging the crypto and NFT ecosystem.”
Cohen explained that the tool uses “AI algorithms” to power its Chrome extension and detect NFT-related content on Twitter. He added that the tool can be used to track the popularity of different NFT collections and the growth of certain communities around an NFT project. “These insights help users make informed decisions about NFT investment and community involvement.”
The browser extension recognizes NFTs on the Ethereum, Polygon, and Solana blockchains and does not support video or GIF files.
NFT Inspect was resurrected under new ownership in March after announcing its reluctant closure in January. Following the acquisition, it has continued to build out its suite of tools to help NFT traders track market trends, establishing a community council of notable NFT influencers, including Waleswoosh, Elanaaeth, Wabdoteth, and Franklinisbored. In May, NFT Inspect announced a partnership with Polygon Labs “to develop new and distinctive NFT use cases, encourage wider adoption, and provide a smooth user experience for their respective communities.”
