Social media giant Meta (FB) has started to test Polygon and Ethereum-based non-fungible tokens (NFTs) among a selected group of creators on Facebook, according to Meta's Product Manager Navdeep Singh.
- Singh posted a series of screenshots of the update, which includes a "digital collectibles" tab that will allow Facebook users to showcase NFTs on their profile page.
- In May, Meta made its first foray into NFTs by testing NFT integrations on Instagram.
- "We're expanding our test so more creators around the world can display their NFTs on Instagram," Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said on June 21. "We'll bring this feature to Facebook soon too – starting with a small group of U.S. creators – so people can cross-post on Instagram and Facebook."
- The NFT market is experiencing a downturn alongside a lull in the wider crypto market. NFT trading volume on OpenSea during June was its lowest in 11 months, according to Dune Analytics.

Pudgy Penguins is building a multi-vertical consumer IP platform — combining phygital products, games, NFTs and PENGU to monetize culture at scale.
What to know:
Pudgy Penguins is emerging as one of the strongest NFT-native brands of this cycle, shifting from speculative “digital luxury goods” into a multi-vertical consumer IP platform. Its strategy is to acquire users through mainstream channels first; toys, retail partnerships and viral media, then onboard them into Web3 through games, NFTs and the PENGU token.
The ecosystem now spans phygital products (> $13M retail sales and >1M units sold), games and experiences (Pudgy Party surpassed 500k downloads in two weeks), and a widely distributed token (airdropped to 6M+ wallets). While the market is currently pricing Pudgy at a premium relative to traditional IP peers, sustained success depends on execution across retail expansion, gaming adoption and deeper token utility.
