Twitter has announced that users can now request tips in Bitcoin through its app using its tip bot. The company is also looking into allowing users to connect their crypto wallets and authenticate ownership of NFTs they tweet with a special badge.

Tipping with Bitcoin is now available

The plans of Twitter allowing tips with Bitcoin in their app had already been leaked, but the feature was not available until Twitter launched globally on iOS and later on Android this Thursday. In addition to Bitcoin, Twitter will also allow its users to connect nine traditional payment providers, including Venmo and Cash App, to their profiles to accept tips. Twitter will not process the payments themself.

The Bitcoin tips will be processed through Strike, a Bitcoin wallet app that runs on the Lightning Network protocol. Lightning is designed to enable faster and cheaper transactions with Bitcoin.

Twitter plans to support NFT authentication

During a press briefing on Thursday, Twitter said it also plans to support authentication for NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, by allowing people to connect their crypto wallets. "NFT authentication will come in the form of a badge shown on profile pictures marking the owner's NFT as authentic," a spokesperson for the company said.

Twitter is not new to the NFT space and had even released their own NFTs earlier this year. The main reason  Twitter is looking into this new feature is likely the increasing popularity of NFTs and the fact that much of the social media activity in the NFT space takes place on Twitter. Many users have their NFT as their profile picture or share their NFTs on the platform. The authentication badge will make it easier for users to identify if someone owns the NFT shown on their profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
