According to popular tech blogger Jane Manchun Wong, social media giant Twitter is working on a "wallet prototype "that will make it possible to deposit and withdraw cryptocurrencies.

Twitter rolled out a feature that made it possible for users to tip content creators with Bitcoin last September. 

In mid-February, Twitter-native cryptocurrency tipping also became available for Ethereum users.
