### From Mosseri’s announcement video

“I want to acknowledge upfront that NFTs and blockchain technologies are all about distributing trust. distributing power. But Instagram is fundamentally a centralized platform, so there’s a tension there. So one of the reasons why we’re starting small is we want to make sure that we can learn from the community.”

“We want to make sure that we work out how to embrace those tenets of distributed trust and distributed power, despite the fact that we are a centralized platform. We do think that one of the unique opportunities we have to to make Web3 technology accessible to a much broader range of people. And NFTs specifically we think will be interesting not only to creators who create NFT art, but also to people who want to collect it.”
